Unfreedom of the Press is not just another book about the press. Levin shows how those entrusted with news reporting today are destroying freedom of the press from within: “not government oppression or suppression,” he writes, but self-censorship, group-think, bias by omission, and passing off opinion, propaganda, pseudo-events, and outright lies as news.

With the depth of historical background for which his books are renowned, Levin takes the reader on a journey through the early American patriot press, which proudly promoted the principles set forth in the Declaration of Independence and the Constitution, followed by the early decades of the Republic during which newspapers around the young country were open and transparent about their fierce allegiance to one political party or the other.

It was only at the start of the Progressive Era and the twentieth century that the supposed “objectivity of the press” first surfaced, leaving us where we are today: with a partisan party-press overwhelmingly aligned with a political ideology but hypocritically engaged in a massive untruth as to its real nature.

Unfreedom of the Press by Mark R. Levin is a thought-provoking book that explores the state of the media and its impact on freedom of the press. In this hardcover edition, Levin delves into the biases and agendas that he believes have compromised the integrity of modern journalism. With his signature style, Levin presents a compelling argument for the need to reclaim a truly free and independent press. Whether you agree or disagree with his viewpoints, Unfreedom of the Press is a must-read for anyone interested in the role of the media in today's society.
