Trivia: The Golden Age ended due to the CCA, which stands for what?
Cel Censorship Agency
Cartoon Cleanup Association
Clean Comics Act
Comics Code Authority
The correct answer is Comics Code Authority
So why is this answer correct? : In
the early 1950s, with Cold War fears amplifying, anti-communist
sentiment reached its fever pitch in the United States and a moral panic
surrounded the popular comic book industry. In consultation with
right-wing politicians, a collection of comic book publishers formed the
Comics Code Authority, which pushed to censor the industry. In order to
get the Code’s stamp of approval, a comic had to comply with rules
like, “Romance stories shall emphasize the sanctity of marriage,” and,
“Although slang and colloquialisms are acceptable, wherever possible,
good grammar shall be employed.” The censorship of the CCA limited the
industry’s creativity and helped end the Golden Age of comic books.
