American Idiots

I did an article on this six or seven years ago in prairie dog. With all the on-line music sources out there now, it's probably not as big a deal as it was back then, when Wal-Mart had the clout to shut artists that didn't meet its "moral" standards out of many small and mid-size retail markets. Still, the policy remains a pretty lame trampling of artistic freedom in our society. (InMusic)
