The American Monitor, established in November of 2006, provides regular news updates and articles on a wide variety of social, political and environmental issues. Collecting information from newspapers, blogs, websites and watch groups, this site monitors what the American media prints, misses and omits.
From government secrecy, to corporate and political corruption, to the war against terrorism and its erosion of civil liberties, to energy security, to climate change, to election fraud, to the unconstitutional blending of religion and politics...the American Monitor is dedicated to highlighting important stories commonly ignored by the cable news networks, buried in the back pages of your daily newspaper, and in some cases, totally absent from the mainstream media.
Patrick Devlin Buckley is the sole writer, editor and webmaster of American Monitor. He is a freelance journalist and web designer residing in New York's Capital District.
