Ignored by the Media

February 22nd, 2007

Project Censored

Project Censored is Sonoma State University’s media watchdog project. More than 200 Sonoma State University faculty, students, and community members scour the media looking for stories that the major media outlets are ignoring. These usually aren’t stories the media has missed; often these stories were purposely ignored by the national media. Each year they come up with a list of the 25 most censored stories and publish a book. Most of the contents of this book are also available for free on their website. Some of this years stories include:

• Future of Internet Debate Ignored by Media
• Halliburton Charged with Selling Nuclear Technologies to Iran
• Cheney’s Halliburton Stock Rose Over 3000 Percent Last Year

Project Censored is a media research group out of Sonoma State University which tracks the news published in independent journals and newsletters. From these, Project Censored compiles an annual list of 25 news stories of social significance that have been overlooked, under-reported or self-censored by the country’s major national news media.
