Black Sabbath War Pigs Banned From American Radio After 9/11
Right after the September 11, 2001 attacks, many media companies began censoring art deemed insensitive or anti-American, for fear of offending or upsetting the traumatized nation. One such entity was media corporation Clear Channel Communications (now iHeartMedia), who, three days after the attack, sent a memo to its 1,100+ radio stations with a list of songs that they deemed “lyrically questionable” and insensitive to play following the 9/11 attacks. War Pigs by Black Sabbath featuring Ozzy Osbourne was one of them. Some DJs chose to play these songs, but they were adamantly urged not to do so.
For many Americans, the September 11 attacks are the most important cultural turning point in history. The tragedy – in which radical Islamic terrorist group al-Qaeda flew passenger planes into both the World Trade Center towers and the Pentagon – was the deadliest terrorist attack in world history, and sparked both rampant patriotism throughout the U.S. and jingoistic anti-Muslim sentiment across much of the world. It also had a dramatic effect on the arts, inspiring many musicians and artists to confront darker themes that fans were suddenly dealing with, whether they liked it or not. Source: Kerrang
