The TV Gods Are Listening

Yesterday I said I hoped that someone would re-air the documentary "9/11" for the Sept. 11th anniversary, and it looks like CBS will be doing just that on September 10th. This will be an updated version containing recent interviews with the men featured in the movie. Get ready to set those TiVos!

Ridiculously, there's some concern that if CBS airs the version uncut, they'll be fined because of the film's profanity.

Once again I ask, WTF?

Seriously, if anything warrants a response of "HOLY SHIT!" it's seeing a huge plane crash into a skyscraper. How could anyone watch that documentary and come away from it thinking, "That would have been a lot better if those firemen didn't use the f-word so much."
