Rethinking the Censorship Issue.
Neuman, Susan B.
English Journal, v75 n5 p46-50 Sep 1986
Reviews the censorship debate in light of three underlying assumptions: (1) reading influences the opinions and beliefs of the reader; (2) the effect of a book, article, or passage is universal, implying there is one correct meaning for a particular work; and (3) the effects of reading are context independent.
