The Most Censored Stories of the Year
Each year, Project Censored publishes its annual survey of independent journalism, State of the Free Press, consisting of stories that corporate news media failed to cover or badly misrepresented.

This latest compendium of the top 25 most-censored stories of the year focuses on topics such as climate change, criminal justice, abortion, and more.
