> Compared to the US media we have incredibly liberal standards of taste and decency, especially past the 9pm watershed. I think there is a bit of a misunderstanding on this issue. Compared to US broadcast media, sure. But you can find quite distasteful and indecent content on US TV 24/7. You just aren't as likely to find it on broadcast TV or basic cable. The FCC is really only concerned with broadcast TV. You'll find uncensored shows on channels like Comedy Central at night and beyond basic cable, everything is fair game.
