You're equating violence with tv?

Cars drove with leaded fuel back then. Tens of thousands of people were traumatized by murdering people in Vietnam.

There's certainly a correlation with media exposure and behavior.

If this wasn't a fact, then Commercials wouldn't exist.

Your example is absurd.

Propaganda is extremely effective.

Um, no, I'm not equating violence with TV. I'm doing the opposite: showing that violence doesn't correllate well with censorship.

It's true that corporations have been hopping on the bandwagon of social movements to try to see if they can squeeze a buck out of them, but they didn't create the social movements.

I'm not sure what you're trying to say in this reply.

It sounds like you're agreeing with my response.
