   >Following the September 11 attacks in 2001, Clear Channel Communications (now iHeartMedia), the largest owner of radio stations in the United States, circulated an internal memorandum containing a list of songs that program directors felt were "lyrically questionable" to play in the aftermath of the attacks.
   >Martha and the Vandellas' original version of "Dancing in the Street" and Van Halen's cover are included

     @meso It was absolutely insane. Every movie that contained a shot of the Twin Towers was blacklisted, entire movies were delayed to rewrite/reshoot, like Spiderman had put a web between the Twin Towers to catch a helicopter and that was scrapped. MGS2 had the Big Shell crashing into New York and Konami made them move it. I'd never seen anything like the reaction to 9/11.

     @meso The only thing that compares in terms of massive government power-grab and baffling public reaction would be the Rona.

     @p @meso Deus ex came out right before 9/11 and the omitted the towers because of some tech issue so they said it was destroyed in a terror attack.
