Week 6: Television

The length of the video: 1:51

A description of the video in your own words: this is a typical Family Guy episode where the family sings about something controversial, in this case they are singing about the FCC after Peters starts his own unregulated television show in which he has content that the FCC would not approve of.

The name of the corresponding chapter in our textbook: Ch.9 Television mostly, but all the chapters mention the FCC.

A course related quiz question to go along with the video: Should books ever be censored by government?

An answer to the quiz question: Never! Books are media and the job of the media is to be the fourth estate of government. censored books would limit if not completely rid the media of that responsibility.
