Tim Minchin Woody Allen Jesus

Please #FreeWoodyAllenJesus from your thought prison Mr Fincham.
"This song was meant to air on the Jonathan Ross Show tomorrow night (23rd December 2011), but at the last minute ITV cut it. Here's my whiney blog about it " ~ Tim Minchin.
From his post I'm not on the Jonathon Ross Show. (Well worth a read.)

Why the censorship Mr Fincham?
Is it not also midwinter for those of us who know differently?
Do we not need a cheer in the midst of the dark?
Are we not humans and UK citizens living through the worst financial crisis for decades?
Why are we not worthy of some hope, a smile?
Why would anyone choose to discriminate against us in such tough times?

The decision to pull the song is a clear sign that there currently exists here, in what is hailed as a fair and free secular democracy, the sort of repression one would expect in a totalitarian, fascist system or theocracy!The song was pulled because Fincham sensed that a powerful someone, or the bedazzled throng of a subset of the population or advertisers, would be offended.

If one is fearful of the bullying of a large and powerful group or individual for simply expressing an opinion, may one not infer one is being subjugated, repressed and operating under the bullying group's oppression?

Is a gesture of appeasement EVER offered to a 'lesser' power?



How is this not a free speech issue?

Court of Human Rights anyone?
