ABC to Air 'Ryan' Uncut, Uncensored

NEW YORK (AP) - ABC's broadcast television premiere of ``Saving Private Ryan'' on Sunday will include an uncut, uncensored version of the film's horrific opening D-Day scene.

The network said it would air strict viewer advisories before the movie, which is scheduled for 8 p.m. EST. The brutal opening scene depicts soldiers being attacked as they land on the beach at Normandy.

``We realize we are asking our audience, especially parents, to make a viewing decision that requires a great deal of thought and debate,'' said Stu Bloomberg, ABC entertainment co-chairman.

``With this film, (director Steven) Spielberg was committed to showing the true horrors of war alongside its moments of victory and heroism,'' he said. ``With this telecast, we are committed to that same goal.''

Apparently Stu Bloomberg and his fellow drugged out ex-hippie, anti-Christian, anti-family values scum have been waiting for this for a long time.

They hate Christian values and morality with a Taliban like intensity.

They wait until the nation is distracted by war to put language that I cannot even type in this forum on the Public airwaves at 8:00 on Sunday night.

To add insult to injury, they inflict that subversive moron Jennings on people without access to cable.

They will reap what they sow.
