Well I wasn't implying that the people who had already commented had no common sense, but its pretty obvious that they censored it for the attention.
The radio has never been shy to banning songs that they thought where unsuitable, I believe one of Alanis Morisettes songs got banned from air completely rather than censored, and that was in the 90's, when nobody even mentioned the term 'politically correct'.
If it was a new song then I may feel more compelled to say it is just a simple censorship and perhaps a PC issue, but when the song is an old favourite at xmas time, I just get the impression that its to attract attention to the radio station. Only no publicity is bad publicity.
