The memoirs of a network censor - spending so much time in this conservative, rambling and not that witty man's head is not a pleasant experience, but a few anecdotes and especially all the transcripts of stuff he did censor made it still worth the read.

[Vincenzo Aversa · Rating 2 out of 5]

Qualche simpatico aneddoto su una vecchia America televisiva e la censura nel Saturday Night Live non bastano a mantenere sempre interessante un libro che si sforza per tutto il tempo di spiegare come la censura sia necessaria, buona e giusta. Quasi sempre almeno.

I knew it was going to suck, when he mentioned his admiration for Ronald Reagan on page 3.
