"Suck it Jesus!"

So after the Sally Fields clip that we watched in class, I decided to watch it again on YouTube so that I could post on it. What I found was not only the uncensored clip of her speech, but also a clip of Kathy Griffin who was also was censored at the Emmys. The clip was Kathy Griffin talking about the censorship of the Emmys on the Larry King Live show and I found it pretty interesting. Kathy Griffin's acceptance speech was censored because she said "suck it jesus" when making a joke about people thanking god when they accept an award. Personally, I thought it was funny because she's right, so many actors/singers etc. thank god for their award and you have to wonder...did god really want to be associated with that sex and language filled film they made? Or that rap song that degrades women and talks about drugs and killing? As much as Larry King is not my taste in talk shows, he did have good points in his interview and he brought up Sally Fields speech to compare to Kathy Griffin's. One particularly good point was the quote "when you censor you build up what you censored" and I think he's completely right because now it's all over the place and everyone is wondering what the hell Sally Fields and Kathy Griffin said that's creating all this hype. Another point is if shows like Larry King Live and CNN's "Showbiz Tonight" are showing it uncensored, then what was the point in censoring it in the first place? People are now seeing it, so what good did that do?
