Censorship is defined as 'the adulteration, the suppression or prohibition of speech or writing that is deemed subversive of the common good'--so deemed by those who profit from the suppression or prohibition of free speech... Censorship threatens freedom at its very core. Are some media in America hurtling down the rabbit hole of evasion, stonewalling, and conscious self-censorship? If so, who will speak for those who cannot speak freely?About the AuthorBorn in Paris, W. E. Gutman is a retired journalist and published author. The former international editor of the late-great futurist magazine, OMNI, he was appointed U.S. editor of Science in the USSR, the official publication of the Moscow-based Soviet Academy of Sciences. He co-founded a now-defunct military intelligence journal surveilling the proliferation of nuclear, biological, and chemical weapons. He served briefly as a press attaché at Israel’s Consulate General in New York and later reported from Central America from 1994 to 2006. The author of 19 books, he paints in his spare time.

He grieves at the futility of 'communism' while shining an unforgiving light on the vampirism of capitalism, the resurgence of f...
