Magazine censorship in Iran looks familiar, but more strict

ًًThe censorship of ads featuring scantily-clad women is now common across the Gulf.

So, it can’t be a surprise that the more conservative Iran is doing it.

However, a Swedish visitor to Iran blogged about it and it’s being linked to by several blogs. Some of the remarks made by him are interesting:

News stories that show women with bare arms, knees, or cleavage generally just get a blocky white sticker, while fashion ads (like the ones above) get ink jobs that keep the clothes unobscured. Some ink gets more artfully applied than others.

Mixing cultures makes everyone nicer!

HUMO1

HUM4

A Belgian magazine, HUMO, is presenting this controversial campaign.

It’s a “culture mash-up” aimed at delivering the message that culture mixing makes everyone nicer. As you can see, these two famous enemies look much nicer, even if it’s quite freaky!

Belgian agency Mortierbrigage created the campaign.
