Put the LGBT playbook down and come up with your own comments!
I don't pay much attention to LGBT. Could care less, doesn't concern me. Certainly never read the playbook.
Is it your contention that the OP wasn't taking a shot at Fox News?

Fox Channel Blurs Out Breasts on Picasso Painting

The Women of Algiers (Version “O), a painting by Pablo Picasso, became the most expensive work to ever sell at an auction this week. Sadly, some TV viewers of a New York affiliate of Fox were treated to a blurry, G-rated version.

The painting, which sold for $179.4 million at Christie’s auction house in New York on Monday night, shows several female figures in the Cubist style, including several pairs of breasts and a couple of errant nipples. Fox 5, the Fox affiliate in New York City, obscured three pairs of breasts and covered up two nipples with a news banner at the bottom of the screen.
While I wholeheartedly agree that blurring out boobs in a painting is a bit of puritanical silliness, I would hardly think it meets the definition of "political correctness".

Obama is attacking Fox news because he's upset their not part of the lap dog media getting tingles because he is. Since Obama put out the word liberal media must be all over it. OP is just parroting.... nothing new.

I saw the story on HLN (CNN light) yesterday, and they did not blur the breasts. No part of the painting was blurred or out of camera.

You really think that is taking PC to a whole new level? To me I would say big deal.
