NBC allows s-word on live TV - no bleeps, no apologies, no nothin'
On Thursday, September 11th, at approximately 7:37 a.m. Eastern time, Today show guest Hans Lange emphatically said "Holy S--t" in an interview with host Matt Lauer. Instead of apologizing to the audience, Lauer and his crew broke out in extended laughter after Lange said the phrase. View the scene here (at the 3:50 mark in the video).
NBC uses a five-second delay in many live broadcasts, but chose not to use it here. As a result, NBC purposely allowed profane language to be used in violation of broadcast decency laws!Keep in mind that NBC thinks it owns the public airwaves and doesn't have a responsibility to control profanity on live broadcasts. Having sued the FCC in order to continue their filthy ways is just one more indication that they have no respect for children and families.If you are fed up the networks' arrogance in defiantly spewing profanity on live TV, take action!If you live in the Eastern Time zone, file a complaint with the FCC now! (The network did bleep tape delayed airings of the interview.)
Send Your Letter Now!
Sincerely,
Donald E. Wildmon, ChairmanOneMillionMoms.com
P.S. Please forward this to your family and friends!

Let's Pray For Ray Boltz
Boltz shocks Christian community with homosexuality admission
There is shock and sadness in the Christian community over word that famed Christian music singer Ray Boltz has publicly announced he’s living a homosexual lifestyle.
"If this is the way God made me, then this is the way I’m going to live...I really feel closer to God because I no longer hate myself." Those were the words of Ray Boltz in an interview with the Washington Blade about his decision to engage in homosexuality. Boltz, a father of four who was married for 33 years before officially divorcing his wife this year, is well-known for his widely acclaimed songs "Thank You" and "I Pledge Allegiance to the Lamb."
The disclosure by Boltz was stunning news to former homosexual Greg Quinlan who is now with the New Jersey Family Policy Council.
"I’m absolutely shocked. I've got some of his CDs and cassette tapes –- tells you how long it's been around. When he says he's born that way, we know now for a fact that that's false. In fact, just last year in March, the director of the Human Genome Project, Dr. Francis Collins, said this: homosexuality is not hardwired. There is no gay gene. We mapped the human genome. We now know there is no genetic cause for homosexuality."
When asked about Boltz's homosexuality, The Gospel Music Association -- the group which gives out the Dove Awards -- told the Blade, "We do not comment on the lifestyle choices of people in our community."
According to Quinlan, by making such a statement the GMA seems to be "enabling a behavior that is totally inconsistent, incongruent with the message of the gospel."
