"We must warn you of the graphic contents of the following segment" is used to describe some gory or adult images to follow on tv programs. This equates 'graphic' with 'adult' or 'porn'. This is killing the language.
I guess graphic artists are porn artist now. Is the English language so poor that they need to steal words meant to represent something totally different, to make references to obscene or potential upsetting images?
How about ""We must warn you of the potentially offending contents of the following segment", instead?
