I understand where you are coming from, but may I add something here?
To say that something always preached against is now okay is to say that you are now a hypocrite. Certainly not a viable stance.
Also, IMO it is still something that doesn't belong in the home.
Consider:
III VIOLENCE
Number of murders seen on TV by the time an average child finishes elementary school: 8,000 (!)
Number of violent acts seen on TV by age 18: 200,000 (!)
Percentage of Americans who believe TV violence helps precipitate real life mayhem: 79
There are a number of other stats that show the detrimental effect of tv.
If we are to set no wicked thing before our eyes, how can we condone tv?

It displays:
nudity
murder
homosexuality
promiscuity
alcoholism
drug addiction

This list could be astronomically larger.
