Submission + - MPAA's Jack Valenti Dead at 85
Alexander Burke writes: "Many news organizations are reporting the death of Jack Valenti at age 85 due to complications from a stroke. One of his most famous quotes, and indeed part of his legacy, is "the VCR is to the American film producer and the American public as the Boston strangler is to the woman home alone". He also is credited with the creation of the letter-based film rating system (PG, R, etc)."
