What the Bleep?!
Smut filters gone wild on CEPro.com
By Julie Jacobson

CE Pro recently switched to a new Web platform. A kinder, gentler, cleaner platform than the predecessor.
So I'm not surprised that, when I revisited some of my old porn-related blogs (I mean, who wouldn't?), I saw a lot of this: #######.
"Porn" was bleeped out, as was "sex." Fair enough, what with all the children that visit CEPro.com.
But it got to be a little silly when the engine bleeped out "sex" in my story about the acquisition of Runco:
The company announced yesterday it would be acquired by Planar Systems, Inc. (NASDAQ: PLNR), a publicly traded company with considerably less ### appeal.
More laughable still, in an article about a calibration tool in Media Center Edition, I lost my balls. Rather, Mike Seamons of Exceptional Innovation did, per a caption that shows him adjusting a system:
Mike Seamons demonstrates the Video Calibration Wizard. If the ##### are round and the chalk is square, then the aspect ratio is correct.
But that's not all. Until we changed the smut filter, my bio boasted that I had graduated magna ### laude from the University of Michigan.
LM#O!

Update, June 24
Look what I just discovered in my spam filter from one of our Web producers:
Hopefully we never write about one of your customers that has a sh*g carpet.
