Why would you bother airing a movie on tv that had been edited so much?

For ex:

The movie, Vacation. The tv version has “My science teacher says I’m the best at it.” When the original line is, “My daddy says I’m the best at it.” This is in reference to Vicky french kissing. I can understand why some people might be offended by the original line, but when you know what the line is, and it’s been changed deliberately, it just doesn’t have the same effect.

Also a Resident Evil movie had motherfkr as the original swear word. Instead they used motivator.

Also, this goes the same for songs on the radio. In some cases, ass is bleeped out. But bytch is still kept. Or it’s the b word that’s left out and ass is kept.

Why air a movie on a channel that doesn’t allow swearing or other offensive statements? Why bother playing a song that’s been edited so much?
