On The Golden Age Of Hipper-Than-Thou CD Fetishization Begins Now
Seriously? CDs? If you're not operating in LPs and the 24bit/96kHz lossless digital versions, you're just not holy enough.

On Sweden's Got Problems, Too--Hateful Problems
Look, if the private television station doesn't want to take their money and chooses not to carry the ad, that's their right. The government isn't pressuring them to censor the ad. They own that station. Free speech doesn't mean anyone's medium is forced to carry the speech against their will. If we're talking about government going too far...forcing a private television station to carry an objectionable commercial is closer to an example.
This is not the 1950s...there are more than three television stations in Sweeden, no?
And besides, any casual observer of politics knows this not only isn't effective censorship, but is going to get the commercial plenty of free views on the internet and news programs.
This is not Iran shutting down twitter or China limiting google hits.
