Regular readers of Collide-a-Scape know that I’m interested in popular narratives that shape public discourse.

Is Journalistic Self-Censorship a Big Problem?

The London Based SciDevNet, which is “committed to putting science at the heart of global development,” has an interesting post up today entitled, “Is science journalism ignoring censorship?” The questions raised by the author, Nick Ishmael Perkins, are first discussed in the context of traditional censorship issues, such as when governments restrict access to information.
