Summary:
Project Censored identifies and researches news stories which it believes have been underreported, mis-reported, or censored in the mainstream media. With this research, the group aims to advocate the protection of the First Amendment rights granted by the United States Constitution and freedom of information within the United States of America. Unfortunately, on some reports, this group diminishes its credibillty with flagrant bias in both sources selected and commentary.
