ABC affiliates in 8 states are pulling the movie "Saving Private Ryan" from broadcast tonight amid fears of fines from the FCC over foul language and excess violence.

The FCC obviously has too much power if you can't show Saving Private Ryan on Remembrance Day.

I'll remembered to watch my language out of fear of the FCC last time I had to watch one of my buddies die face down in the sand.

I remember seeing Schindler's list (Brought to you by REALLY LONG INTERMISSIONS from Ford) on network TV, uncensored.
