May 26, 2016 at 14:33 comment added Darrel Hoffman One question though: Is dropping two F-bombs in one line considered one offense? Or two? They happen so close to eachother it's hard to imagine anyone being offended by one of them and not the other...

May 25, 2016 at 18:51 comment added Napoleon Wilson @kuhl That's not what the question asks as a whole. It wasks why the words were bleeped in the movie. Neither does it make any presuptions about PG-13 per se, nor does it exclude a proper in-universe interpretation of the matter, which some of the already existing answers adress rather excellently. The matter here seems much more elbaorate than merely "PG-13 -> no fucks". Neither are we closing questions as duplicates based on some possible old answer's appliance to the new question. The questions are significantly different in their very essence.
May 25, 2016 at 18:51 comment added kuhl @NapoleonWilson "Did the rating of Catching Fire require curse words such as "fuck" to be bleeped out" I guess I read that as a general movies rating question using a specific movie as an example.
May 25, 2016 at 18:49 comment added kuhl @NapoleonWilson maybe I'm misreading the question. From my understanding the OP is asking if the goal of a PG 13 rating caused "fuck" to be censored. The other answer states the requirements for a PG 13 movie and provides the answer to the OPs question. Yes, PG13 movies can only have 1 and so for Catching Fire to be PG 13, they had to cut or censor the word.
May 25, 2016 at 18:39 comment added loneboat I always thought it was a [successful] shot at humor and character-illustration, with the words being bleeped in-universe. The humor was that Johanna was such an in-your-face personality that she surprised both the host and the audience by not caring what she said, despite being on live TV. Rating concerns aside, if they had NOT bleeped the words, that joke would have been lost, along with the insight into Johanna's personality.

May 25, 2016 at 11:53 comment added Napoleon Wilson It might be helpful to know that PG-13 allows exactly one single "fuck" (for whatever reason).
