Project Censored is an organization that explores stories that are self-censored by the major new organizations. Sometimes the stories are government censored, but often the stories are censored because the news organizations have huge financial stakes in the stories. For example, the proposed sale of the airwaves to media groups was not covered by the regular media until just before the FCC hearing.
An interesting link is to the ownership of various media groups, both who they own and who owns them. Did you know that General Electric owns not only a major media group, but also has a huge stake in producing the jet engine for a major fighter aircraft? Nothing wrong with that, but kind of an interesting fact when you evaluate your news, don't you think?
Enjoy.
