Watch said the put faulty and biased analysis under a scary title to
try to impose its views on the rest of the TV world. The won't be
satisfied with television content until they convince the government to
enforce their personal, selective judgments,' TV Watch executive
director jim Dyke said in response to a report released Tuesday under
the title '.' Over the years, the has released numerous studies aimed
at influencing lawmakers and regulators to believe that parents arent
competent enough to make television-viewing decisions for their own
families,' Dyke said in a statement. 'This newest study follows
previous formulas perfectly: another study with a scary title that uses
faulty analysis, biased methodology and suspect omissions to influence
the debate and raise money. TV Watch was formed by the networks as an
online response to the push by the PTC and others for indecency
regulation. TV Watch advocates parental control with an emphasis on the
V-chip/ratings system.
