Stop Jose Luis Sin Censura

Tue, 02/08/2011 - 11:37 — admin

Sex. Profanity. Nudity. Violence. Intense anti-gay themes, rhetoric and violence. Unedited. Condoned. Applauded. And all accessible over the public airwaves in the middle of the day when children are likely to be present in the audience. This is not a fair and accurate representation of the Latino community, it is extremely harmful to its viewers, especially gays and lesbians, and it airs twice daily on broadcast television across the country on EstrellaTV’s hit Spanish-language program, José Luis Sin Censura.

NHMC and GLAAD have filed a complaint with the FCC concerning José Luis Sin Censura. However, the FCC needs to also hear from you. Please act now to let the FCC know that you think Spanish-language broadcasters should have to play by the same rules as their English-language counterparts. Please fill out the form on this page to tell FCC Chairman Julius Genachowski how you feel.

Letter:

Dear Chairman Genachowski,

I urge you and your Commission to swiftly act on the complaint filed by the National Hispanic Media Coalition and the Gay &amp; Lesbian Alliance Against Defamation to deal with the Liberman Broadcasting/EstrellaTV show Jose Luis Sin Censura.  This pre-taped, Spanish-language show often contains unedited nudity and profanity, including many unedited instances of the F-word, in Spanish.  The show also contains defamatory language directed at gay and lesbian guests, Latinos, and women.  Verbal assaults escalate into physical attacks as other guests and audience members are encouraged to rush the stage and beat those perceived as gay or lesbian.  And this program airs during the late morning and afternoon hours when children are in the audience.

For years, the Commission has received complaints from our communities about the disgusting and harmful material present in this show.  Please take this opportunity to let Spanish-language broadcasters know that they are subject to the same rules as their English-language counterparts.

Sincerely,
