American journalist and author Patrick Lawrence talks to Patrik Baab about the state of Western journalism – between self-censorship, imperial ideology and loss of authenticity.

Lawrence, who has written for the New York Times, the International Herald Tribune, The Nation, Consortium News and Counterpunch, among others, describes the psychological process that makes mainstream journalists dependent:
They adopt the mindset of their editorial office – and lose their own judgement in the process.

„The function of journalists is no longer to inform the public. Their function is to keep them in the dark.2 – Patrick Lawrence

A conversation about truth, self-censorship, 9/11, imperial power and the future of independent media.
