Kenny, take a look at the history of American censorship during World War I and the Espionage Act of 1917. American censorship began with the Peter Zenger trial in the late 1700s and don't forget the Alien and Sedition Act of the 1790s.

In more recent times, in the 1950s there was the McCarran Act. World War II saw censorship of lots of books and articles by the Office of Censorship.
