Delaying a Broadcast Live event by at least a few seconds so that any inappropriate material can be removed or bleeped out. This practice is used by all live radio stations in the UK. It is also found in any online video game competition with money on the line: live streaming will have some sort of delay to prevent the players from using the stream to spy on their opponents. Furthermore, digital video encoding will always cause delays to occur — an update to the video systems of popular game streaming site Twitch caused delays of up to 60 seconds.

Between an audience member flashing her boobs on camera and Jane Fonda dropping a C-bomb, it's surprising that NBC's Today Show still isn't on a broadcast delay. Not that we are complaining, mind you... (All of the morning shows are usually tape-delayed for every time zone by default.) | |

Coach's Corner, a longstanding segment of Hockey Night in Canada, has had this happen a couple of times due to controversial remarks by analyst Don Cherry about French Canadians and Europeans. | |

Similarly, Slash of Guns N' Roses turned up for a music award very drunk, and slurred out some curses before mumbling "oops", which led directly to the introduction of a time delay. | |

Most episodes of WWE Monday Night Raw run this way. It's most obvious in the last episode to air on Spike TV, in which the audio suddenly drops any time the words "USA Network" are mentioned, and a "Technical Difficulties" screen comes up any time a sign mentioning USA is seen in the crowd. As the commentators catch on to what is going on, they start having a lot of fun with trying to beat the censor, giving us a lot of surreal commentary. One obvious example of this delay in action was Vince McMahon's 2001 live speech announcing his plans for the purchase of WCW - since TNT didn't have a similar delay for the Nitro episode, the feed shown on Raw happened to be lagging several seconds behind the Nitro feed of the same speech. An odd aversion came in Bret Hart's infamous "Frustrated isn't the Goddamn word for it! THIS IS BULLSHIT!" speech in 1997. Vince McMahon told Hart that the delay would be active and supervised so he could get as colorful as he wanted, but he was lying and it went out as is. Muted words were noticeable over the next several months, though the censorship was inconsistent: Shawn Michaels saying "'Tough titty' said the kitty" went out as is while Hart quoting Michaels was censored a week or two later. In a variation for Canadian viewers, after The Score (now Sportsnet 360) picked up the rights to air Raw from TSN in 2006, they began airing it on a 15 minute tape delay, with a countdown show preceding it at 9:00 PM (similar to Canada's domestic version of The WWE Experience.) While this did build in a lot of time to remove or censor objectionable content, the 15 minute delay was actually due to CRTC limitations on how much live content The Score could air in a given period. After Rogers purchased the channel and fully rebranded it in 2013, Raw began airing live in Canada once again. |

Studio 60 on the Sunset Strip: NBS at one point is faced with a $73m fine from the FCC after a soldier and reporter (who'd just come under RPG fire in Afghanistan) used that word you can't say on American television in a live news report. Realistically, this would be incredibly unlikely, as the FCC gives more latitude to news coverage featuring profanity as out of the control of any authority, and for networks it can only fine owned-and-operated stations rather than affiliates in most cases, which unless the network was completely careless and let multiple f-bombs fly, could never get anywhere near $73 million. It was based on a tentative FCC complaint where PBS's Frontline was at risk of a multi-million dollar fine for the number of uses of the F-word in its special "A Company of Soldiers." Even then, it was approximately $500,000 per incident. In another episode of Studio 60 they make use of the West Coast Delay to edit out a segment in which they inadvertently plagiarized another comic's bit; and then they had to do it again for the Hawaii feed when they had to edit the edit. The latter would never happen in real life; at that point the network would just give up and either cut the bit entirely or still-screen a boilerplate apology for the benefit of Honolulans. |

In Origin Story, Alex Harris, in her superhero identity "Superwoman," makes a guest appearance on "The Monsters in the Morning," a morning drive-time shock-jock show in Orlando, Florida. One of the hosts asks for her opinion on the Avengers, leading to the following comments: | |

Referenced in Mass Effect 3's "Citadel" DLC. The Armax Arsenal Arena, which sports televised simulation combat, is usually live, but a screw-up (stemming from an elusive code bug that may or may not have been intentional) at one point pits the player against a scenario that's erroneously set the force feedback to dangerous levels. When the arena controllers manage to open a line to Shepard, they explain the situation, and are heard saying "go to seven-second delay" before cutting out, presumably in case Shepard's death is too messy. | |

The timezone variant is surprisingly averted in 30 Rock for a fifth-season live broadcast; half the country got one live performance, and the other half got a second live performance. | |

Big Brother in the UK goes haywire with this, not even showing footage of the housemates when they silence it (they usually cut to the chickens in the back garden). Wouldn't be so bad if they didn't do it way post-watershed as well - it's very confusing to watch overzealous censoring at 3am. The late night/early morning censorship tends to be when potentially libelous material is being said, e.g. references to friends and commercial brands. Or if someone's saying something exciting so you'll watch the highlights show. Or if the housemates are singing — as Endemol and the carrying channel may have to clear music rights. Not every broadcaster has blanket agreements with the PRS or equivalent. Also ...Live is/was delayed by fifteen whole minutes anyway- more than long enough for more strategic censoring. There is no politics on the broadcast, as George Galloway MP found out the hard way. The US Version also has a delay during their live feeds. Anytime a houseguest starts singing a song, the feeds will immediately cut away to prevent copyright issues. The voice of Big Brother will tell the houseguests to 'STOP SINGING!'. |

For the first 42 seasons of Saturday Night Live, the show ran on tape delay in the Mountain and Pacific time zones. Starting with the last few episodes of Season 42 in spring 2017, the show has aired live across the whole country, which requires it to run in the Pacific time zone three hours earlier. On a few occasions with hosts thought to be controversial—the Richard Pryor episode from season 1 (1975), the Sam Kinison episode from season 12 (1986), and the Andrew "Dice" Clay episode from 1990 (season 15)—the show has aired on a seven-second delay to avoid the possibility of swear words going out live on the air. | |

Every live broadcast is delayed by 3 hours on the West Coast. Saturday Night Live? We never get to see any accidents/major screwups, they've had 3 hours to edit them out. American Idol finale? Don't go on the Internet for 3 hours prior to the announcement... you will see the answer in headlines and Twitter before you get to see it on TV. NBC does this with its Olympics coverage: despite the point of live sports being that it's live, important events are aired on three-hour tape delay. Want to see if Michael Phelps broke the record for gold medals? Too bad; you can't see it live. Heck, in Beijing, they made a huge deal about pushing the organizers to put certain swimming finals in the morning so they could show them live in U.S. primetime ... on the East anyway. Made rather ridiculous with the 2010 Vancouver Games. Despite taking place in the Pacific Time Zone, those in the same time zone in the United States couldn't watch the games live! Seems that NBC finally learned part of their lesson though, as they announced that it would stream all of the events online beginning at London. However, they still showed events on primetime tape delay... (including the ceremonies; only the closing ceremonies were streamed following a huge outcry from viewers, #nbcfail) |
