I was thinking about that recently on a stroll through Wal-Mart.

I knew about the sanitized albums, but then I noticed they carried Director's Cuts of many movies. I noticed movies that were criticized for their excesses, like The Devil's Rejects. And I thought to myself, "why doesn't Wal-Mart censor their movies, too?"

My guess is they would have, if this court case had gone the other direction. Maybe this ruling precludes such a turn of events.

Though I'm glad they haven't tried to censor movies, it strikes me as hypocritical that Wal-Mart to hold such a stance on music, but not movies. Guess it wouldn't be the first time Wal-Mart was accused of hypocrisy...
