was / used to be targeted by the Department of Censorship


Explanation:
Ao meu ver, o texto se refere à censura imposta pelo Departamento de Censura. Como há uma discrepância de tempos verbais (i.e. pretérito perfeito no termo em questão e pretérito imperfeito na explicação), coloco as duas possibilidades. Se for pretérito imperfeito ("era"), sugiro traduzir como "used to be targeted". Se for pretérito perfeito ("foi"), "was targeted" seria a forma recomendada.

Pressupondo que se trata da ditadura militar (ou melhor, cívico-militar) no Brasil:
"A Divisão de Censura de Diversões Públicas (DCDP) foi o órgão de censura oficial na ditadura militar brasileira, entre 1972 e 1988. Estava subordinada ao Departamento de Polícia Federal do Ministério da Justiça. Sua principal função era aprovar e recusar, a partir de laudos, conteúdos midiáticos e outros materiais.[1][2] O arquivo da DCDP está sob a guarda do Arquivo Nacional." - https://pt.wikipedia.org/wiki/Divisão_de_Censura_de_Diversõe...

censored


Explanation:
No context, so here are my own:

Sob a qual os dois filmes estavam não apenas proibidos, como a imprensa portuguesa não podia nem mencioná-los, muito menos dizer que estavam censurados e que havia censura no país. A asfixia era completa. Curiosamente, todas as publicações tinham de exibir um quadrinho no rodapé, onde se lia "Visado pela Censura".
...
Mas o "República" já trazia manchetes sobre a revolução e, no pé da primeira página, o quadrinho: "Este jornal NÃO FOI visado pela Censura".
(Quotes as per the original)

Conheça já os destaques da VISÃO desta semana. Veja o VÍDEO com imagens da edição que chega, esta quinta-feira, às bancas e perceba porque razão este número foi "Visado" pela censura.

You could also say 'censored by the censors.'

Hence,

"This edition has been censored by the Censor Commission."

was vetted by the censors


Explanation:
The example phrase is ambiguous, could be visado = targeted, or visado = signed, vetted, cleared. More context would be needed.
