Private Ryan, The FCC and ABC
 

This country is heading in one fucked up direction. This article really PISSES ME FUCKING OFF.

" ABC affiliates in at least eight states will not televise the network's broadcast of the World War II film "Saving Private Ryan" because they fear repercussions from U.S. regulators. "

Fucking idiots.

CENSORSHIP by INTIMIDATION.

it's a film it should be considered art ...it shouldn't be altered in any way...

goerge Orwell was not far off only 20 years or so

We need a new FCC and someone ought to EDUCATE the fuckin cavemen in those states, who complain to the FCC about films like this, but who SEND THEIR OWN KIDS OFF TO BUSHES WAR.

As long as it is on late at night. That shit is pretty graphic.. Like EXTRA graphic... lol

Personally I have an easier time explaining death to my 7 year old than I do when two man or two women kiss. So I say, fuck it, let it air.

its a Stephen Speilberg MOVIE.

They show REAL VIOLENCE from Iraq and elsewhere everyday on CNN etc.

This summer, in LA, the news showed a psychotic guy pumping bullets into some lawyer walking down the street. It was outside a courtroom here in LA. News cameras captured the whole thing and they aired it at dinner time. They also showed the victim lying there all bloody.

Come on.

a lot of people are mad about this.
