Is it illegal to watch gymnastic and circus acrobats on American TV?

>>384351463
It's true though. There are other words to define other things. Censorship is de facto about goverments preventing people from spreading ideas on the public space. When you enter the private area, then all sort of editorial rules applies. And none are called censorship

Was Zangief's default outfit banned as well? EVO Top 8 was the first time I've ever seen him so covered up.

>>384351210
If the candidates had any balls they'd boycott the match until the costume was allowed.
But they don't, gamers are splinelss faggots who gets pushed around by fat women with thick rimmed glasses.

Lmao americans

Why don't they just preview and elect 2 official esport outfits already?
I'm sure Capcom would love to sell neutral TV approved, spornsor branded Esport DLC costumes.

>>384351619
MUHHHST BREEEED

>>384352149
>gamers
None of the esport players are gamers, they are professionals under work contracts. The were gamers years ago by since they sacrified everything for esport they have no choice than play by the sponsors rules or go flip burgers at mcdonalds.

does ESPN show beach volleyball / high diving / gymnastics / ice skating at the olympics or is that below their broadcasting standards?

>>384351210

cable channels don't even have to follow any fucking rules aside from keeping sponsors happy
and I don't see any sponsors dropping ESPN because of cartoon butt on their B channel

Supposedly, no.

fpbp, who gives a fuck about the old model. A few years ago people would still say 'such and such needs a tv show!' that would be a massive downgrade in freedom and creativity.

Has anyone ever gotten in trouble for this stuff in sports?

Was Capcom actually told to censor their outfits for broadcast or are they doing it pre-emptively out of fear?

I'm reminded of someone talking about how the ESRB said something about how many of the "censorship" changes didn't need to be done if they only talked to them.

>>384351331
They don't care, they love their buzzwords. They'll scream free speech like it somehow matters to private companies.

No Itazan always uses Father Winter Zangief because that skin is cool as shit.

If you pick another color it doesnt even look like a christmas themed costume and it works all year.

you want to know the real reason they did it?
because when people see video games, they think six year olds
and we can't show things that could be considered erotic to six year olds

>>384352876
Again, ESPN is owned by Disney. They don't wanna piss off the parents of the six year olds they market the majority of their media to.

>>384351210

No it isnt you dumb fucking shit anyone and any organisation can censor.

So were characters like Juri and Laura outright banned from the tournament?

>>384353673
Great excuse. Now we just need them to release SFV: Baby's Edition where all the offensive costumes and characters are removed.

any form of tampering with content that is deemed "inappropriate" to fit into a certain standard is censoring, the law explicitly states you can say whatever the fuck you want as long as no body dies from it

>>384351619

They're not showing beach volleyball on cable anymore either. The left are the new prudes.

Because nu wave feminism.

>>384355330
ESPN had beach volleyball immediately after the SFV finals.

>>384351210
They did the same shit with Mika last year. This shit shouldn't be tolerated but the FGC are cucks.

Also there is no magical rule that would censor Cammy on American TV. Also why even host the event if you are afraid of skimpy slutty chicks, which is like every fucking street fighter character? Good lord what if someone had played Laura top 8?

>>384355121
no youre mixing up your "ideas"
free speech has to do with the government vs the individual
people have children and prefer not to be forced to raise parasitic degenerates because some dumbass on the internet or else where decided their half baked ideas on existentialism and the facts of life deserve to be shared with people too young to form their own opinions

If I was the player I would refuse. Sure they may DQ me but if I was that far in the tournament I'd be a big name, and the fact I got DQ'd for playing the default costume would become an ultra hot button topic everywhere and make evo look really really bad. It's not as if you're some guy in pools. They literally couldn't do shit if the player refused aside from create a giant scene by removing him or just cutting the feed.

Do you actually believe some law exists that bans a leotard on American TV? Because I have seen tits on normal cable TV back in 2008, and I've seen PG-13 sex scenes on FX.

>>384355659
Riddle me this anon: If you do not allow a company the freedom to do as they wish with their own property, are you not censoring them? Do their rights end where yours begin?

>>384355873
companies vs individuals arent the same as individuals vs individuals

>>384355648
This could affect your future as a sponsored player though.

Would they censor thong Urien?
Why wasn't Dhalsim censored?

>>384356070
US Supreme court disagrees.

>>384356140
Not a worry for everyone. And again, the shitstorm of a player getting in trouble for using a default costume would save you because it's so absurd.

why are americans so afraid of the sexual imagen of fictional characters it only happen to them is rare when happen to real people is because fictional characters cant defens temselfs and sue for censure?

>>384352638

I'm sure you're well versed dude, relax

It seems strange that they would host the tournament if the game has objectional content to them. What were they going to do with Mika if someone used her super? Cut the feed?

>>384352346
Truth.

>>384357275
>Bayonetta won the Smash finals, right? That was aired on disney. Was there any outrage about her?

In the context of Smash 4 Bayonetta honestly isn't that sexualized and remains uncharacteristically covered up even through her wicked weave animations.

Yeah but the opposite of this is Japan who have zero problem with Lewd in video games played by kids and allow their children to give sexual consent on their 14th birthdays. I can bet you just because Japan allows it, no Japanese father likes the fact there are laws protecting people who would put their disgusting dicks into their 14 year old kids mouth and ejaculate in it. And get away with it because "muh law"
