Mr. J. South,

You are entirely correct. He or she who holds the mike, camera or pen
controls the public's image as I have found in the ten years of trying to
get the truth of the TJ-SH out to the public. The same holds true for those
who control "POISON" mikes, cameras and pens. If anyone is interested in
hearing more please advise. Note the earlier post about the Annette
Gordon-Reed book award being proposed......AND she will win....in my
opinion.

Let's be honest, censorship is what is being sought.  What  is the problem 
with admitting that?  
Censor  
1: a person who supervises conduct and  morals: as a: an official who 
examines materials (as  publications or films) for objectionable matter b:
an 
official (as in time of war) who reads  communications (as letters) and
deletes 
material considered sensitive or harmful  ; 

Censorship

1 a: the institution, system, or practice of  _censoring_ 
(http://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/censoring)  
b: the actions or practices of _censors_ 
(http://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/censors)  ; especially :
_censorial_ 
(http://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/censorial)  control  exercised
repressively
