What is paranoid?

“The words “In God We Trust” emblazoned in giant letters behind the president of the United States just don’t sit well with the secular media. So you won’t see them.”

As a member of that media for over 40 years, and having covered Popes, priests, rabbis, a 1000 congregations and Christmas, Easter and other service, I can tell you that assigning such a reason to not seeing a certain TV shot is pure BS and complete paranoia!

Well then, how can you explain the absence of crotch shots in women's gymnastics and ice skating? I would not call it "conspiracy", but there is a definite pattern of odd camera angles and quick cutaways in a desperate attempt to avoid them, it seems, in the last few years. The camera will even pan WAY out so that you can't even see what is going on. Even non-crotch shot-centric folks have commented on it to me (like moms), so I know it is not merely my perception. it's weird.
