One small contribution
My one contribution to the current discussions on the use of vulgarity, sexuality and indecency on television is to recommend this article (it's a PDF) reprinted from a November, 2001 issue of The New Yorker about the impact of Standards & Practices on television programs' usage of potentially and actually controversial terms. It's interesting reading, because it's a glimpse into what S&P was like at that moment in time, and how things have changed in various directions since then.
