Blockbuster boss John Antioco has announced that videos and DVD's with terrorist themes will be sign posted for wary customers.
It's not clear how the system will work but Antioco insisted that it would not pull titles from stores, "We know that there is heightened sensitivity to terrorist themes right now. On the other hand, we do not want to pull product from our stores. We see that as playing right into the hands of the people who would like to curtail our freedoms in this country."
There was actually a sharp rise in terrorist style movies in the wake of the attack - particularly Under Siege and Patriot Games - in the US cities attacked. Video and DVD sales soared in general as the public sought refuge from constant news coverage.
