Summary: Censored 2001
Comment: Project Censored is an institution dedicated to advocating & protecting First Amendment rights & the freedom of information in the United States. Their annual lists not only news stories ignored or rebuffed by the mainstream media, but also "News Abuse," an annual survey of the most overcovered & least newsworthy stories that took up valuable press time at the expense of real, substantive news * "Censored Deja Vu," previous Censored stories that have since received mainstream media coverage * "Censored Resource Guide," a directory of alternative media & organizations * "Censored Reprints," the top ten stories reprinted in their entirety. Special guest writers for Censored 2001 include Ed Herman on liberals betraying their values in U.S. foreign policy, Michel Chossudovsky on propaganda, & Robin Andersen on the independent media movement.

Summary: missing the mainstream of interests
Comment: I have been picking up these books for the last eight years. It is amazing what the mainstream media considers news and what they miss and ignore as news, thus they are missing the mainstream of interests of the American public or what should be the interests of the public. Instead, the mainstream goes after fluff and disasters news that is inoffensive to the corporate/business interest of this nation and does not reflect reality of public interest. If CENSORED ever published a nation-wide newspaper, along the lines of USA Today, I would subcribe to it, for relevant, news without spin and news with meaning to the mainstream public.

Summary: The importance of alternative news outlets
Comment: This book is more important now than ever. As we sit with our eyes glued to the coverage of the "War" in Afghanistan, it is crucial that we observe the mainstream media with the awareness of how many years they have manipulated, lied, and deceived the American people. We cannot have a true democracy, we cannot make informed choices, we cannot live authentic lives when so much crucial information is kept from us because we don't, for whatever reason, "deserve" to know. Now, more than ever, it's important to realize the importance of alternative news outlets, and the most important part of this book is that it lists them -- all of them -- so you can find them all. Don't limit yourself to the New York Times, the Washington Post, USA Today, The Enquirer, and ABC, NBC, CBS and CNN. There's a whole world out there that so far has not entirely been kept from us -- but you have to work to access it. It's well worth the effort, and the rest of us out here digging stuff up could really use your help! Welcome aboard!
