Jeez, our local RW rag censors Doonesbury

[AnnInLa]

Our local newspaper, The Advertiser (www.theadvertiser.com), located in Lafayette, LA has censored today's Doonesbury. The popular strip can be found at www.ucomics.com/doonesbury. We have a letter writing project going on to protest the censorship. God, it's always something with these mouth-breathers.

3. Actually, Doonesbury was going to use "fuck" in one of his strips

I can see why some people would have a problem with it.

5. The online version doesn't use "fuck", it uses "f---".

Is that really what everyone was up in arms about?!

7. I saw a story that said he was going to use the whole word

in the print edition

6. So, they don't want to see Dick Cheney quoted, huh?

Yesterday ...


Today ...


If it's good enough for Cheney to say to a U.S. Senator, why wouldn't a right-wing rag be proud? :puke:

8. exactly!!!

9. The Buffalo News...

....did this bit: "#$%^&*!$%"

On the other hand, The Buffalo News did endorse Kerry/Edwards, so I'm not going to get all bent out of shape over it. Annoyed, yes, but not enraged or anything.
