Comedian Andrew Santino says he went to "war" with Disney over censorship in his upcoming Hulu stand-up special, accusing the company of forcing him to tone down jokes about so-called "Disney adults.""They definitely changed the jokes," Santino told Variety."I was not stoked about that. We got into a little bit of a war. They did not want those jokes in there."Santino said the special, titled "White Noise" and premiering September 12, was flagged by Disney executives after they previewed it. The backlash centered on his bit about adult Disney superfans who frequently visit the parks without children and wear branded apparel.BILL MAHER SLAMS MODERN ENTERTAINERS FOR LACKING OLD-SCHOOL WORK ETHIC"My argument was: I joke about a lot of other stuff in the special thats controversial.
