Again...correlatoin does not equal causation. There are about a million othe factors between TV and Teen pregnancy.
Frankly, teens interest in sexual intercourse is likely more responsible for teen pregnancy than TV. it is also more liekly that teens who enjoy sex also tend to gravitate towards entertainment of a more mautre nautre (not the other way around as that study might suggest).
it is clear that the authors of the study had an agenda from the get go...that's just poor science and it takes us away from learning more to deal with the actual proibelm and it's underlying causes.
Sigh.
Peace,
Erik
