Description: All the news that didn't make the news--from two decades of bird-dogging the media! Here are over 200 of the most censored and vital news stories that were largely neglected by the mass media when they were timely, and what has happened to them since. Jensen not only reports on the issues behind the news stories, but he follows the stories behind the stories, analyzing the ways in which corporate capitalism, "herd mentality", and laziness combine to influence and direct levels of media involvement. Illustrations.

Review Quotes: "Project Censored shines a spotlight on news that an informed public must have. . . . A vital contribution to our democratic process." -Rhoda H. Karpatkin, President, Consumer's Union


"[O]n the internet, they call him 'the Ralph Nader of the media, ' and Sonoma State University communications studies professor Carl Jensen certainly earns that accolade. . . ." -Patricia Holt, San Francisco Chronicle
