Australia Censors Books and Films

BBC - Australia censors terrorism books

Books and films deemed to glorify terrorism will be removed from shelves and barred from entering the country.

Present laws restrict the publication or dissemination of materials which promote, incite or instruct people to carry out terrorist acts.

The amended law would mark a significant extension of censorship powers, outlawing books and films deemed to speak out in favour of terrorist violence.
