I am an art critic of technologies, a fan worried about the propagandistic
and sudden nature of the new technologies. When machines begin to be idolized,
social catastrophe is never far behind.

The "new media" have quickened the cycles of interaction. The
twenty-four-hour news cycle is now a twenty-two minute one and, as a result,
we move from an inititial report to discussion of impeachment within a
working day or two.

Today's journalistic fairness in the United States is a blend
of high hopes, historic traditions, contemporary
political culture and the expediencies journalists face in keeping
audiences, owners and sources at bay. It is a shifting set of principles
and practices that will be tested and reformulated by a changing informational
environment whose shape will not hold still.

We work to invigorate the First Amendment by advocating for greater
diversity in the press and by scrutinizing media practices that marginalize
public interest, minority and dissenting viewpoints. As an anti-censorship
organization, we expose important news stories that are neglected and defend
working journalists when they are muzzled.
