My TIVO records television shows that it thinks I would like and saves them as TIVO Recommendations. It does a good job of finding the one hour of music videos played on MTV.

This morning as I was getting ready for work, I played the recorded videos. One of the videos was "Beautiful Girls" by Sean Kingston. It is a catchy little tune about a guy who won't date a girl because she is too beautiful and he fears that she would have him jealous all the time. "You're way too beautiful girl...That's why I'd never get with you...You'd have me suicidal, suicidal"

MTV decided it should bleep out the suicidal part.

Now I understand that we don't want to promote suicide among teenage males on any level but should MTV be bleeping out the word suicide when they leave in other offensive words in many other videos...and if they are going to become censors, maybe they should stop showing booty videos! Maybe MTV should do an MTV News expose on suicide. Back in my day, MTV was so cutting edge...now it is a sex driven ratings ploy...it is such a shame!
