Sobre IBD

W 1952 roku przewodniczący Izby Reprezentantów Sam Rayburn wyznaczył przedstawiciela demokratów z Arkansas, Ezekiela Candlera „Took' Gathingsa, do kierowania wybraną komisją i zbadania potencjalnego wpływu rzekomo obscenicznej literatury na moralność amerykańskiego społeczeństwa. House Select Committee on Current Pornographic Materials, nieformalnie znana jako Gathings Committee, wydała raport większościowy w 1953 roku. Twierdził on, że dystrybucja obscenicznej literatury była wszechobecnym problemem i zalecał rządowi federalnemu cenzurowanie dystrybucji materiałów uznanych za nieodpowiednie. Ostatecznie Izba Reprezentantów odrzuciła zalecenia komisji. Jednak pytania o to, czy literatura może wpływać na moralność społeczną lub czy cenzura jest potrzebna do ochrony norm społecznych, dominowały w kolejnych dziesięcioleciach. Celem niniejszego opracowania jest zbadanie, jak wyborcy postrzegali wysiłki komisji.
