DESCRIPTION:Mickey Huff and Peter Phillips discuss Censored 2011. Each year, as it has 
 for the past quarter century, Project Censored lists its list of the top 
 twenty-five censored stories—the major new stories that were ignored or 
 under-reported by a mainstream press too busy covering the latest junk food 
 news story. Stories are presented in depth, and the original reporters are 
 given the opportunity to provide updates and comments on how their stories 
 came about.\n\nAdditionally, the project commissions articles on the 
 hot-button issues of the year having to do with censorship, alternative 
 media, international news, and other relevant topics.\n\nHere is a list of
