Sterilized for mass enjoyment

Should everything be sterilized for mass enjoyment?

So the NBA playoffs start today. As with many sporting events, there was a musical introduction. As I listened, I was surprised by the song choice. Not surprising was that the Black Eyed Peas were doing the intro, but that the song was Let's Get Retarded. Or as it was sanitized for the ESPN / ABC / DISNEY machine "Let's Get it Started".

I know that not all content is appropriate for all ages. I guess I am just disappointed.
