Standards and Practices

I'm watching a History Channel documentary on the KKK. Well, how else is one to spend a Saturday morning? Anyway, during a racist diatribe from one of the klan's spiritual leaders, the History Channel saw fit to censor the word "ass," as in "get off your ass," but left intact "figger" and "naggot," as in "we hate figgers and naggots." Those are actually code words I came up with, because I can't resist censoring hate groups. It's my fetish. A fetish not shared by the S&P guys at the History Channel, apparently, who decided that those words were not as offensive as "ass." Ass? Really? Also left unscrubbed and unobscured in the broadcast? Lots and lots of mullets. Horrifying.

I think the History Channel has their priorities out of whack. Oh, and the klan could probably stand a little reflection and self-examination.

What else is pissing me off? Battlestar Galactica didn't record last night and the full episode isn't up on Hulu.com yet. Grumble.

What isn't pissing me off? Dollhouse keeps getting better. Watch it, so I can have someone to discuss it with.
