The Always Classy Fox News Chimes in on Lady Gaga's new video.

"We have to speculate if she has a male member or not"

"We got Beyonce and Gaga as gay lesbian lovers. It's disgusting!"

If Fox had their way we would be listening to Charlie Daniels,Pat Boone,Ted Nugent and Kid Rock.

I don't see a problem. Lady GaGa's job is to shock and provoke. If people weren't reacting, LG wouldn't have done her job.

Did you watch the clip Goth? Your heroes at Fox suggest it be banned even for those who like it. It's destroying society and the world. Oh, and why isn't an honest debate allowed on Fox? Wouldn't it be fair and balanced to have someone with an apposing viewpoint on to discuss their side? Both bimbo's pretty much agreed it was pornography!(LOL)

Goth the way you defend your base is scary. Even when they are wrong you will stand by them. You are the perfect lapdog. Here's your treat, now go away!

I thought the video for "Telephone" was REALLY Bad.
It was just not done right for that song, one of the first lines is about being in a "club" so why are they in a prison. Didn't fit.

I think Gaga is a talented singer/songwriter, but she should stick to the music and not all the horrific outfits and bad dance numbers.

I liked it. It seems like an homage to Quentin Tarantino movies like Kill Bill. If every video stuck to the song lyrics, videos would be very boring.

And, Fox, as usual, exaggerated the shock value. There was a lot more of the video that they could've shown. They chose to show one of the more provocative dance numbers.

I agree that a decent, fair and civilised network/show would have a debate (or at least opposing views) to balance out the story if they were going to have someone with such hardcore opinions interviewed.

They make out that the video has a full on nudity, genital close up and mutilation of her 'male member', explicit lesbian sex scenes and brutal slaughter.

I clearly watched a different video from them.

At the end of the day, this video (and Gaga herself) is not aimed at this kind of close minded audience...so there's no wonder they wouldn't get/like it, but to make it seem like sadistic pornography that would entice sexual predators from their caves and prey on children...and demand for its ban, is too far and ridiculous.

The censored version (without the jail 'dick' scene, lesbian kiss and swearing) is what is on tv. Essentially all that happens in the edit, is she dances in a leather bikini (no different from the countless hip hop videos with scantily clad groupies), gets fed in a humorous way by Beyonce...and they, SHOCK, hold hands at the end. The 'mass murder scene' is dealt with in a satirical and humorous way, they poison food...it's not like they pull out guns and brutally murder them all.

The full, explicit, version is 18+ on YouTube. So, the only place these kids could watch the poisonous wonder in its full splendour...is on LadyGaga.com, which lets face it...most won't bother with.

We here in America deprive out teens of innocence. Not like say Bangkok Thailand or other parts of the world where they are working as prostitutes! Or parts of the middle East where they are betrothed to men two times their age.

Does MTV still ban videos? They don't even play them anymore.

Remember when Cher got banned for If I Could Turn Back Time? Then they decided they wouldn't show it before 7PM. Every night at 7PM like clockwork, that video would come on.

It's not the best video.

If Lady Gaga had set the video in the club, as the lyrics suggest, it would've been predictable.

It seems like they're making a mountain out of a mole hill. If it was censored for TV what is the big deal?

I didn't see goth defending "his base" here. He defended Gaga. Wait, he has a base?

This same woman made a huge deal over the song "If U Seek Amy" .. luckily Britney got her back in the video.

I don't like the video, but that's because I think it is stupid. Why isn't the media all over the rappers and R&B singers who have girl's in thongs humping the singer and other people? Christina Aguilera was right when she stated that when a man does things, it's "cool" but when a woman does it, she's a whore. Also, on basic cable, you have people shooting, stabbing, blowing people up, etc. but you show bare skin and it's going to create an apocalypse.
