Money for Nothing by Dire Straits now banned in Canada, from ONE complaint

The song with the line "The little faggot" is now barred from being played on Canadian airwaves by the Canadian Standards Council, stemming from one complaint that it is "degrading to gays". A new edited version will be allowed.

I just heard the story during the news break on local radio.

Thoughts?


The song is approximately 25 years old.


Censorship rears it's ugly head in Canada, and the air of political correctness that's been growing in N America over the past 20 odd years gets ever stronger.
