The answer

It is not permissible to work in distributing newspapers that contain unlawful content, nor to assist others in using receivers and similar devices if their predominant use is for unlawful purposes. However, if it is highly probable that the purchaser desires the newspaper or channel solely for news, and will not view images of women or listen to music, then it is permissible to provide it to them.
