AT&T Censors Pearl Jam at Lollapalooza

Pearl Jam is calling for Net Neutrality after AT&T recently censored their webcast of their performance at Lalloapalooza. So what was it that got AT&T up at arms with their performance to extent that they needed to protect our innocent American ears? Just the usual, freedom of speech:

During the performance of "Daughter" the following lyrics were sung to the tune of Pink Floyd's "Another Brick in the Wall" but were cut from the webcast:- "George Bush, leave this world alone." (the second time it was sung); and- "George Bush find yourself another home."

Now this really sucks and I am glad Pearl Jam is fighting back! Whether you are for or against the Bush regime, both voices need to be heard. Isn't that what a democracy suppose to be about? You can read more at:
