Let us ignore for the moment the plain fact that the vast majority of what is shown on video and movie-theater screens is beyond the reach of federal regulators, and that the courts have historically favored free expression when it comes to adjudging The Arts. We live in a time when the national homicide rate seems to have no upper limit, when juvenile crudeness masquerades as comedy and when much of popular music conveys brutality, misogyny and rancor....
