They blur the beer labels because the beer company didn't pay for product placement/advertising.

Yes I realize that. But should it be that way? I mean one brand label is shown for a few seconds and they bring out the blur beacuse they did not pay for it? Do we want programs full of beeps, blurs and tape overs? Tv is hardly watchable any more...

I realize it's [censored], but that's what American television, and the American way of life in general, have become. As George Carlin said, you don't get what you pay for anymore. You get what they feel like giving you. The only thing you can do about it is to stop watching and stop buying.
