Read this news story about Pearl Jam being allegedly censored by At&T during a webcast of their recent Lollapalooza show. It doesn't matter if you are a Democrat or Republican or whether you agree/disagree with Eddy Vedder's comments.

The censoring allegedly was not for swears, but for these sentences:
"George Bush, leave this world alone" and "George Bush find yourself another home," sung to Pink Floyd's "Another Brick in the Wall".
