iCensorship? Apple trims inconvenient question from ‘Promised Land’ podcast

“Apple teamed up with [Matt] Damon to promote the actor’s new movie ‘Promised Land,’ a film attacking both oil and gas companies as well as the process of fracking,” Breitbart New reports.

“The mega-company hosted a Q&A with the film’s stars Dec. 3 at an Apple store in Soho,” Breitbart New reports. “Damon and John Krasinski, who co-wrote the film together, took part in the live discussion.

MacDailyNews Note: If they are practicing “iCensorship,” Apple’s doing a horrilbe job: McAleer’s documentary, Not Evil Just Wrong, is available for sale (US$9.99) via Apple’s iTunes Store.
