Project Censored
At Project Censored, we examine the coverage of news and information important to the maintenance of a healthy and functioning democracy.

Such manipulation can take the form of political pressure (from government officials and powerful individuals), economic pressure (from advertisers and funders), and legal pressure (the threat of lawsuits from deep-pocket individuals, corporations, and institutions).
