“Geriatric Holocaust Porn”
from Frank Rich’s current column in the NYTimes:
Last week President Bush signed a Family Entertainment and Copyright Act that allows “family-friendly” companies to sell filter technology that cleans up DVD’s of Hollywood movies without permission or input from the films’ own authors and copyright holders. That sounds innocuous enough until you learn that even “Schindler’s List” isn’t immune from the right’s rigid P.C. code. As the owner of CleanFlicks, the American Fork, Utah, company that goes further and sells pre-sanitized DVD’s, once explained to The New York Times: “Every teenager in America should see that film. But I don’t think my daughters should see naked old men running around in circles.” And so Big Brother can intervene to protect our kids from all that geriatric Holocaust porn.
