A method and apparatus provide dynamic content rating for digital transmissions of media programs. Rather than one rating or a set of ratings be associated with an entire program or broadcast channel, content rating data relates to specific segments of a program. A user of a media receiving device presets rating criteria relating to a level or type of content to be blocked. The preset criteria are then used to selectively block presentation of those segments of content of a media program that fall outside the acceptable rating criteria. A timed length or display area segment of audio, video, text, graphics, or data may be dynamically blocked based on a comparison of the content rating associated with the segment and the user's preset rating criteria.
