Can. Parents Television Council, Scourge of Broadcast Indecency, Files for Bankruptcy

The Parents Television and Media Council has filed for bankruptcy, ending a three-decade run as a media watchdog that fought to rid the airwaves of sex, violence and profanity.

The organization filed for liquidation under Chapter 7 on Oct. 3, listing assets of $92,000 and liabilities of $285,000. In its heyday in the early 2000s, the group brought in as much as $6.6 million in donations a year — that figure had dwindled to $1.6 million by 2023.

All that money wasted on an organization dedicated to telling people that swear words are bad for kids.

It is surprising they are going bankrupt now. They should have taken Morality in Media's example, and morphed into Coalition against Online Harm or Canadians Against Sexual Exploitation.
