Abandoned in the Wasteland: Children, Television, & the First Amendment Paperback - 1999
by Newton Minow; Craig Lamay (With)
First line
EVERY DAY, MILLIONS OF AMERICANS LEAVE THEIR CHILDREN IN the care of total strangers.
From the rear cover
Broadcasters, parents, public officials, and teachers have all abandoned our children to a wasteland of vacuous, often violent television programing. In this eloquent book, Newton Minow and Craig LaMay persuasively demonstrate that this is a false application of the First Amendment. Broadcasters are required by law to serve the public interest, and the Supreme Court and Congress have said that service to children is a broadcaster's obligation under law, they remind us; the First Amendment can be used on behalf of children, to help make television a force that will nurture and not harm them.
