Censored 2009

Censored 2009 Review

            Censored 2009 is a collection of news stories from 2007- 2008 that range from domestic to international to political affairs that received little to no coverage from mainstream media outlets. The front cover of ‘Censored’ claims that the book is an example of “media democracy in action” and does not fail to deliver. Each story pulls no punches in their quest for truth and sense of duty to inform the public about what is going on in the world and how it affects everybody. The updates on past ‘Censored’ stories is proof of just how determined the authors are about their work. Although the viewpoints of the collective authors could be considered politically one-sided, ‘Censored’ holds a magnifying glass over the stories that could/ should have informed the public about what’s going on in the world when the stories first broke.    Despite the aggressive viewpoints and plethora of acronyms, 'Censored' is full of intriguing stories with both domestic as well as international topics that are political, economic, cultural, and most importantly, relevant.
