Came here to make the same point about breastfeeding. There is a common theme - that protection of free speech outweighs any damage caused by the existence of this content. Really? I fail to see this common theme... Let's not pretend tha

State-funded doesn't mean state-run. On it's face, I agree that government being remotely associated with media is a bad thing. The fact of the matter is, though, that the quality of reporting that comes out of publicly-funded news orga
