Oh, is that what you call it? When your leader fucks up, you don't want to know about it? If something is true, there's no good reason for the press to not report it if it's important information.

If terrorist material weren't censored, it could be argued both that it would be easier for the terrorists to get information safely and to find recruits in the gullible, malleable public. Besides, censorship in North Korea of news bashing its leader really can't be held equal to censoring the words of terrorists.

Yes.  Why should we let our enemies use our media as free advertising and distribution for their communications and public relations purposes?

Both sides are available.  If you want to read about the enemies' point of view, that information is freely available on the Internet.  Al-Jazeera very willingly runs PR pieces made by al-Qaeda.  

This proposition is analogous to saying that we should have ran German-produced agitprop pieces such as "The Triumph of the Will" on American media during World War II.  Most usually in life, one side of the story is the most truthful side.
