Definitely a great book if you know what you're looking at... It covers tons of stories that SHOULD have been focused on by the main stream, but at the same time it looses it's objectivity by telling the reader the direction the news industry should go. I agree with them on many, if not all of their points, but the liberal slant is so blatant at parts it's borderline propagandha. It's worth reading the censored stories and skipping the preaching.
PLEASE NOTE: CENSORED 2007 IS VERY IMPORTANT AND I RECOMMEND AT THE VERY LEAST THAT YOU GO TO AMAZON AND READ THE REVIEWS WHICH ALSO INCLUDE THE LIST OF IMPORTANT STORIES WE ARE NOT BEING TOLD.

Censored 2008 and all the books that came before it are pretty much Must-reads.

I highly recommend this very important read.

This is a f*cking great book...eerie and wonderful. The web site offers synopses of the stories: http://www.projectcensored.org/ As an independent journalist I have tremendous respect for all of the writers whose stories made it into this compendium.
As another reviewer said: "buy it, read it, act on it". Or borrow it if you can. Events that the media didn't tell you - but should have.
covers various stories that mainstream media either falsely told or just didn't cover.
Why isn't anyone shouting???????????//
