Occupy the Media!



Orwell would have, also, disapproved of the modern media trend known as "churnalism."

Churnalism is defined as "a form of journalism in which press releases, wire stories, and other forms of pre-packaged material are used to create articles in newspapers and other news media in order to meet increasing pressures of time and cost without undertaking further research or checking."
