Government censorship is almost always unconstitutional.

Explanation:

In the New York Times v. United States, two of the most famous U.S. newspapers, The New York Times and The Washington Post, claimed their right to free press to publish the "Pentagon Papers" (a classified material about the United States activities in Vietnam), while President Richard Nixon's argued that prior restraint of the material was necessary to protect national security.

However, the Supreme Court determined that the publication was not a direct and inevitable threat to what Nixon called "national security", and the newspapers' right to free press was guaranteed under the 1st Amendment. This set the precedent that government censorship is almost always unconstitutional as it violates American's right for expression.
