Cable TV channels enjoy the same sort of freedoms as satellite radio. I think the reason for the overall tame nature of advertising is two fold. Firstly you don't want to just **** off your customers. Secondly you don't want to give federal regulators extra incentive to come into the unregulated segment.
Secondly, what is he doing that is depraved? His private life seems quite normal to me.
Perhaps you would prefer life under the Taliban, or one of the other extremely oppressive regimes.
If so, why don't you move to an area of the world where you would find life more compatible?
Sirius gambled and maybe they also will crap out.
