    Spike TV fined $50,000 for 'indecency' Johnathan Dough Capitol Bureau Chief In a surprise move, today, the Federal Communications Commission fined Viacom’s “Spike TV” 250,000 for indecency. FCC Chair Charles E Schoemer announced the fine earlier today, after complaints about the 1980’s shows “Miami Vice” and “The A-Team.” “Guns kill people and cause violence,” stated FCC Chair Schoemer. “We need to sense a strong and swift message to the world that guns are no longer welcome on television. Guns will no longer influence our kids. This proliferation of violence, decadence, and indecency will end and end now.” Schoemer, a Democrat,...

    This is my first vanity post...bear with me... Has anyone seen--and what do you think of--the show "Most Extreme Elimination Challenge" on Spike TV? I was flipping around channels last night after watching some Olympic action. Talk about the anti-Olympics! I must admit that I was laughing so hard I was crying, at times. This is an actual Japanese TV show that is dubbed over in English (ala "Iron Chef"). I'd like to know what you all think of it. Of course, I liked "Let's Bowl", so for what it's worth... . Maybe I'm sicker than I thought! I might...

    (Posting this in case some of you missed it. Have been watching this TV show for over a month & enjoying it. It's usually on at 10:30 EDT on Sunday nights--though I believe that this Sunday there'll be 2 episodes starting at 10 PM) You might not expect the cable network that broadcasts Stripperella, featuring a crime-fighting peeler voiced by Pamela Anderson, and Most Extreme Elimination Challenge, a program for those who "enjoy broken bones, splattering spleens, high impact hematomas, and watching people get them," to be a place where old-school conservatives might feel at home. But This Just In,...

    Along with the popular Comedy Central cartoon "South Park" whose creators Trey Parker and Matt Stone are out-spoken Republicans who made Saddam Hussein a lover of Satan and tree-hugging hippies as the enemy of the entire show. Conservatives now have Spike TV's "This Just In' which is a hilarously well-written program that totally smashes liberals. I love it. Thank you Spike TV. Tonight's episode had a character shoot a bazooka at Michael Moore who is portrayed as a complete slob (which he is..very accurate portrayal in my opinion)they also made fun of other liberal celebs such as Jeanne Garafalo, musician...

    A new TV show about a conservative columnist will be repeating today (3/14/04). Its first episode (about Ted Kennedy) ran on Friday but I missed it and so did a lot of freepers. If it's any good, expect it to come under fire from the Hollyweird leftists. If we're lucky, maybe we'll get something as good as "South Park."

We will keep the media informed of new developments." However, the news service pointedly observed that the economic climate did not deter Viacom for buying a controlling stake in Comedy Central from AOL...
