Shut Up & Sing (2006)

For a lad who often has one eye cast over the American border this movie makes for illuminating viewing. Reading and hearing about freedom of speech in the land of the free and the home of the brave where one political slur results in a corporate ban from 270 radio stations, CD crushing, death threats and genuine vitriol causes some degree of confusion. How come so few came to their support?
