I noticed one piece of blatant censoring on the part of Cartoon
Network, and I'm wondering if anyone can explain it.
In the takeoff cartoon of the 3 little pigs, there is a scene showing
the 3rd pig's front door. To our left of the door there was a sign
that said "No Dogs Allowed" and you could see that the word "Dogs" was
crossed out by one of the pigs, and something was written above that
word as a gag in the cartoon. However, in the version they showed
last night, there was fuzzy tan color obscuring whatever the gag word
was. Does anyone know what that originally said? It must have been
really bad, because they spoke the words "jap" and "kraut" without
censoring.
Thanks!
Give In to the New World Odor!
