ABC censored Laverne Cox’s Emmy speech; here’s the full version
Reading now: 222
From where we’re sitting, it appears a censor at ABC got a little trigger-happy during the 72nd Primetime Emmy Awards show Sunday night.
That’s the only explanation that makes any sense as to why audio to Laverne Cox‘s speech momentarily cut out during the network’s broadcast of the ceremony.Cox appeared to present the award for Writing in a Drama Series, and dropped an “eff-bomb” that was apparently too much for network television.
Huh…Here’s how it went on ABC:“Good evening everyone. I am living proof of the American dream that anyone in this country can lose the Emmy four years in the same category and yet somehow end up on this stage presenting an award to someone who probably didn’t … What happens to an American dream deferred?

China is censoring all the gayness out of ‘Friends’ because of course
Beloved ’90s sitcom “Friends” is a major hit in China, but fans who were able to watch the series free of censorship a decade ago are now seeing their favorite TV show impacted by guidelines China’s top media regulator announced back in 2016.“Friends” was once again picked up by the country’s major streaming platforms following last year’s popular reunion show, and while only the first season is currently available, Chinese superfans were quick to note a lesbian plotline had gone mysteriously missing.In the show, Ross’s ex-wife Carol divorces him after realizing she’s a lesbian. Chinese censors cut a conversation where Ross reveals Carol is leaving him for her friend Susan, prompting Joey to ask if he ever suspected she might be a lesbian.In another scene, Ross tells the news to his parents, along with the fact the women will be raising he and Carol’s baby together.
