Push to ban 'offensive' TV shows - TV & Radio - Entertainment - theage.com.au

Ms Draper said that once the minister had a reserve power to pull programs from the air, it would encourage broadcasters to better observe the code of practice.

"We don't have that power now, but once we do have that ability, the self-regulators on commercial free-to-air will certainly be examining the code a lot more closely so that they don't end up getting their programs yanked from the air.

"I am concerned about children in Australia, quite frankly, and in my electorate, and there are at least 20 of us in the parliamentary party who will be pushing for this."


Uh? Who the hell voted for Helen Coonan's morality view of the world? Australia you got the government you deserve.
