In case you are curious, NZ broadcast TV is not as restricted as TV in the US. After 8:30 pm they show movies that are 'R' rated in the US completely uncut.
However, NZ TV is not 'anything goes.' One of the TV stations here has been punished by being banned from broadcasting from 12:00 pm to 5:00 pm next Monday (which is Labour Day here). Their offense: "some of the text messages shown during the G-rated programme breached standards of good taste and decency and children's interests, and encouraged denigration and discrimination on the basis of race."
I'm trying to imagine what they would do with FOX News here ...
