Fox Censors Anti-Blasphemy, Pro-Mammary At Emmys
While the scintillating debate about whether Fox's censors directed the profanity-erasing silence-rays of its Sphere of Censorship against Sally Field for either the "goddamned" or "no more...wars" portions of her rambling acceptance speech rages on, we thought it would be fun to share a clip of some the filthy, filthy things that the network's Standards & Practices allowed on the air during the Emmys telecast.
Not only did Fox permit 'Til Death star Brad Garrett to spend a full minute alternately discussing Joely Fisher's generously displayed cleavage and sharing his desire to explore the area between her knees in a carnal fashion, it also allowed Charlie Sheen's image to be broadcast into the homes of millions of morally upright TV viewers, any of whom could have initiated a potentially disastrous FCC letter-writing campaign following their forced flashback to the actor's notoriously checkered sexual past.
