[lbo-talk] Re: Corporate Porn to Kids

[Michael Dawson -PSU]

Brian admits my point, which is that MTV isn't good for 11-year-olds, and
that MTV markets to 11-year-olds.  He then reverts to blaming parents for
letting kids watch it.  That's the official Republican position, and the
heroin dealer's excuse.

As to what I want:

a) for people who don't like Nader to stop accusing him of insanity for
saying quite sane things like "corporations target kids with pornography";
and

b) for Nader and other anti-corporate leaders to use their moments on TV to
criticize MTV's (and other corporate productions') cynical exploitation of
kids and to argue for the massive expansion of public media funding as a
countervailing force.
