Project Censored!
The Bay Guardian's Camille T. Taiara compiles and digests the top 10 censored or underreported stories from this year's Project Censored! The neocons' plan for global domination tops the list of big stories the mainstream news media downplayed or ignored in 2002. "The neoconservative blueprint for U.S. military domination is hardly a secret. A group called the Project for a New American Century -- a think tank founded by hawks who now hold prominent jobs in the White House -- released a version of it three years ago. The document is shocking in its candor: it asserts that the United States should be moving unilaterally to assert military control around the globe and that all that’s necessary to jump-start the effort is a 'new Pearl Harbor,'” Taiara writes.
