Parents TV vs Tim Minear:
Wherein we learn that the huge spike in indecency complaints lodged at the FCC in third quarter 2005 came as a result of one organization: yep, the Parents Television Council. The PTC filed 23,542 of the 23,547 complaints the FCC received in July, mostly against the same two programs, including "The Inside" on Fox.
The complaint (and a handy online website to file it) is available here:

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.
Does the FCC give the same weight to on-line generated forms as it does to snail-mailed ones? I think it's safe to say that the majority of people who submitted that form didn't even read it, let alone watch the show in question.
