The 2012 documentary film Shadows of Liberty (subtitled, "The Media Monopoly in American Journalism") endeavors to reveal extraordinary truths about how censorship, cover-ups and corporate control affect public perceptions while affecting the lives of those who try to call out the media.
In highly revealing stories, renowned journalists, activists and academics - including Amy Goodman, Dan Rather and Chris Hedges - give insider accounts of a broken media system. The film's narrative describes how controversial news reports are suppressed, people are censored for speaking out, and lives are shattered as the arena for public expression is turned into a private profit zone.
