[Up2Late]

Bad language warning!

1. I just finished it----very emotional! Brave young men.

[Up2Late]

3. How'd you do that?

Satellite?

Was your Bleeped?

[candy]

12. LOL ! As soon as I posted the message and turned off my computer

I realized it wasn't over-----My Boston Globe TV guide showed it as a 1 hour show and when the helicopter flew off with the young man's body I thought that was the ending.

[Ilsa]

2. I've picking it up on cable out of Houston.

Two sets of warnings at the beginning of the show. The first was the typical warning. The second said something about extremely graphic video and language or words to that effect.

4. Their are Solders cussing when under fire, imagine that?

All Things Considered, February 18, 2005 ·

PBS will feed stations an expletive-deleted version of next Tuesday's show Frontline. The documentary A Company of Soldiers contains "raw" language used by troops in Iraq. PBS says it can't ensure that stations won't face FCC fines if the show airs unedited. Frontline executive producers say none of the expletives violate indecency rules. :smoke:

5. Yeah, I heard that last Friday.

I've already heard "shit". Oh dear. They are saying the next day it gets a great deal worse. 2 Critically wounded.

6. Both of my Channels of PBS are Bleeped

Atlanta, Georgia. Go figure:grr:

[Ilsa]

7. I heard what I though was "fuck" with a really rapid,

excited stream of orders after their Hummer almost runs over an IED. I haven't heard any "bleeps". This is the whole deal. Pretty intense.

13. What did you expect? We live in the bible belt.

The fundies don't want us to be subjected to bad language.

[Up2Late]

8. Man, that cameraman is pretty Jumpy

It's amazing how accurate the Rockets and Bombs are

[imaginary girl]

9. Don't forget the animal cruelty warning!

I just caught part of it when I walked downstairs ... but it happened to be the terribly sad part when the dog gets shot.

[Up2Late]

10. Someone just lost their cool

What was the deal about the guy who shot the dog being a Doctor?

Maybe he thought it looked Rabid? That's what one of them said.:evilfrown:

11. menaced

apparantly the dog menaced one of the soldiers. the dog looked to be in pretty bad shape, like what you would see in a shelter in the US
