But there is something quite trivializing about claiming things are censored that are not, in fact, censored.

Corporatia deciding not to report on stories because they are bad for ratings and profits, is not the same as censorship.

Project Censored is more than 35 years old and that is what they call themselves.

Project Censor also calls them stories of 2013 when they really mean ranked and reported in 2013 for 2012 stories.

I am just the messenger but do support Project Censored.
