Every year since 1976, Project Censored has produced a Top-25 list of underreported news stories and a book, Censored, dedicated to the stories that ought to be top features on the nightly news, but that are missing because of media bias and self-censorship. Additional chapters find academics and journalists delving further into timely media topics, including a critical look at the US / NATO military-industrial-media empire, as well as the state of media bias and alternative coverage around the world.
