The PTC (yeah, I know, who?) is calling for all advertisers to boycott advertising on Dexter, the fantastic show on CBS on Sunday nights. The PTC is the Parents Television Coucil. And I am bobbysketch. Both of us are stars in the world of television.
Dexter is disgusting. What is fantastic about torturing and killing people? I don’t have kids but I am still boycotting the organizations that advertise on this show. To air a show like this required the assumption that TV does not affect future behavior or actions. Yet, millions are spent on advertising. Why? I can’t believe CBS would air such a show given the more frequent campus killings, etc. CBS has no class. They know it will affect weak minded people (the Dillon Clebold’s of the world) and yet they are airing the show anyway. Parents, police, and families of real victims of serial killers, should all be outraged.
