The telecom giant Verizon is being accused of censorship for barring an abortion rights group from its network for a text-messaging program. NARAL Pro-Choice America allows wireless users to receive updates by sending a text message to a five-digit number. But Verizon has blocked the number to its users, calling the program “controversial or unsavory.” NARAL president Nancy Keenan said: “No company should be allowed to censor the message we want to send to people who have asked us to send it to them.”
