There is no liberal censorship in the US. The only censorship that is allowed in the US is based on ideas of obscenity, a rather conservative concept. The major battleground seems to be school boards. And besides mentions of anything outside sexless heterosexual marriage, the only issue that will trigger the censor is… anything vaguely mentioned the possibility that Black people might exist.

"Advertiser friendliness" extends from sensibilities of what a liberal audience finds "obscene" and is private, yet far reaching, censorship. JCS Criminal Psychology, an organization which posted FOIA'd police interrogation footage practically in full, being forced off of YouTube is a relatively wellknown non-political example of a victim of such censorship.
