What They're Saying
Critics Review
“This book is evident of Project Censored’s profoundly important work in educating readers on current events and the skills needed to be a critical thinker.“–Publishers Weekly
“Project Censored remains a beacon for raising awareness of meaningful news.”
—James F. Tracy, Associate Professor of Media Studies at Florida Atlantic University, editor of Democratic Communiqué, journal of the Union for Democratic Communications
“In another home run for Project Censored, Censored 2013 shows how the American public has been bamboozled, snookered, and dumbed down by the corporate media. It is chock-full of ‘ah-ah’ moments where we understand just how we’ve been fleeced by banksters, stripped of our civil liberties, and blindly led down a path of never-ending war.“—Medea Benjamin, cofounder of Global Exchange and CODEPINK, and author of Drone Warfare
“For the smart and courageous news manager, this annual report is a virtual road map for the coming year’s news schedule.“—The Village Voice
