Summary: Amazing!
Comment: The mainstream press controls what you see on the evening news and for most people that may be find, for the rest you need to read this book. What you haven't been told just might surprise you.
From how the United States has undermine the nuclear test ban treaty to tax money use to support death squads and 23 other "missing" stories, you may find yourself outraged and infuriated and maybe a little scared.
Project Censored has certainly done their homework with book; they bring out what we really need to know, not at all like the mainstream media reporting about sex in the oval office.
It would behoove every person to buy this book and begin to read reality for a change. It would also behoove everyone to take a closer look at what is being reported versus what they really need to know.

Summary: Censored 1999 is a beginner's resource to neglected news
Comment: Censored 1999 is a great resource for learning about the atrocities that corporate media overlooks. However, none of the articles present enough information; articles involving the death of millions of people, big money corporate scandals, and other major issues are usually given 2-3 pages. While Censored 1999 provides resources where the reader can get more information on these topics, the book itself has too much breadth and too little depth. This can hardly be blamed on Censored 1999, though; if the media itself did a better job of covering the real issues, then all of 1999's news wouldn't have to be crammed into a single book. Censored 1999 is a necessary index to the real issues, but if you want the full story you'll still have to do most of the research yourself.

Summary: Stunning! Horrific! Read This, Get Mad, and Act!!
Comment: The top-censored stories of 1998 are more nightmarish than usual. The corporate gods whose interests are best served by the underreporting or ignoring of these stories are becoming stronger and stronger. Corporations may soon be able to sue and defeat governments whose citizens are protected by current laws; Monsanto may bankrupt farmers with its one-shot sterile seeds; fluoride may make you sick or kill you; the same company responsible for your breast cancer may sell you drugs to cure it; etc.
Every American citizen should read each year's edition of the Project Censored neglected news. If collectively we do not act, we are doomed.
