  Censored Eleven
The Censored Eleven is a group of Looney Tunes and Merrie Melodies cartoons that were withheld from syndication by United Artists in 1968.
However, in the Censored Eleven, racist themes are so essential to the cartoons that the copyright holders believe that no amount of selective editing can ever make them acceptable for distribution.
Despite the efforts of UA, Turner, and AOL Time Warner, however, many of the Censored Eleven are available on bootleg or public domain video.

 Censorship - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The reporting of military atrocities in history is extremely controversial, as in the case of Nanjing Massacre, the Holocaust (or Holocaust denial), and the Winter Soldier Investigation, regarding the Vietnam War.
The legitimate argument for censoring the type of information disseminated is based on the inappropriateness of such material for certain younger age groups.
In Rome, the censor had two duties, to count the citizens and to supervise their morals.

Hats and caps were removed throughout the crowds of mourners, sometimes awkwardly, with an almost embarrassed air, as the cortege passed, and Allen Summervale, Duke of Cromarty and Prime Minister of the Star Kingdom of Manticore, stood beside Queen Elizabeth III on the steps of the Royal Cathedral and watched the slow-moving column approach.
Only eleven people from outside the royal house had ever been "interred" there, and of that eleven, three of the crypts were empty.
Eleven UFI staffers had been arrested for "espionage against the People," deported, and permanently barred from ever again entering Havenite space, and all of their reporters had been expelled from the core worlds of the Republic.

 The Truth Seeker - War Journalists Should Not Be Cosying Up To The Military
Already American journalists are fighting like tigers to join "the pool", to be "embedded" in the US military so that they can see the war at first hand — and, of course, be censored.
Eleven years ago, they turned up at Dhahran in Saudi Arabia, already kitted out with helmets, gas capes, chocolate rations and eyes that narrowed when they looked into the sun, just like General Montgomery.
Half the reporters wanted to wear military costume and one young television man from the American mid-west turned up, I recall well, with a pair of camouflaged boots.

It is notorious for being one of the Censored Eleven: one of several Warner Bros. cartoons produced at the height of the Golden Age of Hollywood animation based on politically incorrect racial humor.
The racial overtones of the cartoon led to its being banned, and it has rarely been shown on television in the years since its release.
(see Censored Eleven) Nevertheless, Coal Black and De Sebben Dwarfs is often praised and defended by film scholars and animation historians.

There are, however, a number of cartoons that have yet to see the light of day in any sanctioned videotape or laserdisc release, and are unlikely to come to DVD either.
These shorts constitute the infamous “Censored 11”, one cartoon short of a dozen of the most un-PC cartoons in the Warner Brothers vault.
As I pointed out earlier, the Censored Eleven all feature fl stereotypes that are today considered to be un-PC or out-and-out racist, while the wartime cartoons featuring buck-toothed Japanese and fascist Germans were allowed to continue running on television in syndication packages, as well as being made available on home video.

Finger Eleven does not show any signs that they will cease producing albums and I feel that this new road they are on will lead them to the success that they are after.
Finger Eleven are one of those bands that has been under the radar for years.
Hopefully Finger Eleven aren't dropped by their label like other bands that aren't instantly platinum sellers, but have been mainstays at their labels (the recent Cold/Geffen Records departure comes to mind).

 Eleven Minutes, Paulo Coelho - HarperAcademic   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-06)
The title of Eleven Minutes is inspired by Irving Wallace's novel The Seven Minutes, published in the 70s.
Wallace's bestseller deals with a long-running legal battle over the banning of a book that takes a close look at sex: in particular the seven-minute duration of the average sexual encounter.
While Coelho abandoned his original idea, The Seven Minutes remains the inspiration for the title (modified to Eleven Minutes because Coelho found Wallace's original estimate too conservative) and the subject matter: an attempt to talk about the association and dissociation of bodily pleasures in relation to those of the heart.

The first and most important of these cases took place in 1952, when Roberto Rossellini’s “The Miracle” was initially banned by New York censors as “sacrilegious”.

 GAC Forums - Will banned cartoons ever be released?
Is it possible that someday there will be a special release of these banned and censored cartoons by Warner or will we have to just hope for something that might not ever happen cause the big owners are too afraid that they will get sued.
A lot of retailers wouldn't be willing to carry something like that and the fact that it would be labeled as "banned" (or something to that effect) while using cartoon characters that are usually considered child-friendly could create quite a controversy.
DVD is in an odd position because it's halfway between collectors' medium and mass medium, and the Golden Collections are aimed both at animation buffs and kids n' moms.I would say that DVD is firmly in the "mass medium" category.

 seangaffney: 1934 WB cartoons plus an explanation of rights
Nickelodeon censored the hell out of them, of course, and this is why my print of Buddy's Circus is only 4:30.
Thus a generation that grew up with syndicated cartoons is sick of the early stuff, and one that grew up with Bugs and the Road Runner on ABC and CBS is sick of the late stuff.
Anyway, this lengthy and boring intro brings me to the first half of 1934, featuring at least three cartoons that should be in the Censored 11 but aren't.

Shunning all offers of protective clothing mandatory for all UN personnel approaching within 500 yards of a suspected "chemical" or "biological" site, they tore at the boxes and 122-mm rockets with their bare hands, and then stuck their nostrils right into the orifices of the warheads.
What the inspectors had actually stumbled upon were eleven ancient 122-mm artillery rockets, fired by the most common multiple rocket launcher in the Middle East - the 40-launch-tube BM-21 "Katyusha", which was first designed by the Russians in the 1940s.
During the Iran-Iraq war, both sides fired tens of thousands of these rockets and it stands to reason that hundred of them will be lying forgotten in various bunkers around the country.
