Censorship in Radio and T.V.

As of today it's often said that from the blurry images on tv to the blanked out words on the radio, that censorship is usually been seen everywhere. It can be described as the act or practice of putting down material allow obnoxious on moral, political, military, and other grounds. Censorship has been around forever and has been done by different groups, such as there has been government, sometimes you see religious groups, corporations, and mass media. Censorship is also seen in every country and each of them may have its own guidelines in regards to censorship.

So during the game you can call a helicopter to drop a bomb and it will kill all the people. Which doesn't make any sense, and this is where censorship would come in and try to band these games from kids. But everyone knows that wouldn't do but so much because the mature audience want this game so it is going to stay in the market, parents could try to fight to get it banned but i'm sure they would lose. So basically what I am trying to get at is that censorship is a good and bad thing at the same time.
