Why did I not know this before?

Hey Danny P! You got some splainin to do! Are they trying to attract hard liner profs from the Saudis or are they gunning for a true down home Deliverance-esque 'flyover country' vibe?

They had a ban on You Tube? Heavens to Murgatroid. You mean they missed all of Kerry's videos? If I recall correctly, I think it was also BYU that censored out the naked women in Schindler's List, which is sort of like censoring many of the works of Michelangelo (which was probably banned too?).

Heureka !! I've found out !!

There was an article about Mormon art "Where are our Michelangelos?" or similar title.
I don't remember it was in "Dialogue" or in "Sunstone" or was it said by one of previous prophets. (The categories who may be wrong...)

Now we know it. Our Michelangelos are banned.
