^ That's so true and I think You Tube knows it. I'm not clear on why they're shutting down the cartoons - is it that they think it's offensive or due to licensing? If they're doing it because they think it's offensive, then half the stuff on the Internet would be taken down in general!

Joe Barbera dies
The legendary Joe Barbera, one half of famous cartoon pioneers Hanna Barbera,
has died of natural causes. He was 95.
Barbera, together with the late Bill Hanna, created enduring characters like Tom and Jerry, The Flintstones, Yogi Bear, The Jetsons, Scooby-Doo, and Huckleberry Hound.
"From the stone age to the space age and from prime-time to Saturday mornings, syndication and cable, the characters he created with his late partner, William Hanna, are not only animated superstars, but also a very beloved part of American pop culture. While he will be missed by his family and friends, Joe will live on through his work," Warner Bros. chairman Barry Meyer said in a statement.
For those of you who don't know, some of the cartoons he's known for all the following:
The Jetsons
The Flinstones
Scooby Doo Where Are You?
Yogi Bear
...and many more.

And they're making a big deal because only one person got offended.

PBS did it to Cookie Monster. It could happen :shrug:
ETA: In response to the article, I've written my rants on my LJ and the News Board. :look:

Great thread idea, angel!
Editing classic cartoons? Um, I don't know. Originally they were never intended for kids (like the older cartoons such as Looney Tunes & Tom and Jerry) but I know that over time they obviously have. But all the little humor like the Road Runner dropping and anvil on Wile E. Coyote and Tom and Jerry getting into their great mischiefs - those are freakin' classics! You can't edit those! That takes away from what they were. Even as Tom and Jerry got older, it stared to get boring because they were more about being buds helping others out. Yes, a great message but... NOT THEM! That's like making Bugs out to be a kind character not stirring up a little trouble. That would be boring. Let them screw up their own cartoons but leave the classics alone!

News about cartoons happen all the time. Got any cartoon news to share or that you have found?
I came across while making my rounds in dailyrotten.com
'Tom and Jerry' smoking scenes snuffed out
Turner Broadcasting is scouring more than 1,500 classic Hanna-Barbera cartoons, including old favourites Tom and Jerry, The Flintstones and Scooby-Doo, to edit out scenes that glamorise smoking.
The review has been triggered by a complaint to British media regulator Ofcom by one viewer who took offence to two episodes of Tom and Jerry shown on the Boomerang channel.
The channel is part of Turner Broadcasting, which itself belongs to Time Warner.
"We are going through the entire catalogue," Yinka Akindele, a spokeswoman for Turner in Europe, said.
"This is a voluntary step we've taken in light of the changing times."
She says the review has been prompted by the Ofcom complaint.
The regulator's latest news bulletin states that a viewer, who is not identified, has complained about two smoking scenes on Tom and Jerry.
The viewer says the scenes are "not appropriate in a cartoon aimed at children".
In the first, Texas Tom, the hapless cat Tom tries to impress a feline female by rolling a cigarette, lighting it and smoking it with one hand.
In the second, Tennis Chumps, Tom's opponent in a match smokes a large cigar.
"The licensee has ... proposed editing any scenes or references in the series where smoking appeared to be condoned, acceptable, glamorised or where it might encourage imitation," Ofcom said, adding that Texas Tom was one such example.
Changing times
Ms Akindele says cartoons will only be modified "where smoking could be deemed to be cool or glamorised", and that scenes where a villain is featured with a cigarette or cigar will not necessarily be cut.
"These are historic cartoons, they were made well over 50 years ago in a different time and different place," she added.
"Our audience is children and we don't want to be irresponsible."
Turner Broadcasting in the United States could not immediately be reached for comment.
Ofcom says it recognises smoking was more generally accepted when cartoons were produced in the 1940s, 50s and 60s.
But it argues the threshold for including such scenes when the audience is predominantly young should be high.

Great...not only they complain about the "excessive" violence in those cartoons and not only we have those banned cartoons, but those cartoons back then were not meant for children.
But it's just me. What's your two cents on this?
