Exile on main street: Newspeak in the 21st Century

Now here's a queer thing.

A remarkable new book which...

a) contains explosive personal exchanges involving some of the most glittering names in the UK press pantheon (Jon Snow, George Monbiot and Guardian Editor Alan Rusbridger to name but three);

b) reveals startling evidence concerning major war crimes and impending climate catastrophe; and

c) of which John Pilger writes: "Not since Orwell and Chomsky has perceived reality been so skilfully revealed in the cause of truth."

...has to date not been reviewed or mentioned in any mainstream UK newspaper.

Nothing. Nada. Zip.

In fact, David Cromwell and David Edwards' Newspeak in the 21st Century has received an even lower profile reception than Guardians of Power: the Myth of the Liberal Media, the duo's previous work, published in 2005.

And the reason?

Quite simply, the book, like its predecessor, is a brick-by-brick dismantling of the sham that is our "free press", eloquently exposing the BBC and other media behemoths as willing collaborators in western aggression, imperialist genocide and the destruction of our planet.

Sound good?

If you are a rational, truth-seeking human, it should do.

As he says, "this may be the only review you will read..."
