When did the the Daily Show cut the Censors?
I must have missed something because they have said Bullshit several times with no bleeping.

1. "Shit" has been allowed on Comedy Central for a while now.
Didn't you see that South Park episode where they said it about 200 times?

8. Maybe they couldn't compete with Real Time with Bill Maher
without letting the bullshit fly. Then again, it was extra tame compared to Maher's show!

5. I don't think the FCC controls cable. I believe their censorship is self-imposed.
Kind of like the Hayes office. I'm not an authority on this.

9. Basic cable program and after "the family hour"--they loosen up after 10, and will even
give off the odd F word after midnight at the weekend.

10. I'm glad they did.
I'm tired of stuff on cable being censored.
