This Week's Newsletter: Profanity Problem

Fraser Lewry's picture

The following 1 rule(s) were triggered: Rule 'EN Profanity': [CONTENT: Message content contains 'asshole']. Action: Quarantine email and alert sender.

You can probably get the word "asshole" onto children's TV these days without anyone immediately thinking of phoning the Daily Mail, but you can't get it past many corporate firewalls and e-mail filtering systems. This week our newsletter contains two such occurrences of the word, and so it's entirely likely that some of you won't receive it.

If you don't, it can be accessed here. And if you'd like to receive the newsletter and don't, please ensure that the e-mail details you used when registering with the site are up-to-date.

On children's TV?

I don't think so. Although I think the Wacky Races has excellent comic potential if that kind of vocabulary gets included.

asshole asshole, a soldier i will be

I also like the story

possibly apocryphal, about when the House of Commons installed a new email system with new filters and firewalls. Apparently, the Right Honorable Member for Scunthorpe wondered why he wasn't getting any mails through....
