When News is manufactured

"Now that Operation Green Hunt has begun to knock on the doors of people like myself, imagine what’s happening to activists and political workers who are not well known. To the hundreds who are being jailed, tortured and eliminated. June 26 is the 35th anniversary of the Emergency.

This time censorship is not the only problem. The manufacture of news is an even more serious one."
