Censorship Chronicles: Steven Bochco, Creator of NYPD Blue, LA Law, Hill Street Blues

Steven Bochco is the Emmy, Peabody, and Humanitas-award winning creator and producer of NYPD Blue, LA Law, Hill Street Blues, Doogie Howser, Hooperman, and many other television series.  Following the FCC's decision that an episode of NYPD Blue was indecent, Bochco discusses that show's history of trouble with censors, as well as the decision's impact on creative artists, television, culture, and democracy, in this wide-ranging interview with Jonathan Rintels, Executive Director of the Center for Creative Voices in Media.  This podcast is one of a series titled The Censorship Chronicles conducted by Creative Voices, a nonpartisan nonprofit group dedicated to preserving free expression, and independent and diverse creative voices in our nation's media.  Website:  www.creativevoices.us
