Madonna denied the right to rage

Off Our Backs, Jan/Feb 2002 by Scharff, Sue

The attempt by MTV and VH-1 to silence this statement of female rage is pathetic. The print media's unwillingness to fulfill their obligation to expose the free speech charlatans for what they are is dangerous. Maybe we all need to go out and buy the video to show our support for a woman who thought that freedom of speech wasn't for men only. I'll see you in the video store; I'll be the one singing: "Strong inside but you don't know it/Good little girls they never show it/When you open up your mouth to speak/Could you be a little weak?"
