That is because you never learned that Perot attempted to buy advertising time from all of the major networks, but each and every network denied him the ability to purchase air time to get his message out to the American people without the type of editing that is commonplace.

You've confused the actions of a private company (editing) and the actions of government (censorship),

And if he didn't get his message out, what did he spend his $60 million on?

Censorship can come in several forms, some state sanctioned and some enacted by an entrenched elite.

He spent 60 Mil on his campaign, the NAFTA issue came a year and a half later.
