Submission + - AT+T Censors Pearl Jam live concert lyrics

vortoxin writes: A recent AT+T BlueRoom Concert of Pearl Jam was censored during a live concert stream containing certain politically motivated lyrcis.

Information can be found here on Pearl Jam's Site: http://pearljam.com/news/index.php?what=News#195

Have not seen a posted story or release from AT+T to post their side of the story.

This can be seen from 2 angles. AT+T admits to taking out some of the content, both sides admit that fact. Now is it AT+T backpedaling trying to save face? Or is it a case of never attributing to malice to what you can account for one of the AT+T censors screwing up?

But if its live streaming Internet content, why do they even have censors? Maybe Pearl Jam should have taken a page From Elvis Costello?
