I found a person who is willing to be interviewed for my paper- Professor Stephen Vaughn from UW-Madison, a communications professor who has done extensive research on film ratings.
However, I'm still stuck with some elements of my paper; I wrote some history components, but that's not really the point. I'm supposed to answer my why question, and I think I need a better thesis to keep moving forward. Here's a couple ideas;
MPAA ratings protect the film industry from government censorship and help parents shield their children from immoral content.
MPAA film ratings classify films by what is morally appropriate and what is not, and are instated in order to teach americans appropriate moral behavior.
My introduction is in an inadequate draft form, and needs revision, and most of my current history components will probably not be used. However, I'm very excited about the interview, and am hoping that will help point me in the right direction.
I know this is a short post, and i'll say more at another time. Thanks for reading!

What will you discuss with the person that you're interviewing? Your topic seems very interesting and applicable. How do you think the interview will help your paper? If you need to rewrite your "why" question, then maybe the person you're interviewing could possibly help you...
