Norman Lear's "liberal" activist group "People for the American Way"
compiles an annual list of most-censored materials; the latest was
released this last week (and reported on in the local (SF Bay Area)
news). Others on the list included _Of Mice and Men_, _Adventures
of Huckleberry Finn_, and _Slaughterhouse 5_. 

They also report that the incidents of school censorship were up this
last year. :(
