China might be onto something - if a bit extreme

FOXNews.com - China Bans TV, Radio Ads for Bras, Underwear -

Regulators have already targeted ads using crude or suggestive language, behavior, and images, tightening their grip on television and radio a few weeks ahead of a twice-a-decade Communist Party congress at which some new senior leaders will be appointed.

The latest ban by the State Administration of Radio, Film and Television, or SARFT, also bans advertisements for sexual aids including tonics and sex toys, along with "inelegant images" in ads for what it referred to simply as "adult products."

Don't you wish we could just turn down the "crude" button on media? It ain't funny, kids, just gross and stupid.
