Wikileaks gives the same donation page via a US IP address - backup tomorrow It says. The whole mirror archive can be had at numerous places - Another reason why the Blacklist will fail - And because of Social Media sites like DIGG.

Another interesting way to look at the changing landscape of the media is the effect Internet Piracy has had.
Media companies couldn't stop the vast amount of Illegal mp3 downloads going on so they try to compete with services like Itunes. Now These same Media companies cannot compete with the huge number of TV and Movie downloads so they have to compete again through services like Hulu and Netflix. It is clear the Masses dictate the terms, not some organisation or corporate entity. |

Happy with your informing media ?
Don't hold your breath waiting to see this important story on tv or in your newspapers , i mean its only about what we will eat ! US, Canadian and Aussie wheat industries unite behind GM Could it be because corporate media covers for corporate agriculture ? Or as KB might say "the journalists can't be bothered" |

Reason #4 is incorrect, there is no government censorship of mainstream media.

Yes, but I'd like to hear what you think it is.

There is minimal if any government censorship of mainstream media.
