- Now, why is all this (excuse the pun) breast-beating
going on around the baring of one of Miss Jacksons mammary glands? Why
has a viewer (whom I believe has now withdrawn her complaint) become so
incensed by this act? Would her time not have been far better spent by
protesting against the following which has been promoted by the acts of
"artists" on MTV since its inception as being normal and within
the bounds of decency:
-
- * drug taking and/or drug pushing (just about every modern
"pop" genre one can think of)
-
- * sexually loose morals (see above)
-
- * homosexuality (see above)
-
- * homophobia (paradoxically see above)
-
- * mysogony (see above)
-
- * murder (usually, but not always, "gangsta"
related. (Thankfully this encouragement from "artists" is still
quite rare, yet growing.)
-
- * murder of law enforcement officers (Cop Killer, I believe
was the title of that particularly edifying song which kick started this
phenomena)
-
- * satanism (see Marilyn Manson. Now MTV have very cleverly
used Mr Manson as, no matter how distasteful you may find his views he
is a very intelligent man)
-
- Based upon the above sorrowful track record of the filth
and slime with which MTV fills (or should I say saturates) its airtime
can it really be long in coming when MTV will start to release "music"
which promotes paedophilia as a "legitimate" pursuit? Sadly,
I think not.
-
- I am, or rather was, a fan of so called pop music up
until the late eighties and early nineties. Whatever happened to the politcial
element in pop music from the likes of U2 and others. Whatever happend
to pop music which simply put forward interesting ideas (such as Tears
For Fears, OMD, New Order etc) or just pure entertainment. Sure, when it
came to the eighties pop music you may have hated all of it. But, to the
best of my knowledge, none of it up to that point ever encouraged the deviant
acts as noted above except for drug use. And even then it was treated as
either individual experiment or was shown in an urban context as being
detrimental to society at large. White Lines, anyone?
-
- Compared to the above sad litany the exposure of Miss
Jacksons breast on TVseems not only trite but also completely unimportant
and, dare I say it, in todays climate, quite innocent.
-
- Yet today every act which is deviant, violent or harmful
to the human organism is PURPOSEFULLY, WILFULLY AND ENTHUSIASTICALLY portrayed,
and promoted by mainstream media, as being NORMAL. I could ask why. But
I, and many of your readers, Jeff, already know the answer to this one.
It can be summed up in three little letters- NWO. Nuff said.
