  • oh YAWN

    How many times must we read this article? Didn't you just publish a "TV is evil" column not three months ago? And three months previously? And last year? And...and...and.....YAWN.

    I have three children. All three watch TV occasionally, just as I let them eat sweets and stay up late occasionally. Shockingly, they are all still alive and thriving.

    Move on. Haven't we got more important things to cover, like, say, the war in Iraq? I worry more that this damn war will still be going on when my boys are draft age than I do that an occasional episode of Blue's Clues or a commercial for McDonald's will hurt them.
