The Controlled Media Uncensored

Ever wonder why some stories and fly and some stories die? Is there a conspiracy to control the media? Who knows! What we do know is that Project Censored has just released "The Most Censored Stories of 2003-4" list and it's a doozie. Since 1976 Sonoma University has sponsored this project to highlight important and yet the most under reported stories of our times. Their annual list of 25 articles is an amazing feat of collaboration, research, and fact checking. So, if you feel like you have been missing something in the press, here is the resource extraordinaire for your literary enjoyment (be sure to check out the past year's lists too). Bon appetit!
