Even stars get grounded

The actor explains, "I'm being censored by the FAA and they're going to
ground me. The hardest thing about flying is holding altitude. It's a
three-dimensional effort."

That is indeed what the article said, but I doubt if the author quoted
Freeman accurately. I guess a journalist who doesn't know the
difference between being "censored" and being "censured" is probably
relegated to the entertainment press! g

The author may have, and a copy editor or intern copy editor may have
"fixed" it.

Or, even worse, turned the spelling checker on.

The "censored" part is only half of my disappointment with the article.
Morgan's purported take on the hardest part of flying is perhaps even more
unflattering. I wonder if it was purposefully taken out of context to cast
him in a "dim" [witted] light...

Perhaps the word he actually was one the reporter felt needed to be
"censOred"? And the editor just copied the "censored" transcript?
"I'm being f**ded by the FAA..."
