About the airing of an interview with an Afghan leader...banned?? what??? I don't know if that was one of the interviews I've seen, but I have seen a couple. Right after the attacks there were shows all over the place showing recent interviews too. That wouldn't happen. People want to be informed and to know what's going on. There is nothing wrong with showing an interview. The fact is almost anything can be shown on TV, and often is. (Cable, not neccessarily network TV, but who doesn't have cable or dish now?) Nobody is protecting our "fragile" American psyche, don't worry. The comedians have started to run with this already, like I said...irony and satire...very popular.
I think you have been listening to the mis-informed :). Don't worry, no one is messing with our freedom of speech, yet! Can you imagine journalists allowing any of that??? No way, it would be a huge story!
