Our media used to also sanitize certain material out when importing from other markets (across the world), including things that came out of the BBC. In the past decade or so a lot of that has changed to see what could be gotten through, so if anything, it's the media testing the boundaries.
i don't see how it's my own bias when i don't like and don't watch Kimmel
