Random censorship makes me want to spit. Apparently, deaf people need to be protected from Bewitched. A more complete collection of links on the subject is in this entry from [livejournal.com profile] officialgaiman.

Edit: it's been kindly pointed out that this is not censorship, just capricious use of government funding. Good point. Still stupid.

Also, yes, I support gay marriage. I support a lot of things. I don't feel a particular need to copy the html bumper sticker, though. (No slam on those who do. I just don't.) Another edit: I will put up this bumper sticker:

   
Neopolitan Ice-Cream Is, Like, Cool.

And finally, I stayed up too late every night this weekend. Foolish, foolish, crabby me. I read a lot of brain-breaking Spike/Xander. Don't ask me why. I was in a mood.

The networks can fund it if they feel like spending the money to keep deaf viewers... who can still SEE the advertisements...

It's a rediculous and lame reason, and anything that obviously religious should be sending off warning bells across our whole separated from the church government. But despite all that, only corporate greed is going to keep the deaf from watching those shows.
