What do you mean by "banned" exactly?
The sitcom Rosanne was removed from my Apple library purchases after the actress went on a racist tirade. Was it banned by the government? No, but my access to the material was taken away. I think that there is censorship beyond government censorship, especially when competition is limited, as it typically is with art under copyright (as well as payment processors, etc).
- WorldMaker 1y agoApple TV/iTunes shows every season of Roseanne, including the controversial 10th and final season during which she made such racist tirades that led to the spin-off/soft-reboot (The Conners) is on sale today. If you lost previous purchases, that sounds like an account question between you and Apple. Other than your anecdote here I don't see complaints come up in web searches that they removed it from people's libraries.
