KPFA - Project Censored

The Project Censored Show is a weekly public affairs program that airs Fridays from 1-2 P.M. Pacific time on KPFA Pacifica Radio.

The program focuses on The News That Didn’t Make the News. Each week, co-hosts Mickey Huff and Peter Phillips conduct in depth interviews with their guests and offer hard hitting commentary on the key political, social, and economic issues of the day with an emphasis on critical media literacy. The program began broadcasting in 2010 and is nationally syndicated on over 20 stations.

    Don’t Get Distracted: Bitter Economic Pills and Threats to Free Press Hit Everyone

    In the first part of the program, economist Dr. Richard Wolff joins co-host Eleanor Goldfield to set the record straight on what tariffs really are and how bizarrely hypocritical it is that the famously anti-tax republican party is now the party that wants a lot of taxes — taxes aimed at you and me. Professor Wolff also explains the wrong-headed thinking about immigration: in fact, steady immigration into the U.S. is and has been a sign of a healthy economy, so the fact that the nation can’t and won’t embrace immigration today is actually a big red flag that our economy is weak — as further evidenced by how well the BRICS nations are doing compared to the G7. In the second half, co-host Mickey Huff speaks with journalists Maya Schenwar and Negin Owliaei about how media must NOT back down to Trump’s threats against press freedom. Maya and Negin outline the multi pronged attacks that journalists and media organizations are facing, remarking that none of us alone can surmount these problems but that real active solidarity and community building is key — along with contextualizing our today in the struggles of yesterday and NEVER complying in advance   The post Don’t Get Distracted: Bitter Economic Pills and Threats to Free Press Hit Everyone appeared first on KPFA.

    Lessons from the LA fires / Surveillance of Student Protesters: The Case of Yale

    In the first half of today’s show, co-host Eleanor Goldfield speaks with Leyna Quinn-Davidson, the Fire Network Director for the University of California Agriculture and Natural Resources about the confluence of issues that are quite literally fueling the fires in LA County. Leyna highlights how we have to shift our thinking about not only how fires burn but their historic and vital role in bolstering healthy ecosystems. She also pinpoints some simple actions people in the area can take to protect their homes and, perhaps more important, their communities, since what your neighbor does or doesn’t do in these situations will directly affect you. In the second half, experienced conflict correspondent Theia Chatelle joins the program to talk about suing Yale PD, a frustrating but enlightening process that uncovered a vast and deep web of surveillance and repressive tactics aimed at students engaging in constitutionally protected speech and protest. Theia discusses the frightening levels of coordination between campus police, local and federal law enforcement, Zionist organizations, and even counter-terrorism agencies. She connects this to a larger pattern of repression across U.S. colleges, universities, and towns and cities beyond campus borders, where the panopticon-style surveillance follows anyone and everyone who could be deemed a threat to the status quo.   The post Lessons from the LA fires / Surveillance of Student Protesters: The Case of Yale appeared first on KPFA.

    Pressing Issues for 2025: Trump 2.0, Media Failures, and the Fight for Press Freedom

    This week, we swing into the new year (2025), with Mickey engaging media scholar Nolan Higdon. They discuss the incoming administration, Trump 2.0, the failures of the punditocracy, and what might mean for press freedom in his second term; social media and an end to so-called fact-checking; and why we will continue to need a truly independent press to keep us informed moving forward. Later in the program, media scholar Steve Macek joins the conversation, and it’s Deja Vu all over again as they revisit previously censored news stories around significant current events (including in Gaza) and how the ongoing lack of establishment media coverage around key issues contributes to low information voters and allows myriad injustices to persist at home and around the globe. Nolan Higdon is a lecturer in Education at the University of California Santa Cruz campus, a prolific author on media issues, and a frequent guest on the Project Censored Show. His books include The Anatomy of Fake News; he  also writes on Substack. Steve Macek teaches communications and media studies at North Central College in Illinois. He’s also the co-coordinator of Project Censored’s Campus Affiliates Program.   The post Pressing Issues for 2025: Trump 2.0, Media Failures, and the Fight for Press Freedom appeared first on KPFA.

    Ralph Nader on Social Justice and World Affairs

    We begin 2025 on an optimistic note, with a timeless speech by the legendary political activist and consumer-rights advocate Ralph Nader. Nader outlines some of the most critical problems facing Americans, including exorbitant military spending, out-of-control corporations, and thousands of annual deaths in the workplace, or from lack of health-care coverage. But then he names some individuals who’ve made a difference in recent U.S. history, explains what students can accomplish on campus, and how voters can hold legislators accountable. Nader spoke on March 5, 2018 at Sonoma State University in northern California, as part of the campus’s annual Social Justice Week Lecture Series.   The post Ralph Nader on Social Justice and World Affairs appeared first on KPFA.
