or deleting any material found objectionable is used only in specific
contexts. In *this* context, the censoring is usually done by the
right wing nutbags in question. However, in view of the new docudrama
on ABC coming up, the people asking it to be changed, corrected or
disclaimed do not want to censor it; they want to point out that
something that is being presented as documentary is not documented by
the facts.


Demanding that a "docudrama"

actually have some documentation behind it is logical and rational.
