Tina Fey's Speech Gets Editted!

Tina Fey was awarded the Mark Twain award the other night on PBS. PBS editted her speech because it went over time. What they editted out is her criticisms of Sarah Palin on Rape Kits, Gay Marriage and Evolution. Hmmm...

Anyway, here is her speech in its entirety. The editted portion starts around 12:30.

Watch the full episode. See more Mark Twain Prize.

PBS is usually pretty good with this stuff. I am pretty sure it is solely a time thing.

btw, I forget how damned funny Tina Fey is in stand-up.

Yes, it is indeed a pure coincidence that the minute of political commentary that Ms Fey did, was edited out. But! as a Publically Funded Broadcast System, They can't run over their designated time slots, as that could disrupt the programs that are being broadcast afterwards. To think that a Publically Funded (through private donations of course!) Broadcaster would in Any Way try to Interfere with Any Private Citizen's Right to Free Speech is of Course, Ludicrous!
