The AP has a groundbreaking story revealing that “Marriage gets little respect on network TV shows that instead revel in the pleasures of extramarital and even kinky sex, according to a study released Tuesday.” I’m shocked that sex makes more interesting television than marriage.

But wait, there’s more. The AP also reports that there is a group who is disgruntled about sex on television.

The study by the Parents Television Council includes a strongly worded condemnation of prime-time TV, contending it “seems to be actively seeking to undermine marriage by consistently painting it in a negative light.”

Yes, there is a cabal of Hollywood moguls (and we all know that means “Jews”) who is plotting and scheming to undermine marriage. Idiots (the PTC, not the Jews). It couldn’t be that the shows are produced by capitalists who want to make money and have determined that catering to the demand in the marketplace is a good way to do that.

There is this annoying notion out there, of which this seems to be a manifestation, that humanity or its culture was at a state of perfection, either in Eden or possibly the 50s, and has been in constant decline ever since. It’s that damn jazz music or that damn rock & roll music or that damn sex on TV or that damn knowledge of good & evil & apples that is leading us all to ruin.
