Knee-jerk Liberals around the world are all afluttered and falling over themselves to call FOX’s censoring of Sally Fields’ acceptance speech at Sunday’s Emmy Awards as part of a Vast Global Right Wing Conspiracy by the Evil Fox Network. Fear not, kids, the studio didn’t censor Fields because she mouthed off about the Iraq War (in fact, you can hear ALL her war comments in the “live” telecast), but in fact they censored her when she used the word “Goddamn”, which is a big no-no on American TV for some unGodly reason. (It’s stupid, I know, but it explains the censoring.) Here is what Fox censored and a version of the broadcast not censored. Judge for yourself.
