A Challenge is wanting to take a book down based on a group of people or a person. Most challenges are unsuccessful though (Banned & Challenged). There is may reasons why books are challenged but most of the time is to protect children from information that may seem inappropriate to them at the same age.

The fact that things such as extreme violence, and even sex is censored from television and to an extent, in some movies appeal to those who are weak in the stomach, and most of all to parents. Parents will readily accept censorship in the media to protect their children from seeing or hearing unwanted material. This is evident in Brave New World, where books, movies, and even ways of life from before “civilization” are eliminated in society, and kept away from school children.

Censorship happens daily on TV and music for example when a news program shows something “graphic” like a shooting they censor the Graphic Material, to prevent young viewers or people who prefer not to see it. Music shows a great amount by removing or “bleeping” out inappropriate material, and by creating “clean versions.” In the future censorship will hopefully “bleep” out all curse words not just the really bad ones.
