I213 Likewise, in Keeping America Uninformed, author Donna Demac traced the demise of America's free press largely to the FBI and CIA again during this same period in history. Demac wrote: Richard Nixon, for example, for whom journalists were a persistent headache, eventually had intelligence agents wiretapping reporters' telephone lines, opening their mail, and raiding press offices. Such measures were believed to have ended when Nixon left office. [However,]. .. the Reagan administration also authorized the FBI and CIA to search newsrooms and institute a stream of ad hoc restrictions.

20 Years of Censored News Carl Jensen See book keywords and concepts

We have a free press in the United States guaranteed by the First Amendment and we have the best communications technology in world history. Now let us seek a more responsible and responsive press—a press that earns its First Amendment rights the old fashioned way. Indeed, a press not afraid to do a little muckraking. Then, and only then, will we have the information we need to build a more enlightened and responsive society. ACKNOWLEDGMENTS This book would not have been possible if it were not for the investigative efforts of the authors who wrote the top 200 Censored stories.

UPDATE: The continuing influence of advertisers on the media is reported by The Cincinnati Enquirer (5/20/96) which states, "Major advertisers are taking an increasingly growing stake in producing shows for TV and in creating much of the material funneled through the Internet computer network.

Countering the amount of free press against nuclear, such as accidents at Three-Mile Island and Chernobyl, hazardous leaks and various other plant problems, along with science fiction movies, would literally cost tens of millions of dollars in terms of column inches and air time in Nevada alone.

But schoolbooks often fail to mention that Woodward and Bernstein were virtually alone in their dogged pursuit of the Watergate scandal, which occurred in the midst of a presidential election yet had absolutely no impact on the election outcome.
