Hypocrisy censorship

I was reading the article from a methodically regulated newspaper recently and was outraged by one immature, juvenile and hypocrite article regarding censorship. The author profusely thanking the censorship board for the work they have done in censoring certain word from movies. Quoting that juvenile directly, he said ".... and not forgetting the F word. Oh, I can't stand such word... " and all his gibberish natter. As if he never heard of the word before? As if he never used the word at all? I seriously doubt so. The knowledge of him knowing such word exists shows that he heard of it and most importantly knows the meaning as well. So stop acting like the word is some sort of brain-eating-radioactive matter. The subsequent week, this chap happily posted another article on the same column entitled "Freedom of press and media is vital". Well, some may think that this is a case of selective censorship but what is the point censoring things which most people already know? If they are not going to learn it from the movie they will learn it elsewhere. So stop burning our ticket money and show us some real stuff!
