the air 1 bosses have then changed their decision to censor the word " faggot " from the 20 year old " fantasy of newly york " songs by the pogues . the initial censoring of the song made problems specifically as the lyrics had been airplay for 20 weeks despite censoring , and led in no people contacting the bbc saying the decision was " ridiculous " . the ban was also scolded for the fact that it only applied to radio 1 and not to radio 2 or any other frequency on the cbc website .
"Fairytale of New York" does not contain the word "faggot".
