"26 years after the &lt;strong&gt;Dire Straits&lt;/strong&gt; classic hit \"&lt;strong&gt;Money for Nothing&lt;/strong&gt;\" first hit the airwaves ... the song has been ruled \"too offensive\" to be broadcast on Canadian radio ... because of a homophobic lyric. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;img src=\"http://ll-media.tmz.com/2011/01/13/0113-dire-straits-bn-getty-credit.jpg\" alt=\"0113_dire_straits_BN_Getty\" /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The issue first arose last year, after someone filed a complaint explaining that the song contained the homophobic F-word ... three different times. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The Canadian Broadcast Standards Council ruled that the word is indeed offensive -- and ordered radio stations to use an edited version of the song. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The CBSC explained that societal values have \"shifted\" since the song debuted ... and \"the broadcast of the song in 2010 must reflect those values, rather than those of 1985.\""^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
