Action Against Tindle Newspapers Censorship
Hamsters | 19.04.2003 15:35
The newspaper you are about to read is a direct response to a blatant threat to free speech in our country...
On the eve of the invasion of Iraq, Sir Ray Tindle (owner of over 100 publications) announced that his papers would censor any dissenting views about the invasion of Iraq. In response, this one-off independent paper was produced in Totnes and seeks to provide a forum for the issues currently being censored by the editors of newspapers owned by Sir Ray Tindle.
It fills the gap left by the censorship of the Totnes Times and concentrates on the issues of media control, censorship, patriotism and the activities of the peace movement. It also look at the concerns of those wishing to find a way to support the troops sent to the Gulf.
This project has been funded by donations. Needless to say, it is not cheap producing a paper and any further donations to help us to cover the costs would be most welcome.
The paper (titled the Troubled Times) is available to download here as PDF (just under 1mb)
