[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I remember years ago reading about new editions published in the 70s and 80s of noir novels originally published in the 40s and 50s in which racial and ethnic slurs from the originals were removed but profanity and sexually explicit scenes censored from the originals were reinstated.

That would seem to be a better solution.  They already did it once to the Mulberry book.  Other than publisher discretion and all that crap, it doesn't seem like they really considered this or any other alternative viewpoint.  [/quote]

Maybe they did and decided it wouldn't be profitable. Did you forget that we are talking about a business?[/quote]
Maybe they did, but thet sure don't sound that way and neither does anyone else defending their decision.  I've pretty much decided to go by my own subjective judgement of your motives, since that's what everyone else does.  Did you forget that your motives are highly questionable?[/quote]
