If NBC was aiming to create headlines with its hiring of Howard Stern as a judge on America’s Got Talent , the network can consider its mission accomplished. Of course, not all headlines are positive, especially not that highlighted by the always-grumpy Parents Television Council. Referring to Stern as Stern in a statement as “a performer who is synonymous with shock, profanity and obscenity,” the PTC added: “The once-proud broadcast network has lost its way and has made it clear it holds no concern whatsoever for children and families… Not coincidentally, in just over three weeks the network will be standing before the United States Supreme Court arguing for the right to use the F-word at any time of the day, even in front of children.” What do you think of Stern’s hiring? Will he make for an acceptable judge?
