"Well folks, he’s at it again… Alice Cooper, your favourite shock rocker, has again succeeded in shocking the censors in America.  But we have just the remedy for you! Last night Alice played “Vengeance Is Mine” from 'Along Came A Spider' on 'The Late Late Show With Craig Ferguson' on the CBS Network in the U.S.  And he wasn’t allowed to do it the way he wanted to! He wanted to re-enact a piece of his new video by picking a female victim from the audience to choke with a silk scarf.  But the TV Station wouldn’t allow it!  Huh?!  Like we don’t see violence on the news?  Anyways…..Alice wasn’t allowed to.  All’s not fair in TV and Rock ‘n’ Roll it seems."
