Thursday Throwdown: Polygamy on TV in America



Courtesy of Tyler and Caleb, here's this week's proposition:

"American television has a responsibility to promote legal and socially acceptable lifestyles. Glamorizing polygamy through TV is irresponsible and violates the social contract TV providers have with the people."

Here are some links for you to consider:

Once you've had a chance to study the issue and form an opinion on the proposition above, please leave it in the comments section below this post. Don't forget to write in complete sentences and attach your name to the post.

We'll debate the issue at some point this morning.

P.S. If you have a problem with this topic, you'll get your chance to come up with a topic soon enough.....
