The people who are complaining about the station not broadcasting the show fall into two categories:

1) People who don’t even live within broadcast distance of the station and have no reason to complain and therefore don’t matter.

2) People who do live within broadcast distance of the station and apparently are out of touch with the values and culture of the community, and should therefore either move to one that is more to their liking or quit whining. Their opinions also don’t matter

Fox has some great shows and this show should be nowhere near their standards. I’d be VERY SUPRISED if this show made it to a second season. The Osbournes are not funny or interesting.

RE: Bruno

People with some morality are NOT what is wrong with America. People that think anything goes in a society are what is wrong with America and is becoming the downfall of this country.In addition as far as “blue language” is concerned- it is all anyone hears all day every day while we are out and about and earning a living, it would certainly be a nice change to not be inundated with it at home also without having to shut our TV off completely.Even if we use profanity on occasion some of us like to hear other types of grammar at times.

To all: This never ending rhetoric about parents monitoring their children and turning the channel is so asinine. Parents should not have to hover over the TV sets 24/7 because there is a proliferation of filth. What are people to view that don’t find this inane garbage entertaining? Liberals are not the only ones with rights in this country.

Also, as several have justly stated, it is a PRIVATE station. Now I understand that a lot of you seem to like the government making all the decisions but some of us still believe in free market enterprise.This is not censorship and thank you Fox!

The Fox network should step in and force the affiliates to run the show. It is censored. Personally the show is not my cup of tea, but the network needs the viewing audience to be there. Those who feel this strongly about show content should live in Salem, Mass. or just not watch. I don’t watch but the station affilitate has no valid reason for undermining the network programming effort. The ratings will take care of that show!

The Osborne’s are a train wreak and at the very least vulgar and mind polluting.

If so has it occurred to you that you are derelict in your duties as a parent? Seriously airing the Osborne’s has nothing to do with the First Amendment, get an education!

Just look at all the parents in here who are not just willing but in fact ecstatic that the all-wise TV station is making their parenting decisions for them.

“Wow, I’m glad I don’t have to make decisions,” they moan, “decisions are HARD. Good thing Pappa Fox tells my kids what’s ok and what’s not. Teach them the morality that the execs want the nation to have, Fox! Yay! Oooh, shiny!”

How about parent your own kids, you idiots. If YOU don’t think it’s appropriate for YOUR kids, then stop YOUR kids from watching it. Your retarded legislation of morality is stopping EVERYONE from watching it, and — guess what — not everyone in the area are your dumbass kids who can’t seem to handle any blue language.

You’re what’s wrong with America, you idiots.

I’m not sure praise or condemnation changes anything here. Some of you need to turn your TV’s off and go outside. Forget the stupid thing; it’s a waste of your time and life. If you’ll invest in your friends and family and things that actually matter, you’ll find the TV is useless for anything except weather reports. Some of you really need to get a hobby and quit taking TV show decisions so personal. Grow up!

Good for Fox19. Coming from Cincinnati I can’t tell you how many kids would have been exposed to this. With all the lazy parents around here someone has to play the role of the Parent.

Every television station is responsible by law for the content they air. The general manager is responsible if someone in the community decides to sue the station for indecency. Remember, since the Janet Jackson superbowl incident the fines for indecency were increased dramatically. Censorship is when the government dictates that something can’t be seen, heard, or read. This is just a general manager protecting his station.

I personally feel what Fox19 did was totally stupid. First off any responsible parent would have their child in bed or at least on their way to bed.For petes sake it was 9:30 at night and as far as I know the kids did have school today.I feel that if they can show shows like Family Guy @ 8:30pm they could have shown that. I do not feel that Family guy is made for children yet they play that at a primetime that kids can watch.We need to quit catering to the idiots of this country

Good for you Cincinnati! We had a station down here in Florida that did the same thing and I bet that you are not the only two. The Osbournes have no redeeming value and if they must be on TV then please put them on after 11 pm.

Remember, a TV station using public airwaves must act in the public trust. If they feel this is not appropriate for a timeslot, they have a right to refuse it. It’s not censorship either - go read up on your broadcast law. Yes, it might be hypocritical based on other Fox shows, but the Osbournes are offensive as a family. They way they exploit themselves (and Ozzy, who is barely “with it”) is not funny. And if you teach in public schools, you know that parents aren’t always a good filter.

I saw the first minute (or less) when this aired in Albuquerque last night. In that time Sharon, the son and daughter all used curse words that were bleeped and little avatars were placed over their mouths. Apparently the family that cusses together stays together. There is no redeeming value in a program like that. This family needs to be on cable or not on television at all.

Ummm…there was a rating for the show, TV-14, to warn parents about the show. This was shown right at the beginning of the show.

I love the other guy who is embarrassed to live in Cincinnati. Please leave as soon as possible, preferably to the “left” coast. On principle, I suspect you’d agree if it were hard core porn.

FOX19 is a business and allowed to determine what product they sell, when, and where. If you don’t like it, go somewhere you can get what you want. Frankly, with a 7 and 8 year old in the house, I’m more than happy to see them take a reasonable tactic (airing the program, but in a later time slot).

Simply amazing, why is FOX 19 trying to be the parent. A warning was issued before the show started. Would it be too hard for parents to turn the station and not allow their younger children to watch it. Oh, I forgot, parents are too STUPID to know whether it is appropriate for their children.

Good for the tv station. Don’t waste your time buying a new digital tv. All they have is crap and brainwashing anyway on our airwaves. situational ethics has failed promoting any decency. free speech has developed into perversion by the left. The right is doing nothing and has become equal to the left.

i’m glad they pushed it back to a later time. It’s crap. (notice that they didn’t cancel it)

my only question is, would Fox19 still feel the need to sensor other programs that it felt weren’t suitable for children or that they politically disagreed with? Like a documentary on evolution, or climate change etc..

remember, they call it “programming” for a reason.

Way to go Fox, These whiners are all the perverts who would have 24 hour hard porn on network televison. They only think of themselves and could care less about anybody else. They still have their tasteless and crass MTV to watch. let them cry.

Fox made the right decision. There are too many unsupervised minors exposed to the raunchy, disgusting programs already on TV. Society has gone down the gutter. I say enough is enough.
The audience (customer) deserves better than the Osborn’s and other junk reality shows. It is not censorship; it is called responsible programming. Bravo Fox 19.

This was not censorship..it was an exercise in good judgement. Most of our nation’s great problems, including our economic problems, have as their root decaying moral values. Whether we have the stomach to own up to it or not, we have become an immoral people left with little more than the pretense of morality.

Once again, liberals play the role of fool oh so well. My gosh, they seem so practiced at it. They get every key point backwards, again, with distinct predictability. On cue they demand more violent and more crude programming be shown regardless of public opinion of the many because they claim it is their right to view whatever they want. However, apparently private owners of stations do not have a right to censor their own programs. Yes, it is comforting to see that the leftists are dopes.
