Gun control on cable…well just on advertising, not on real shows that you watch:
BC – Just weeks after the mass shooting at the Sandy Hook Elementary School in Newtown, Conn., Time Warner Cable has initiated a company-wide ban on certain gun ads.
“We no longer accept ads showing semi-automatic weapons and guns pointed at people,” Time Warner Cable said in a statement. “We stand by this policy. If it’s essential to a business owner to show this kind of imagery in their commercials, there are other advertising options in the marketplace.”

Yep. RT @andylevy: I'm assuming TWC is still accepting TV shows and movies showing semi-automatic weapons and guns pointed at people?
