Censored 2018

" Censored should be affixed to the bulletin boards in every newsroom in America. And, perhaps, read aloud to a few publishers and television executives."-RALPH NADERThe annual yearbook from Project Censored features the year's most underreported news stories, striving to unmask censorship, self-censorship, and propaganda in corporate-controlled media outlets. Featuring the top 25 most underreported stories, as voted by scholars, journalists, and activists across the country and around the world, as well as chapters exploring timely issues from the previous year with more in-depth analysis.Story Locale- N/ASeries Overview- Every year since 1976, Project Censored, our nation's oldest news-monitoring group, has produced a Top 25 list of underreported new stories and a book, Censored, dedicated to the stories that ought to be top features on the nightly news, but that are missing because of media bias and self-censorship. A perennial favorite of booksellers, teachers, and readers everywhere, Censored is one of the strongest lifesigns of our current collective desire to get the news we citizens need-despite what Big Media tells us. Seven Stories Press has been publishing this yearbook since 1994.

“[Censored] should be affixed to the bulletin boards in every newsroom in America. And, perhaps, read aloud to a few publishers and television executives.” –Ralph Nader

“Whereas the mainstream media poke and peck at noteworthy events at single points in time, often devoid of historical context or analysis, Project Censored seeks to clarify understanding of real world issues and focus on what's important. Context is key, and many of its 'top censored' stories highlight deeply entrenched policy issues that require more explanation than a simple sound bite can provide.” –San Francisco Bay Guardian
