The world heard JD Vance being booed at the Olympics. Except for viewers in the US | Bryan Armen Graham

The real risk for American broadcasters is not that dissent will be visible. It is that audiences will start assuming anything they do not show is being hidden

This is so cool. NBC censored out the booing for American viewers, while BBC and CBC didnt.

At least it shows that different channels have different views on what they should censor.

    Time was we used to mock things like State Television that places with outright authoritarian governments or sham democracies had.

    Now it’s just so blatant here. And honestly, the tilt to corporatism was not even all that subtle before. It’s just that now in addition to that, the media has to mindful of Donvict’s administration’s fee-fees, too. Just like delicate flowers in shithole countries.
