Best Buy decided to add Common Sense Media reviews of TV shows and movies to the DVD section of BestBuy.com beginning this week. Best Buy already features Common Sense reviews of video games on the site. The DVD reviews will include information on violence, sex and profanity. Common Sense, the nonprofit group that advocates for parental oversight of children's media consumption, has also been pushing for a government- and industry-funded, broad-based media-education initiative.
