The Harm from Sex and Violence on Television and Practical Solutions to Protect Society

Pornography is now widely available on television to children and adults, in the Middle East, Europe, America, and much of the rest of the world. I have been involved in various efforts to curb access to pornography for twenty-two years, as a federal prosecutor charging the purveyors of pornography with crimes under United States law, and now as an activist against pornography. It is my observation, after my more than 20 years of service to this cause, that there is no good whatsoever that comes from watching pornography – for adults but especially for children.
