Censoring agency research

Censorship of agency research is the suppression of completed scientific work — the blocking of publication, the gagging of agency authors, the directed removal of conclusions from research that has already gone through peer review or internal review. Concrete forms include "pull-back" orders applied to specific journal submissions, the rescission of speaking invitations for agency scientists, and direction to conform agency conclusions to administration policy preferences. The publication tracks documented suppression of work that has already cleared scientific review.
