- W150861010 abstract "The purpose of this study is to identify the function of the federal government in regard to the various facets of the entertainment industry, including, but not limited to, the film, video games, and pornography industries. Does the United States government have the constitutional authority to regulate all forms of entertainment? If not, is it the Church’s duty to regulate the entertainment industry? How might this occur? In order to answer these questions, extensive research of secondary sources was conducted that explained of the government’s limitations via the First Amendment, as well as the entertainment industry’s effects on human beings. This thesis affirms that the government has no authority to regulate the entertainment industry, and therefore, must provide the means to allow for its effective self-regulation. The research presented provides valuable insight as to the entertainment industry’s possible adverse influence on violence, rape, and divorce, and the government’s function in the private sector regarding entertainment. THE ROLE OF THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT 4 The Role of the Federal Government Regarding Regulation in the Entertainment Industry In the past century, the entertainment industry has evolved from going to the theatre or reading a book to, presently, watching a movie on your home television, playing a video game with your friends, perusing the Internet, or even enjoying social media. As this “explosion” of entertainment has occurred, so too has regulation by the United States government. The federal government originally began to regulate the radio industry through the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) to stop monopolies from forming on the airwaves and to prohibit newspapers from controlling the radio stations (Chapman, 2010). While this was the first regulation placed on the entertainment industry, federal governmental policy has slowly begun to encompass all aspects of it, leading to preemptive self-regulation by these industries. In the current political atmosphere, there is an increased level of distress associated with the film and video game industry in regard to an increase of violence correlated with extended exposure to these entertainment elements. Pornography is assumed to increase sexual violence among Americans and throughout the world’s populations. Regulations continue to be proposed to curb the negative influences of the entertainment industry. Before any regulation is passed, there must be clear evidence of an adverse change in behavior associated with these aspects of the entertainment industry. This thesis tracks the role of governmental and self-regulation as relating to the various facets of the entertainment industry. Additionally, it will focus upon the biblicalhistorical aspect of regulation as promoted through the Bible and espoused by the Founding Fathers of the United States through the U.S. Constitution. Links will be drawn THE ROLE OF THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT 5 between these periods, along with evidence of an adverse influence, if any, that the video game, film, and pornography industries have on human behavior. This paper will then conclude with recommendation to protect the American population from any harm incurred from substantial or limited use of these entertainment mediums, or their regulation by the federal government." @default.
