Critical Focus
The first installment of the Critical Focus series was held at SCAT on Dec. 14th and the topic was Media and War. The series is co-produced with CCTV located near Art Interactive in Central Square. I was in the audience and enjoyed the opportunity to be part of an important critique of the news media in different contexts.
Critical Focus
My question was on the under-reported stories, aka censored, (Project Censored)
such as torture and numbers of civilian deaths, the flag-draped coffins, depleted uranium ammo and armor (some of the best reporting on this came from Rolling Stone magazine) and the abduction of reporter Hayatullah Khan, a reporter sans frontier.
The group recently reported on the events held one year after his disappearance.
