This is very Weird


MTV requested that Weird Al censor the name of P2P file sharing sites Morpheus, Grokster, Limewire and Kazaa from his 2006 video. The New York Times reports, Censorship, or What Really Weirds Out Weird Al – NYTimes.com: “In an e-mail message on Sunday, Mr. Yankovic wrote that he had bleeped out the names to the file-sharing sites in his song two years ago, after MTV ‘told me that they would refuse to air my video’ otherwise. ‘Instead of subtly removing or obscuring the words in the track,’ he wrote, ‘I made the creative decision to bleep them out as obnoxiously as possible, so that there would be no mistake I was being censored.'”
