→The First Amendment and censorship in the U. S.
Certain language and images that may have been censored in the past are typically common fare in the American media today. On the other hand, while nudity, for example, may be acceptable on mainstream French television, that is much less likely to be accepted in American television and even less acceptable in conservative Muslim countries.

Censorship is NOT solely a liberal trait otherwise there wouldn't be such rancor over including differences of opinion. Censorship is not condemnation of differences of opinions, is it? At the heart of any intellectual, open discussion is DIALOGUE. I'm concerned with a prevalent attitude on Conservapedia that rushes to judgment especially about the liberal point of view. The liberal point of view is NOT the enemy: it's a legitimate perspective (i.e., a large percentage of the population have it) and it deserves a fair hearing. fair presentation of its perspectives/views. Would we not expect the same? I haven't read much on this site but what I have read begins to give the impression that this is not an open forum of DIALOGUE. It's beginning to sound like war: as if one side is all wrong and the other is all correct. Somewhere between the two extremes is the Truth. Better yet...somewhere between the two extremes will be found commonality and perhaps the political polarity will be resolved. --PMurdock 05:01, 14 September 2011 (CST)
