There is also a big difference between Dave Letterman censoring the content of his own show and the infringement on freedom of speech\press. I understand the use of hyperbole to make a point, but if we repeatedly call a molehill a mountain, how are we going to recognize a mountain when it really exists...ummm, okay that doesn't make great sense, what I'm trying to say is that calling the Ani-Dave situation censorship and a violation of the freedom of speech and of the press belittles situations such as the Tianamen Square massacre where people were killed for speaking out and the media was banned from reporting it. It also is too dismissive of some important rights and privileges we have in the U.S. Part of what makes this country great is the right to complain about what's wrong with it.
