accessible censorship

Dave and I were watching a Roadrunner music DVD this morning… and were amused that in one clip, not only was the word “fuck” silenced, but the singer’s mouth was blurred while he was singing it.

Accessible censorship? For the benefit of any hearing-impaired lip-reading watchers, in case they were offended by the mouth formation of the word?
