Big Brother on Big Brother

As Barrie Cassidy said on ABC 702 this morning, why would the government even bother with this?

Controversy over Channel Ten's reality program Big Brother Uncut galvanises Coalition MPs into action

Television programs considered offensive could be ordered off the air by the federal Communications Minister under a radical plan to be considered by the Howard Government.

Up to 20 Coalition MPs are backing a push for amendments to the Broadcasting Act that would give the Government power to ban programs that repeatedly breach their classification guidelines.

South Australian Liberal MP Trish Draper, who is spearheading the push, will meet Communications Minister Helen Coonan tomorrow to discuss the issue.

Conspiracy theory alert: is it to get rid of the nudity or to ensure the kiddies aren't exposed to evildoers such as Lefty Tim and his incendiary anti-Howard Government, pro-Union rhetoric ???

The answer to that is: well, maybe, maybe not. But the important thing here is that as soon as your country starts censoring what you get to watch - and putting this right in the hands of a single minister - get very, very, very concerned.
