"incites to violence"

According to some, the pictures of Abu Ghaib "incite to violence" and should be censored.

By clearly supporting the invasion of Iraq, Fox News "incited to violence".

When reality "incites to violence" does one censor reality from reporting, and just spread the "gospel", or good news? Apparently so in countries which are under the thumb, or boot, of other countries.

I think to get a picture of Iraq today one could consider Hungary and Czechoslovakia of the '50s, '60s and '70s, where the puppet government had to toe the line drawn by the country with an occupying army.

And newspapers which reported the truth were closed because the truth would "incite to violence".
