Censorship is all around us. We see it in the media and in schools. Censorship similarly to the banning and challenging of books is in the search of protection to the viewers. If a book is rated to be for a certain age group and then depicts what a group seems to be completely inappropriate for the intended age group, that is what causes the drive to challenge it. Censorship in america has to follow rules that were conducted under the first amendment that go with americans 1st amendment rights. Many of you have stated that you are against censorship ,and you have the right to.For instance, movies have ratings to let viewers know the level of censorship they will have. However, censorship within the media is the most appropriate form of drawing a line between what is being implied and what is being displayed.
