In today’s SCMP there was a Letter "The hilarity of TV censors"
First, I burst out laughing. Then I felt an overwhelming sense of irritation. Then a feeling of utter nausea.

On Tuesday night, I was innocently watching a film on cable. One of the scenes took place inside a Venetian palazzo. Hung on the walls were some Renaissance paintings.

Then suddenly, as the camera scanned the canvasses, all of the breasts and thighs on the paintings were blurred out! That’s Hong Kong censorship for you. It was of course laughable.

The irritation came because we try so hard to tell and sell to the world the idea that Hong Kong is a world-class city.

And the nausea followed because I cannot imagine that our government is actually employing an army of censors to carry out these blocking blurs, which presumably they do on every single minute of broadcast!

Apart from the prudishness, it screams out with total ignorance. Somebody must do something about this hilariously delirious behaviour.
