This is from Canadian television, which did not cut out part of Sally Fields remarks as she accepted her Emmy Sunday night.

Why can Eastwood and Willis say whatever they want on screen and be hailed as pro Americans and Ms. Fields be censored?
Better start practicing what you preach neo-cons.

[anastasiabeaverhousen]

It was aired on fox. What did you expect? Fair and balanced? Get a grip.

FOX PROTECTING US ONCE AGAIN.

I'm a mother too, and I applaud you Sally Fields, along with Cindy Sheehan and all women who publicly defy authority and question the barbarity of war. Peace is the only true solution.

Thank you CBC for keeping your broadcast uncensored. Hurray for Canada!

...and this from a Flying Nun!

GIDGET'S, speech was not censored! The word, GODDAMN, was censored.
If you, ANTI-AMERICAN, ANTI-MILITARY, ANTI-WAR, IGNORANT, LEFTIST PINHEADS are not willing to fight for your country. THEN LEAVE and don't let the door hit you in the ass on your way out. YOU SOCIAL PARASITES!

[ConnieInCleveland]

I think Sally Field struck a nerve. What did you think of Chuck Hagel? He's no LEFTIST PINHEAD! He's one of your own!

[MalloMel]

Chuck Hagel is not going to run for re-election. Therefore, he can afford to tell the truth.

I wonder how many more would tell the truth if they did not intend to run again. This goes for Democrats as well as Republicans.

[MalloMel]

I served 4 years. Does that give me the right to an opinion?

Also, Why would the word GODDAMN be censored? Because it offends some people? The crap that right wingers in this country are spewing and doing, that is destroying this great country, offends me.

LETS HERE YOUR MILITARY RECORD!!!!!!!!!

Amazing how ignorant these self congratulators are? She speaks for all mothers? My mother never used language like that.
What about the Muslim mothers who are not only willing to send their brood out to war, but they actually raise them to be martyrs and killers.
Another hollyweirdo who thinks because they got a 7 share (less than 3% of the population) that everyone loves them and they represent the entire country.
What military hospital has she visited?
She stated that her main goal after the award show was not to further her "cause" but to drink wine. I think to continue what she started before the show. Slurring drunken ranting. Amazing.

[MalloMel]

Obviously, she does not speak for all mothers, but she does speak for almost all mothers of 'War Age'
who love their children.

Actually, what I said may not apply here, but if there was a draft, then it surely would apply.

[MalloMel]

Correction: mothers of 'War age children,'

[MalloMel]

Hillary voted for this war as a last resort. This is Bush's war.

Another thing... I don't think Jesus would recognize Bush as one of his own, nor would he try to save Bush. He'd probably just jam Bush into Hell.

[heywichud]

What About Hillary Clinton? She is a mom and she voted for this war. Oh yea she has been bought out like the rest of the men. It all comes down to money.

If God stopped by to damn anything, it would be wars and censorship.
FOX, which god do you pray to? The god of peace and truth, or the god of war and fearful silence.

[PuffDragon]

Welcome to the New America: where impeaching a corrupt President can't be discussed in public, nor can criticizing his pet war. (this kind of "democracy" is what our soldiers are fighting for over there?????)

Sally Fields has such light, grace and wisdom - just what we need more of in this world, and this country.

[jrosenb1]

Ms. Fields was terrific. The Canadian version of her speech should be made more widely available (and I think it will). It's a sad comment on our country's chronic inability to handle the truth that the completion of her speech was censored. Good gosh, four years into a ruinous and widely unpopular war and the media censors still think we should be protected from our own outlook? People are dying out there!

[JMark64]

They censored that? Oh, for crying out loud.

[Nihilistic]

How dare Sally Field blaspheme war!

[TILL]

...pretty...inside too.
