* Highlighting the year's 25 most important under-reported news
stories, this volume alerts readers to deficiencies in corporate
media and the resurgence of alternative media.
Every year since 1976, Project Censored, our nation's oldest
news-monitoring group, has produced a Top-25 list of underreported
news stories and a book dedicated to the stories that ought to be
top features on the nightly news, but that are missing because of
media bias and self-censorship.
A perennial favorite of booksellers, teachers, and readers
everywhere, "Censored" is one of the strongest lifesigns of our
current collective desire to get the news we citizens need-despite
what Big Media tells us.
Seven Stories Press has been publishing this yearbook since 1994.
The top 25 stories are listed in order of importance and for how
neglected these stories were by major media. Top stories in recent
years have included "Signs of an Emerging Police State," "Fukishima
Nuclear Disaster More Devestating Than Anticipated," "A 'Culture of
Cruelty' Along Mexico-US Border," and "Obama's War on
Whistleblowers." In additional chapters, scholars and journalists
take a critical look at timely issues, such as the US/NATO
military-industrial-media empire.

In 2005, at the age of 20, Andy Lee decided he was going to try to
make it in the harsh and unforgiving world of professional boxing.
Leaving home for the dust and faded glamour of Detroit, over the
next ten years, under the guidance of the legendary Manny Steward,
he set about honing his craft, winning fight after fight, and
slowly ascending the professional ranks. Then, in 2012, his star
ascendant, Lee suffered two devastating blows in quick succession:
defeat in his first world championship bout and the sudden loss of
Steward, his guide and confidant. Bereft, his career in jeopardy,
the path to redemption would test every hard-won lesson of the
previous decade. 'Not so much a memoir as a lyrical treatise on the
great themes: defeat, death, persistence, redemption, and the
importance of friendship and family' Sunday Times
