Rated A for Adult is a television program that features adult videos, toys and porn actors.

Sadly, this show airs at 11 PM on the G4TV channel which is watched by tens of thousands of teenagers and children who tune in for video game programs.  G4TV means Games for television.

The following email exchange took place between Florida Family Association and the West Virginia Division of Tourism after FFA launched the email alert regarding advertisements on the show Rated A for Adult:

Dear Mrs. Carver,

Thank you for your reply.

May I assume that your response means that WV will continue to advertise during Rated A for Adult?

Florida Family Association places a priority on monitoring shows which target our children with explicitly immoral content.  Rated A for Adult is one of those shows.  In most cases including this one, Florida Family Association is the only pro-family organization that contacts advertisers.
