Media Lens
| A site dedicated to exposing and illustrating western corporate media as closely following a 'Propaganda Model' that thoroughly vitiates its claims to being objective, impartial and 'free' |
Started: 2001
Owners: David Cromwell, David Edwards
In its own words:
"Media Lens is a response based on our conviction that mainstream newspapers and broadcasters provide a profoundly distorted picture of our world. We are convinced that the increasingly centralised, corporate nature of the media means that it acts as a de facto propaganda system for corporate and other establishment interests. The costs incurred as a result of this propaganda, in terms of human suffering and environmental degradation, are incalculable.
... Our aim is to raise awareness of the systemic failure of the corporate media to report the world honestly and accurately."

Media Lens is a website of note, not least because as of 18 May 2018 "Philip Cross" had made over 50% of the edits to its Wikipedia page, after which time he suddenly stopped.[1]
