    I've seen twats written uncensored on the BBC before at the beginning of a Fawlty Towers episode, but I never thought I'd see the day when they published a news article containing the word fuck uncensored in print. Let alone the phrase "Now fuck off and cover something important you twats!" : http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/uk_politics/4247237.stm[^] I guess you can't censor the news. :rolleyes:

      I would love to see Moira Stuart read it out on the breakfast news in that unmistakable monotone voice of hers. :cool: " And, Mr., Campbell, is, reported, as, saying, Now, fuck, off, and, cover, something, important, you, twats. More, on, this, after, the, weather. "

            Reading bbc.co.uk the day before the Superbowl I read an article about last year's "wardrobe malfunction" was displayed in full without any blurring. I found that suprising but its good that there's one website out there that's not censored. "One of the Georges," said Psmith, "I forget which, once said that a certain number of hours' sleep a day--I cannot recall for the moment how many--made a man something, which for the time being has slipped my memory."

              That's not surprising - it was hardly hard core pornography now was it. Well, not to most people anyway, only the vocal ones with the biggest sticks to shake. :(

                From the ruckus it created you would imagine that they both had sex on stage or something :) I think most people simply did not give a damn about the whole incident but the ones that were offended would not shut up and that's why we're still talking about it one year on.

                      I thought it was a non-issue too. Hell I watched that program and I didn't even notice the damn thing. Who pays that much attention such a lame-ass song in the halftime show ?

                                I wouldn't want my kids seeing that, and I'm willing to bet there are a lot more people like me. What I find ironic is these TV stations allow skimpier and skimpier clothing daily and yet when a skimpy garment flops it's all of the sudden horrible. Or seeing 95% of a boob or a chick in lingerie is ok, but the nipple is just wrong. Well, if they would've made her ass put some real clothes on to begin with they could've prevented the thing all together. If people want to look at naked people, then at least keep it on the channels that can be easily blocked. That way everyone is happy and not just one side of the fence. And then, parents can let their kids look at all the tits they want. [edit] And yeah, it is scary that I'm starting to think like a parent now. [/edit] Jeremy Falcon

But I just think too much was made of it...as you say there is skimpy clothing and questionable material on many tv shows (especially some of the stupider reality ones) and people ignore that and one thing like this happens and everyone who's someone tries to get in the news by loudly condemning it. I thought that laughable. Simply fine that woman (who was obviously responsible) and move on.

But I just think too much was made of it...as you say there is skimpy clothing and questionable material on many tv shows (especially some of the stupider reality ones) and people ignore that and one thing like this happens and everyone who's someone tries to get in the news by loudly condemning it. I thought that laughable. Simply fine that woman (who was obviously responsible) and move on. "One of the Georges," said Psmith, "I forget which, once said that a certain number of hours' sleep a day--I cannot recall for the moment how many--made a man something, which for the time being has slipped my memory."

Well, I do think if the network didn't allow the skimpy clothing in the first place, it wouldn't have happened. I figure they should both be fined. Jeremy Falcon

                                        I wouldn't want my kids seeing that, and I'm willing to bet there are a lot more people like me. What I find ironic is these TV stations allow skimpier and skimpier clothing daily and yet when a skimpy garment flops it's all of the sudden horrible. Or seeing 95% of a boob or a chick in lingerie is ok, but the nipple is just wrong. Well, if they would've made her ass put some real clothes on to begin with they could've prevented the thing all together. If people want to look at naked people, then at least keep it on the channels that can be easily blocked. That way everyone is happy and not just one side of the fence. And then, parents can let their kids look at all the tits they want. [edit] And yeah, it is scary that I'm starting to think like a parent now. [/edit] Jeremy Falcon

Apparently it was the most requested replay item on TiVo by a huge margin. i.e. People voted with their remotes; they liked it, wanted it and replayed it to death. "Oh how scandalous that was Mary Jane, we can't have that filth T.V. Now let's see it again..." But yeah, better that shows that may contain objectional content come with a warning. regards, Paul Watson South Africa The Code Project Pope Pius II said "The only prescription is more cowbell. "
