Today in Links: Hurricane Wilma and FOX’s offending shows
*Deadly Wilma eyeing Florida: The record-tying 12th hurricane of the season is also the strongest recorded Atlantic hurricane ever. The Category 5 monster may reach Florida by this weekend. Hopefully Hurricane Wilma will lose some of it’s power before it reaches the US.
*4 Fox shows named worst for families: “The War at Home,” “Family Guy,” “American Dad,” and “The OC” were on the Parents Television Council’s annual list of family-offending television shows. “CSI” and “Desperate Housewives”were on the list, too. The PTC was only able to come up with 9 primetime shows they deemed fit for kids.
*Homeland Security Secretary: ‘I’m not a hurricane expert’: Alan Chertoff attempted to defend his handling of Hurricane Katrina by telling lawmakers he relied on Michael Brown and FEMA to make all the decisions. Great way to insure homeland security, Alan.
*Spain seeks arrest of U.S. soldiers: Spain issued an international arrest warrant for three American soldiers for the death of TV cameraman Jose Couso, who was killed when a US tank shelled the Palestinian Hotel in the advance into Baghdad in April 2003. A Ukranian Reuters camerman was also killed in the attack. At least 37 journalists have been killed in Iraq since 2003, according to the Committee to Protect Journalists.
*Spammers face jail in Nigeria: This letter will definitely come to you as a huge surprise, but Nigeria passed a new law that would penalize unsolicited email spammers with up to three years of jail or fines up to $7,700.
