Press Censorship in Wartime Ep. 214

from Vital Dissent with Patrick MacFarlane

With the risk of kinetic war between the US and Russia becoming more and more likely each day, the United States is already marshalling its forces to silence domestic and international dissent to the conflict. In this episode, I examine this weekend's cancellation of Consortium News, Mintpress News, and Geopolitics and Empire from PayPal and place them in the historical context of wartime censorship in the United States.
