They are well established prudes who won't show nudity in their newspapers. How did Benny Hill become more popular in the US than even the UK.

Love Benny Hill.
From 1978 to 1991 My Dad and I watched him every night at 11:00pm on Channel 9 here in Nyc
The only poster who had his account banned 4 times without ever breaking any rules each of those times.

Nudity in newspapers is stupid and not needed. You must be referring to trash papers.
