DAILY SHOW SCHIZOPHRENIA, PART III or HOW BIG IS THEIR GIANT DICK?
External link:
At the beginning of the month, I pointed out that Comedy Central's The Daily Show arbitrarily bleeped out the word "bush" when used by Rosie Perez to refer to her own genitalia, but not the word "pussy" when used by Lawrence Fishburne to refer to female genitalia, even though "Bush" is the name of the President of the United States. A couple weeks later, I pointed out that they bleeped out the word "Dick", in the phrase "you don't have to be a dick about it", not referring specifically to genitalia, used by host Jon Stewart, dispute the fact that that is a common first name, and the name of the Vice-President.
On February 19, they did not bleep out the word "dick" spoken by Jon Stewart in the phrase "Is it my imagination, or does it seem like every ruler of every country in the world right now is a giant dick?" So, I guess, you can't say "dick", but you can say "giant dick"? I wonder if you could say, "Suck my Dick Chaney" on TV. Would they bleep out the word "Dick" and leave the word "Cheney" so everyone knew what you had just said? I leave that question as an exercise for the reader.
