But back to the topic at hand--"Greek" show--good or bad for the Greek community? I think we are all in agreement about one thing. It's not uplifting to the Greek community, nor is it flattering. But again, we're in America, and sex sells, as well as anything else that is not exactly wholesome.

No......Wal Mart cannot decide to edit a copyrighted CD and then sell it how they see fit. This is Illegal. That is up to the music producer and the artist. As far as the radio........artists have "radio edits" of their songs that are specifically mixed for.......the radio. How is this censorship? Nobody is forcing artists to clean up their lyrics. If they don't want to have songs on the air or sell them at Wal Mart......they don't have to.
