I can speak from personal experience about the addictive power of pornography, but I never knew it could be this bad. Television censors and the MPAA should take note of this.
Only 7, and he’s addicted to porn
“KAOHSIUNG – A seven-year-old Taiwanese boy is getting expert help for his porn addiction.”

Amen, Vietnam!
No condom adverts please – we’re eating
HANOI (Reuters) – Vietnam has banned television and radio from airing advertisements for condoms, sanitary pads and other products at dinner time.

A Liberal Slant to the News? by Nat Hentoff
In my experience, the two groups most acutely sensitive to criticism are cops and journalists. During the Giuliani years, fear of retribution was so great that some New Yorkers were hesitant to ask a cop for his or her badge number.
As for journalists, Bernard Goldberg’s book Bias: A CBS Insider Exposes How the Media Distort the News (Regnery) has been attacked by, among others, Tom Shales (The Washington Post), Michael Kinsley (Slate), Tom Goldstein (outgoing dean, Columbia University Graduate School of Journalism), and Eric Alterman (The Nation), as if Goldberg were a shabby turncoat and an incompetent journalist besides.
Moreover, one of Goldberg’s former colleagues at CBS News, Eric Engberg, has actually accused Goldberg of having committed “an act of treason.” And Eric Alterman has signed to write a book proving there is no liberal bias in the media.
