I know they cut the really obvious Black stereotypes quite some time before that (I bought the DVDs and was rather surprised at how many I missed)--either the entire cartoon or scenes from it. I bet they've cut the Arabian ones too by now... "Hassan chop!"

But when you think of the number of stereotypes in those cartoons--or violence--it's a wonder they get any play at all any more. Oh wait...they really don't, do they?

Never heard that about Tweety, though. Mind you, I had always thought he was a she for those reasons!


EDIT: oh, and this has to be one of the lamest openings EVER!
