I would totally pay money to have someone walk through airport security with no bags, no jewelry, no cell phone or keys or money, and wearing nothing but a speedo. The security people would be totally befuddled - they'd have to let him JUST WALK THROUGH without being able to ask him to take anything off.

First, let me say that I believe that you should be able to broadcast anything you want at any time on any medium, be it cable or broadcast or FM radio or whatever.

That said, I have a great solution for preventing children from seeing "offensive" stuff on TV: get rid of your television. With the possible exceptions of the Discovery channel and the History channel (for children and adults), and maybe Sesame Street for children there is virtually no content on television that's worth watching, so why watch any of it at all. Cable is expensive and all it does is suck the IQ right out of your brain.

Read a book. Paint a picture. Go to a museum. Go play outside in the park. There are better ways to be entertained than to sit in front of the old boob tube.
