Censorship can produce a 'must see'
Censorship can produce a 'must see'
Banning a book can make it a "must read" for many members of society who would have never read the book had it not been banned. North Korea's reaction to the forthcoming movie "The Interview," and Sony's initial decision to cancel its Christmas Day opening will have the same effect.
Now that Sony has discovered a way that the movie can be released, it will be viewed individually and by smaller groups, ultimately constituting an audience vastly enlarged by the flap.
