The federal government should not regulate violence on television. Not a good idea for the government to get involved in this arena directly - they aren't the best managers of anything - and getting their dirty fingers into the entertainment world this deeply is not recommended in a free-speech society.

Websites should allow anonymous comments. Spam is a big problem - however - people often would say something/comment on a blog if it was easier for them to do so.

Print newspapers will not become obsolete. People still enjoy the tactile experience involved in reading printed material.
