So which word was FOX protecting us from, "Goddamn" or "War"?

Accepting her Emmy on Sunday night for lead actress in a drama series ("Brothers and Sisters"), Field stumbled halfway through, lost her train of thought, screeched at the audience to stop applauding so she could finish talking -- and then was bleeped by Fox censors as she stammered through an anti-war rant.

"And, let's face it, if the mothers ruled the war, there would be no (expletive) wars in the first place," Field said, but Fox cut away for much of her comment.

What was bleeped was the phrase "goddamn wars". The above partial quote is inaccurate, as the sound went off and the camera angle was changed after she said "there would be no go..", so no one in the American television audience would have known what she was saying if not for the print media.

Personally I don't think that any of it deserved to be bleeped. Her opinion about war is the one that is shared by the majority of Americans, and as for the "goddamn", well I have heard ministers say that.
