NBC changes "Shut Up & Sing" to "Shut Up"
According to distributor Harvey Weinstein, NBC is refusing to air a promotional spot for the Dixie Chicks' new documentary, "Shut Up & Sing," because it is "disparaging of President Bush." The ad, which can be seen here, contains clips from the documentary that are familiar to many people. Dixie Chicks singer Natalie Maines tells a London audience that she is ashamed that Bush is from Texas, and Maines also pronounces Bush as dumb.
According to Weinstein, the CW rejected the spot, too, saying "We do not have appropriate programming in which to schedule this spot." A representative from the CW disputes this version of the story and says he was told that the Weinstein Co. was not going to make a national buy for the Dixie Chicks spot.

Google Censors More Than the Chinese
Martha Rose Crow
I was born with a radical mind. Able to see/comprehend the unseen/intangible/ invisible/enigmatic, I can translate my thoughts into ordinary language and ideas. This way, everyone sees the same models I built in my mind, even if they don't agree.
It took me five years to write an essay about something I witnessed and experienced in America. Five long years of thinking, reading, researching, writing, meditating and praying to give evil its proper name.
On July 16th, I published this essay on a blog. At this time, I signed my blog up with all the search engines. Some of the search engines said that it would take a few weeks for their crawler to go through my blog, so I waited. None of the search engines listed my blog, not even Google.
In mid-August, I re-applied to al the major search engines to list my blog again. Call it Intuition and logical thinking, I was worried that I was being censored (what I wrote about could change US elections forever), so I made a parallel (identical) blog with another blog address. This way, if one blog didn't show up on a search engine, the other one should. Ideally, both blogs would show up.
Once again, the search engines censored me, including the gargantuan goliath Google. So I waited more weeks and still no search engines listed me.
In mid-September, I tried re-listing my blogs again with all the search engines I could find, including Google. This time, Google listed me within a couple of days after applying. MSN listed my name with two spam sites that sold stock! I'm a socialist and anti-capitalism, so this attacked me. Two weeks later, the listings to my blogs completely disappeared again.
It was very apparent to me that I was being censored, so being a scientist, I decided to test it scientifically. On October 25, 2006, I re-listed my blogs one more time, but this time, I printed every action I took. If I was being censored, I was going to be able to prove it. I also printed confirmations of my submissions.
Today is October 29th. Google could find my sites on the 26th, 27th and 28th, but now they have disappeared off the radar again. When I typed in "Martha Rose Crow autogenocide," two listings came up.
One listing is for a spam site that sells business cards (it begins, "...one conclusion - that clandestine forces aligned with George Bush Sr., are planning to attack The Nine Stages of American Autogenocide Martha Rose Crow..."). Now I never wrote anything about the "clandestine forces aligned with George Bush, Sr." or anything close to it.
But if you look at the words of the listing in their entirety, it looks like a threat! The clandestine forces aligned with George Bush Sr. are planning to attack my blogs? Or are they going to attack me? Look it up on Google if you don't believe me! I've made a copy with the date on it and I will send it to anyone who wants to see just in case someone from Google finds out that I know I'm being censored and taking it to the consciousness of the world.
The second listing under "Martha Rose Crow autogenocide" is for the Dark Night Press and its about American Indians and nuclear energy. Its nothing close to me or my writing except that my last name came from my Indian ex-husband.
More, my blogs are on a Google blog site, thus they are supposedly to be instantly listed on Google the moment you publish your blog.
In an article by Adam L. Penenberg writes in "Is Google Evil?" (http://www.motherjones.com/news/feature/2006/11/google.html), "If you are a Gmail user, Google stashes copies of every email you send and receive. If you use any of its other products?Google Maps, Froogle, Google Book Search, Google Earth, Google Scholar, Talk, Images, Video, and News?it will keep track of which directions you seek, which products you shop for, which phrases you research in a book, which satellite photos and news stories you view, and on and on."
So if Google has this kind of capability, capacity, technology and employees to gather and store information on people, it certainly has the ability and advanced technology to list a site without it disappearing off the screen in four days. They're censoring me and I know it.
Yes, I know my essay will cause public outcry that has never been heard before. It will ripple strongly around the world like a sonic boom. But that's if enough people read it. Yes, I know that what I've written about is taboo, but its true. Some of the greatest scholars in the world can't break my essay. I guess my message is more powerful than I thought. It must be: I've been censored four times since July 16th.
But back to Google and the other search engines. What good is it to have a blog if none of the search engines will list you? Its the same as having "free speech" but no one hears you because you can only give your speech in a desert without listeners/readers.
Like any message that is considered "dangerous," social managers (including media managers) for the elite patriarchal system can find a way to disappear and/or lose your message or they keep it hidden or buried. Since Google only has two listings for my blogs (and neither one are about them), my message is obviously not buried or hidden in say, a few hundred or thousands of listings. My message has been disappeared again.
I'm writing this to tell you that the internet is being patrolled by censors: representatives of the status-quo who will let any violent, sexual, macho, patriarchal, corrupt, evil, destructive, racist, pro-capitalist, liberal, Christian militia, misogynist, so forth, site be listed, but they won't list any site that really threatens the status quo. Mine does. I decoded something of major importance that they don't want the world to see. I know it and the censors know it.
In the end, my essay may be dark, but the reality of being censored on the Internet is darker. Much darker. Worse, the English language search engines, which are the major search engines for the world, are controlled by American-Anglo Saxon (AASAX) capitalism and its values/visions/ideals of market value, capital gain, world dominance and promotion of the System.
Censoring by search engines indirectly controls the flow, design and culture of the Information Highway. Your "book" may be placed in an enormous library, but if there's no "catalog card" and cross-referencing "catalog cards" for it, readers will never know that your "book" exists somewhere in that vast library.
And if they're censoring me, who's next? It doesn't stop with one person or one radical mind. Who's making these decisions? Do search engines have "policies" about censorship and if so, what are they? Where can we find a copy?
If you've been censored by the major search engines like me or know anything about the censoring desks of the search engines, I'd like to hear from you.

Who/what is CW?
That's the new network born from the ashes of the WB and UPN.
I don't expect a Media owned by a military contractor to oppose Bush's wars.
Nevertheless the TV networks and stations are required by law to conduct themselves in the public interest. It is certainly against the public interest to not allow criticism of the president... or at least Teddy Roosevelt thought so.
There are other forms of media censorship. Read on.
