1. All participating blogs must adhere to the highest
blogging standards in terms of providing content that is accurate,
well-written, informative, and entertaining.
2. Content cannot contain obscene,
indecent, or profane material or links to such material. Mild profanity and
nudity are acceptable, especially in context of describing a film. A good rule
of thumb is that a participant's blog must comply with U.S. network television
standards on the occasional use of mild profanity, nudity, and gore.
3. Plagiarism
will not be tolerated. If short excerpts of copyrighted material are used, the
original source and author must be cited.
4. A substantial amount of blog content must be devoted to films or television,
5. The
purpose of a blog cannot be to expressively
sell merchandise or promote a business that sells merchandise. Blogs can be
monetized, contain advertisements, and contain links to businesses (providing
that is not the site’s sole purpose).
