See no evil...

Sometimes we only see what we want to see. In a recent post, Instapundit claims that
there's not much support for the idea that more-available porn (or pro-sex material generally) is doing any harm to America's children.
Only a few posts earlier, though, he praises a new children's book by Buzz Aldrin because, as per the NY Times,
Thanks to video games, TV shows and movies such as ''Star Wars: Episode III -- Revenge of the Sith'' that are loaded with special effects, today's children don't have a realistic impression of space or space travel...
Thus, on the one hand, more-available porn is not adversely affecting America's children; but on the other hand, more-available sci-fi is. How about a re-write? Consider,
there's not much support for the idea that video games, TV shows and movies such as "Star Wars: Episode III --- Revenge of the Sith" are giving today's children an unrealistic impression of space or space travel...
and
Thanks to more-available porn, today's children don't have a realistic impression of sex.
Yeah, that's it.
