IS EDITING EXCESSIVE PROFANITY THE SAME THING AS CENSORSHIP?

[+] serious ballot by Mithrandir
ACTIVE Aug 10,2007 - Sat Aug 09, 08

In a webcast of a Pearl Jam performance at the Lollapalooza concert last week, ATT muted out several words of a remake of Pink Flloyd’s “Another Brick in the Wall”.

The words were “George Bush, leave this world alone” and “George Bush, find yourself another home.”

AT&T admits they deliberately muted part of the song – saying it was a mistake by a webcast vendor. Adding “We have policies in place with respect to editing excessive profanity, but AT&T does not censor performances.”
