Fox News actually has the word "asshole" on its front page

Van Jones has come under withering attacks in recent days following revelations that he called Republicans "assholes" and that he once joined the "9/11 truther" movement, which claimed that the Sept. 11, 2001 terrorist attacks may have been an inside job by the Bush administration.

I wonder if they are actually using the word in their broadcasts.

2. Most other news agencies appear to be censoring the word though

Fox is the only one I've seen that has written out the word "assholes" as opposed to "a**holes" or something similar.

3. I wonder what they would be doing with the LBJ administration

A-hole would be mild compared to some of the words they would have to transcribe that fell out of politicians' mouths back then.
