Comcast weirdness. was this censorship?
Advertisements [?]
was watching Comedy Central right now, i believe David(?) Byrne's Stand Up special. and as we just came back from a regular sized commercial break, Bryrne starts up again and quickly sets up into talking about his brother who just came back from Iraq. and then it cuts into commercial in mid-sentence, shows 1-2 commercials (not a normal sized break) and then comes back right at the very end of that brother-from-Iraq set. rather surreal and uncomfortable especially since this week my class was doing 1984 & Animal Farm.

so, i'm curious. anyone else from SF Bay Area who was watching the same show catch that or am i hallucinating? any other opinions whether this is censorship?
