whilst its quite obvious stories get blocked probably from time to time its also obvious that not every single bad story would be blocked. However its feasible eg. a minister may ring an editor of a newspaper to explain they think if a certian story was pubished it would negatively impact the country so for the sake of national interests it shouldnt be published. eg. to help push certian political agendas.
its not just political either there is harry redknapp football manager who gets on well with the press who probably have lots on him but choose to not publish it to keep that good relationship going, although if he became england manager it would probably all come out if england do badly and they want him sacked.
