Rage Against The Machine doesn't do what you tell them

Rage Against The Machine was on BBC Radio 5 back in 2009 to promote a battle with them and X Factor's winner to be at the top of the charts for Christmas. Fans started this campaign as a "protest" against the pop music being promoted around the time. Anyway, before they were on, the people at BBC had asked Rage to play a clean version of the song, omitting the infamous chorus of "fuck you I won't do what you tell me" at the end of the song. The band told them that they would omit it but come on, did anyone really expect them to keep their promise on this? Here's a YouTube video of the incident. Everyone with half a brain had to see this coming from a mile away. Then the female broadcaster has the audacity to proclaim "so buy Joe's [the X Factor winner] records" just because they cursed on air. Wahhhh. (Article about the incident)
