In another one of my classes I am writing a paper on
media censorship and
education. I would love to hear some of your perspective, as I think it fits in well with the topic of free speech and responsibility as well. What do you think is a parent's role? How about the government's role? And what responsibility does the media itself have? Is this even something we should be worried about?
Here is a
video to help your thoughts on this get going...
Thanks for your input!

I think media censorship is an important issue. It fits into the concept of free speech because censorship is almost the polar opposite. Almost, but not quite. A good place to look for "the government's role" is the book "Fahrenheit 451." This is a fictional story, but it's scary and almost disgusting how closely Ray Bradbury's made-up world parallels some of the actions that have been taken today. Censorship is not only silencing books, but it is silencing growth and curiosity.
