Top 25 Stories Censored in 2002-2003

Project Censored - Home

This site, maintained by Sonoma State University (CA), recognizes stories underreported in the main media. I found my way here through Greg Palast's site which told me he had 2 of the 25 for the latest round of recognition.

The Primary Objective of Project Censored is to explore and publicize the extent of censorship in our society by locating stories about significant issues of which the public should be aware, but is not, for one reason or another. Thereby, the project hopes to stimulate responsible journalists to provide more mass media coverage of those issues and to encourage the general public to demand mass media coverage of those issues or to seek information from other sources.

The Essential Issue raised by the project is the failure of the mass media to provide the people with all the information they need to make informed decisions concerning their own lives and in the voting booth.
