Description
Book Synopsis: As the United States grapples with the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, the nation’s living legacy of systemic racism, and partisan threats to the foundations of democracy, the integrity of news and Project Censored’s survey of underreported news stories has never been more important.
This 2022 edition of Project Censored’s State of the Free Press offers a comprehensive survey of the most important but underreported news stories of 2021 and a comparative analysis of the current state of corporate and independent news media, and its effect on democracy.
The establishment media sustains a decrepit post-truth era, as examined the lowlight features: “Junk Food News”-frivolous stories that distract the public from actual news-and-“News Abuse”-important stories covered in ways that undermine public understanding.
The alternative media provokes a burgeoning critical media literacy age, as evaluated in the highlight feature: “Media Democracy in Action”-relevant stories responsibly reported on by independent organizations.
Finally, in an homage to the history of the annual report, the editors reinstate the “Déjà vu News” feature-revisited stories from previous editions. State of the Free Press 2022 endows readers with the critical thinking and media literacy skills required to hold the corporate media to account for distorting or censoring news coverage, and thus, to revitalize our democracy.
State of the Free Press 2022 is a joint production of The Censored Press and Seven Stories Press.
