'censured' is the definition.
The definition and answer can be both to do with communicating as well as being past participle verbs.
Maybe they are linked in a way I don't understand?

'commercial gross hedonism' is the wordplay.
'commercial' becomes 'ad' (abbreviation for advertisement).
'gross' is an anagram indicator.
'hedonism' anagrammed gives 'monished'.
'ad'+'monished'='ADMONISHED'
