Delta Air Lines will show unedited versions of “Booksmart” and “Rocketman” in its in-flight film offerings after critics called out the airline for censoring sexuality, including same-sex love, in previously deleted scenes.

The company said in a statement Thursday that it did not ask for any “homosexual content” to be removed from the films.

“We value our in-flight entertainment options as a means to reflect the diversity of the world,” the company said. “We are reviewing the processes of our third-party editing vendors to ensure that they are aligned with our values of diversity and inclusion.”

The issue of censorship emerged after “Booksmart” director Olivia Wilde called out deleted scenes showing …

Delta and other private companies have the right to censor content.

Are these movies shown on individual screens in each seat, or are they on a drop-down screen that everybody has to watch?

When the Iranians call US the Great Satan, I’ve been told they’re referring to the porn that the US spreads worldwide. Anybody know if that’s the case?

I have not seen a large drop down screen on a plane in the last 25 years.

Although not a bad reason, I’m not so sure it is true. They call Israel the Little Satan. Who knows what they think?

My understanding is that Iran and other Islamic countries call us the Great Satan is our support of Israel. They call Israel the Little Satan.

Me either, but I don’t fly that much

So apparently we’re talking about little screens on the back of seats. It still exposes the seat mates - no matter how young - to the onscreen depravity. What a wonderful world.

I lived in Saudi Arabia for a while in the nineties.
When the Muslims call the United States the great Satan they are not referring to just pornography or booze, or wars.

Their imams expound long and hard about all the divisions of western culture. Movies. Sports. Gourmet cooking. Playing music. Dancing. Ice skating. Driving in the country, swimming in a lake or pool. Fishing.

On and on and on.

Islam teaches a harsh life of self denial, spending time in prayer, in meditation, and in memorizing the Koran and the Hadith.

So.their hate extends to every pleasant pastime which offers diversion and entertainment. And the reason is that it dilutes the time spent deepening commitment to Allah. Any and every diversion competes with Islam.

Go spend some time over there and pay attention to what goes on around.

If you return alive you will have a deeper understanding of what drives their hatred.

“Rocketman” oozed gayness. There probably wasn’t a single heterosexual involved in its creation or filming.
