Mary Whitehouse

Mary Whitehouse (June 13, 1910 – November 23, 2001) was a British campaigner for traditional morals and decency, particularly in television and radio. She was founder and first president of the National Viewers' and Listeners' Association.

Base of support

In spite of this, Mary Whitehouse still had a deep base of support; for much of the 1960s and 1970s she had more than 250 speaking engagements every year and in 1980 she was honoured with a CBE.
