Next Monday in New York City, Project Censored will be giving out its awards for the Top 25 Censored Stories of 1998. These are investigative stories you will not find in your morning newspapers or your evening news. The stories range from nuclear accidents to secret multinational surveillance operations, to environmental disasters caused by the U.S. Army and so on. The mainstream press will not talk to the authors of the most censored stories of 1998, but we will.
