Each year's Project Censored volume includes a chapter on "junk-food news" -- trivial or scarcely-significant stories
that receive disproportionate coverage on corporate media, thereby crowding out more-significant issues. This week's
Project Censored Show features three of the researchers for the junk-food news chapter of Censored 2019, to examine
the insidious social effects of junk-food news, and to discuss their work and this year's chapter.
Notes:
Izzy Snow and Christina Hamilton are students at College of Marin, and Project Censored researchers / authors.
Susan Rahman teaches social sciences at College of Marin and is the Project Censored faculty contact at that institution.
