Independent journalist Kevin Gosztola of Shadowproof.com returns to the program to deliver another update about the Julian Assange extradition case in the UK, and its disturbing implications for press freedom. Then we hear a rebroadcast of an interview from earlier this year with Project Censored’s Andy Lee Roth where he spoke about the New Gatekeepers in our media systems. Roth shows how algorithms are replacing human editors in deciding which news stories appear, and which are excluded, on the platforms of Big Tech companies such as Google and Facebook, constituting a more recent and insidiously pervasive form of media censorship.
