What do you think of this article, which I'm excepting briefly below? Do you think what it describes is censorship (or, if not technical so, is close enough to pose the same ugly dangers)?
    Washington has no shortage of bullies, but even we can't quite believe an October 27 letter that Senators Jay Rockefeller and Olympia Snowe sent to ExxonMobil CEO Rex Tillerson. Its message: Start toeing the Senators' line on climate change, or else. Its essential point is that the two Senators believe global warming is a fact, and therefore all debate about the issue must stop and ExxonMobil should "end its dangerous support of the [global warming] 'deniers.' "

Or else the US Senators will stop flying around in polluting kerosene-powered aircraft and start flying pigs instead.
