WHile they're at it, they have to be consistent -- what about gangsta rap ?

Are guys like Eminem going to be banned in Canada as well?

MTV has played (or use to play) edited versions of this video many years ago with the “faggot” reference removed.

Down the Orwell’s Memory Hole:

I want my MTV
(X 16)
Now look at them yo-yo’s that’s the way you do it
You play the guitar on the MTV
That ain’t workin’ that’s the way you do it
Money for nothin’ and your chicks for free
Now that ain’t workin’ that’s the way you do it
Lemme tell ya them guys ain’t dumb
Maybe get a blister on your little finger
Maybe get a blister on your thumb

We gotta install microwave ovens
Custom kitchen deliveries
We gotta move these refrigerators
We gotta move these color TV’s

(See the little faggot with the earring and the makeup
Yeah buddy that’s his own hair
That little faggot got his own jet airplane
That little faggot he’s a millionaire)

Gotta install microwave ovens
Custom kitchen deliveries
We gotta move these refrigerators
Gotta move these color TV’s

I shoulda learned to play the guitar
I shoulda learned to play them drums
Look at that mama, she got it stickin’ in the camera
Man we could have some
And he’s up there, what’s that? Hawaiian noises?
Bangin’ on the bongos like a chimpanzee
That ain’t workin’ that’s the way you do it
Get your money for nothin’ get your chicks for free

We gotta install microwave ovens
Custom kitchens deliveries
We gotta move these refrigerators
We gotta move these color TV’s

Look a’ here
That ain’t workin’ that’s the way you do it
You play the guitar on your MTV
That ain’t workin’ that’s the way you do it
Money for nothin’ and your chicks for free
Money for nothin’ and chicks for free

Money for nothin’ and your chicks for free

Look at that, look at that

Money for nothin’ and your chicks for free
I want my, I want my, I want my MTV
Money for nothin’ and chicks for free

(Fade)
I want my, I want my, I want my MTV

It reminds me of when the Stones were on Ed Sullivan and they made them cut the line “I can’t get no girlie action...” from the song.

They do this all the time.

The movie “The Dam Busters”, which is one of the great war movies ever made, is very rarely ever shown.

The reason is that the protagonist Wing Commander Guy Gibson is accurately portrayed as having a dog named “Nigger”.

They can’t cut the scenes out without messing up the movie, so they just don’t show it.

Speaking of rap ...

Standing on the front stoop, hangin' out the window
Watching all the cars go by, roaring as the breezes blow
Crazy lady livin' in a bag
Eating out of garbage pails, used to be a fag-hag

"The Message - Grandmaster Flash and the Furious Five"

This lyric is from a composition considered to be one of the cornerstones of modern rap.

26 years after its release

They just sober up from a Labatt's binge or something?

Turns out the line with the word faggot in it appears in the iTunes sample of the song. Love it. I bought it ($1.29) just to show my support. In your face PC idiots.

"The decision came after a listener complained ..."

It takes only 1 complaint from a leftist to get speech banned.

The FCC should require us to use a browser that automatically replaces offensive words with words that unite us.

It could replace angry white hate speech with Obama quotes.

For example, “unalienable rights” could be replaced with “get in their faces.”

I heard Money for Nothing on the radio a few months ago. The reference to “faggots” was edited out. I don’t remember what they replaced it with. I think it was a station in Milwaukee.

'The societal values at issue a quarter century later have shifted and the broadcast of the song in 2010 must reflect those values, rather than those of 1985.'

Yeah. Censorship versus Freedom.

I'm guessing that possession of a Blazing Saddles DVD carries the death penalty in Canuckistan these days.
