Man, I couldn't make it past the first sentence of that article. It reeks of condescension...kind of like the title to this topic. Anyway...

I was discussing this issue with a friend and I have to ask...how is this any different than the large number of songs that are censored for radio or the movies which are censored before they air on national TV? I may be wrong, but it seems that the song is banned as long as it contains the word "faggot," not banned from the airwaves in all cases. In other words, Dire Straits are not banned from Canadian radio.
