Graphic Violence
The depiction of violence in media such as film, television, and video games. It may be real or simulated live action, or animated. It is a highly controversial topic. Many believe that exposure to graphic violence leads to desensitization to violence. It has led to censorship in extreme cases, and regulation in others, one case being the creation of the Entertainment Software Rating Board in 1994. - Graphic Violence - wiki
Film/Television
In theatrical performances, films and television broadcasts are similarly rated using a rating system. It is based on the graphic nature (acts of violence, sexual acts, etc) and language (cursing, sexual suggestions, etc)
News media cover violent and deadly incidents, such as accidents, wars and crimes. This coverage is often preceded with a warning, stating that the information may be disturbing to some viewers. Sometimes graphic images are partially censored, by blurring or blocking a portion of the image, or cutting the violent portions out of an image sequence.
Video Games
Violent content has been a central part of video game controversy. Critics such as Dave Grossman argue that violence in games hardens children to unethical acts, calling first-person shooter games "murder simulators", although no conclusive evidence has supported this belief.
