I HATE CENSORSHIP

[maddog]

F*ck C*ck Sh*t

G*dd*mm*t!

EWB IS CENSORING NOW!!

Seriously though: Censorship sucks ass... One of my favorite radio stations, before the boob, was 94.1 WHJY in Providence, RI. Now.. they have to play "radio edits" of everything.... Fucking FCC won't let us be...

On the cable pin thing: Not all cable providers provide a pin for cable but most new TVs now have something called V-Chip in which it asks for a code I believe to watch certain ratings on certain programs. There's no such thing as live TV anymore.. Fuck you FCC, Fuck You America, Fuck You George W. Bush, Fuck You Middle America.

Sorry.. had to get the fucks off my back..

Yeah, the local ABC station here pussied up and didn't air it either. They said `for legal reasons'. Instead, we got a re-run of Oprah, followed by some tv movie that they had already shown several months ago.

I just though I'd add my thoughts about radio.

The watershed never ends (Or begins ?) on radio, as it is cendsored 24 hours a day. I don't know why, but thats how it is (In the UK)

One of the main reasons I no longer listen to radio is because of all these "radio edits". An example of this is "My Name Is" (Eminem). He had to write a whole new set of lyrics for it. I have NEVER heard the uncensored version on the radio, or on the TV music stations. It just ruins it, as you know it is a watered down version of something so much better. Less original artists simply putting stupid sound effects over their swearing is even worse. It makes them seem such amateurs.

For songs without radio edits, but still censorship issues, it annoys me when they play them before the watershed and you only hear about a third of it, as they cut the sound for the rest of it. What is the point of playing it?
