Berkeley Censor Media?

To the Editor: 

 

Ms. Block appears to have gotten the mean edge of the Berkeley media 

censorship wedge. Sure, Susan Block, EdD., whose books and articles are in public libraries' collections, aren't the greatest production-wise (I recommend OXYGEN Network's Sue Johanson's Sunday Night Sex Show). The real irony is that B-TV has been airing and citizens apparently not objecting to the rampant sexism conveyed in the Isla Vista RAW material. Isla Vista is a community adjacent to Santa Barbara and the University of California, Santa Barbara; most inhabitants are affiliated with the University of California.
