The Raw Story | Fox censors Sally Field in US telecast of Emmys: "Fox US producers of Sunday's Emmy telecast censored best drama actress winner Sally Field Sunday evening after she veered off into a remark criticizing the US invasion of Iraq. 'If mothers ruled the world, there wouldn't be any god -' she said when the sound went dead and the camera suddenly turned away from the stage so viewers would be distracted. Chopped off were the words 'god-damned wars in the first place.' According to the LA Times, the phrase was not censored in the Canadian telecast.) Technically, the use of 'goddamn' is not profane, according to a 2003 FCC ruling regarding Bono's use of 'goddamn' at the 2003 Golden Globes."
Good old Fox is at it again. How dare someone speak against the administration!!!

Give me a break. It's a lame awards show. If she wants to criticize the "administration" she should do it on her own dime.
If you were somewhere having a good time and another person starts making negative comments and ruining your good mood, wouldn't you want to ignore them?
Remove "politics" from the context and think about it as a person. It's not that they might not have anything valid to say, it's just that there is a place and time for certain things. If anything she tried to be rude and pull something over on the broadcaster who apparently caught her in the act. Don't be blind, things might not always about politics regardless of how much someone says it is....
