'Censorship' controversy? Sometimes it's just part of the ad campaign
The television networks do not want you to see advertisements for the Dixie Chicks documentary "Shut Up and Sing."
The movie theater chains do not want you to see the fictionalized polemic "Death of a President."
The president of Kazakhstan does not want you to see "Borat."
Just ask the people promoting the movies.
Hollywood appears to have hit upon a fail-safe strategy for getting attention for just about any kind of film: get someone, anyone, to try to suppress it, and then rush to the news media.
And it happens in politics as well and in basically any other kind of advertising or public relations. Everything is based on sensationalism, not truth.
