I wonder where Fox gets this information

[LonelyWreckage]

Haha no mention of "LOL" - just all the sexually deviant ones for it's paranoid viewers.

[hum-an-ole]

Haha, do kids these days really go to such lengths?? Most of those seem absolutely ludicrous to me, but what do I know.

Vaguely related to this, why can they say "cock" on the BBC, but not "wanker"?

[LonelyWreckage]

What makes you think that like ? As far as I'm aware they're both allowed post-watershed, and neither allowed before.

 

 

3:01 for example.

[sodamntired]

I have my doubts about Banana, referrring to a male member.

I'm just going by what I noticed on an episode of Top Gear the other day.

See, I'm not sure there's much consistency with our censorship. I think it's just left down to the editor's discretion, so the amount of bleeping is dependent on the programme. That link I posted is a prime example - bleepings of "fucking", yet you can see Jonathan Woss say that on his popular chat show occasionally - without it being bleeped. But as a rule if it's 9PM or later they're allowed to get away with pretty much unrestricted language. Charlie Brooker's bleeping is apparently done voluntarily according to one of his 'tweets'.

in canada, we don't have specific laws to deal with censorship issues, instead we have various control boards made by various mother television groups to ensure they aren't offending viewers away. what you get of course is different groups with different target audiences and different motives.. in otherwords, inconsistency. but whatever, you know what you're in for if you're watching the comedy network at 1am vs. the morning news.

[LonelyWreckage]

To be honest I've never really thought about it until now. It's inspired me to do a Google where I stumbled across this - a poll regarding each swear word's severity. Notice cock isn't even mentioned, although the BBC list cocksucker as "extremely offensive" :

 

As if "********" was #11 in 1998, when "bollocks" was #6 ?!? Mental.
