Watching Studio60

Again - not a commission I know a whole lot about - so off I went to Google and pulled up this web site for the FCC. Pretty dry reading, but informative, nonetheless. It is amazing how much information and knowledge I am gaining through this blogging job. I set out to get information about Studio 60, and end up in some really weird places - but it’s fun and informative and keeps me off the streets.
Just as an aside and because it is somewhat related to the FCC - My mother, who still lives in England, does a General Knowledge crossword puzzle every Saturday and, without access to the Internet, and despite the largest private collection of reference books I have every seen outside of a public library, she can’t always get the answers, so our weekly Saturday morning call always ends up with her reading me clues and I then go to the faithful Google and retrieve her answers. One of these days she will win the 500 pound prize and I will be very proud of her!
However, the point of my telling you this is that one word she had me find was Comstockery! Do you know what it means? Well, the clue was that it is related somewhat to the FCC. It originates from a gentleman called Anthony Comstock and was defined by George Bernard Shaw as “censorship because of perceived obscenity or immorality”. To read more follow the link - it is highly entertaining. I am not suggesting that the FCC in any way censors the media or arts, but following The Christmas Show - this word did come to mind.
