Unfortunately, a bleep sounds like a bleep, and nowadays, a bleep sound has acquired the impact of a profanity or obscenity, so that when viewers heard the bleep sound, it sounded to them as though the network was making the judgment that the name "Jesus" is offensive.
A bleeping tempest in a teapot. Don't forget that Falwell needs to keep his name in the news, and needs something to write about in his fundraising letters.
Hey, you're posting on Free Republic?!?!?!?!?!. Certainly ABC can defend itself without your assistance.
I'm sorry, but I have to disagree. How many times a day do you or others say "Thank God for......(fill in the blank)?" How do you know that Behar meant it to be "in vain?" She's obviously extremely grateful to have succeeded in her diet, and if thanking Jesus is what she feels, then you can't judge her intentions. I do, however, agree with you totally about the images that a bleep gives us (see above.)
