    „Street Fighting Man“ od The Rolling Stones byla po násilnostech během Demokratického národního sjezdu zakázána několika rozhlasovými stanicemi v Chicagu a dalších městech, protože se obávaly, že její texty mohou vyvolat další nepokoje. Místní úřady se obávaly, že její revoluční text by mohl podněcovat veřejné nepokoje nebo další násilí. Mick Jagger a Keith Richards se podle jednoho ze zdrojů cenzurou příliš neznepokojovali; Jagger žertoval, že cenzura již dříve pomohla jedné z nahrávek skupiny prodat milion kopií.
