Censorship in television

Censorship in television refers to the practice of reviewing and controlling content to restrict or modify material deemed inappropriate or sensitive for certain audiences. This can include editing language, scenes, or topics to adhere to legal standards, cultural norms, or broadcasting policies. The goal is to prevent viewers from encountering content that might be offensive, disturbing, or unacceptable, while balancing creative expression with societal values. Censorship varies by country and context, and often involves decision-making by broadcasters, regulators, or government agencies to shape what is publicly shown on TV.
