News outlets are pretty fixated on the part where Grande had what looked like an unscripted moment during her opening monologue.

One of the best things about Cartoon Network's Steven Universe is that it depicts same-sex romantic relationships as a matter of course. From central characters to crowd scenes featuring a smattering of same-sex parents with their kids, Steven Universe includes LGBTQ+ folks as a part of life. You know, the way they are in real life. Well, Cartoon Network in the UK seems to think that's all a bit too much for their children.

Reports have been flying after Vanity Fair's New Establishment Summit that Instagram co-founder Kevin Systrom revealed in a panel that the company has mulled over creating a separate "R-rated" version for content deemed unsuitable for regular Instagram.

Guess which side the argument of China is on?

Instagram has admitted that they made a mistake when they disabled an account that posted pictures of women with visible pubic hair, but they're still busily trying to figure out the right amount of censorship for women's bodies.

both Agent Carter and Fox drama Empire have both been ordered off the Internet by the State General Administration for Press, Publication, Radio, Film and Television (SARFT), who regulate all media in the country.

The Chinese government is now seeking to ban wordplay of all kinds from broadcast communications, ads, and politics. I guess they're tired of cunning linguists.

Terrible news, UK porn watchers: unless your favorite British-run streaming service can ensure that its kinkier fare "is made available in a manner which secures that persons under the age of 18 will not normally see or hear it," it's about to get censored right off your Internet—and apparently, "female ejaculation" counts.

And it's all thanks to Inside Amy Schumer! Huzzah!

The Gilbert Public Schools Governing Board in Arizona became displeased with a section in a high school biology book that described how an abortion-inducing drug works after complaints from a Christian law organization called Freedom, so they advised school officials to redact it with extreme prejudice.

Start your morning off right—with the folks from CineFix's Film School'd series giving a run-down of the history of film censorship, from the early days (Edison, the scandal!) to today.
