Anybody gonna watch Frontline tonite??
It's gonna have some footage of troops in Iraq and has some bad language, that some stations are going to censor.

6. Pretty sad when stations feel they have to censor
real life or death situations. These soldiers are literally putting their lives on the line and should be expected to use some "bad" language. How about the FCC people going into a combat zone and saying nothing but shucks, darn, and golly? We need a dose of reality in this country. I am not saying that I condone foul language, but c'mon, if you're life is at risk and you see friends die, what else would one expect?
