The Illinois Leader Reports Governor Rod Blagojevich surprised representatives of a conservative women’s group this week when he told them he would support an effort to filter children’s Internet access in public libraries.
Blagojevich reportedly made the comments Monday afternoon at the Eola Public Library in Aurora, immediately after he signed into law a ban on selling and renting sexually explicit video games to minors.
“We just pointed out that children could access the same images on the library’s computer screens that he was trying to protect them from seeing in video games,” Valente said outside Aurora’s Eola Public Library. “He said he didn’t know the library allowed the access to pornography on their computers. That’s when he told us he would help.”
