Answer 1

Answer: c. The press can be censured from sharing details of troop movements and tactics during a war

Step-by-step explanation:

Censorship occurs when a particular news or article is considered to be inconvenient, harmful or wrong to the government and hence banned from being published or removed.

In this case, the press can be censured from sharing details of troop movements and tactics during a war. This may actually lead to the particular nation losing the war and hence the government may censure such.
