Ralph Nader’s “Extra! Extra! All the News the Media Won’t Print” examines what he describes as major stories neglected or underreported by mainstream media outlets. The article discusses government waste linked to the Musk-Trump DOGE initiative, the silence around a proposed New York stock transaction tax rebate reform, disputed estimates of deaths in Gaza, the lack of scrutiny of Donald Trump’s record of alleged sexual abuse, and the absence of organized opposition from former U.S. presidents. Nader argues that corporate media, political caution, and institutional inertia have weakened investigative journalism and limited public accountability on issues with major social and political consequences.
Israel’s continuing assault on Gaza, blockade of humanitarian aid, and treatment of Palestinian civilians have intensified global calls for accountability. Drawing parallels with the international campaign against apartheid South Africa, this article argues that governments, institutions, and civil society must consider coordinated political, economic, and cultural boycotts of Israel. It highlights growing criticism from world leaders, activists, academics, and artists, while condemning the detention of nonviolent activists from the Global Sumud Flotilla. The article also calls for renewed international efforts toward a just resolution of the Palestine question based on human rights, international law, and recognition of Palestinian statehood.

Brazilian President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva on Tuesday condemned Israel’s twice-extended detention of two Global Sumud Flotilla members abducted last week off the coast of Greece while attempting to break the decadeslong Israeli blockade of Gaza and deliver humanitarian aid to its people amid an ongoing genocide.
Spanish Prime Minister Pedro Sánchez asked the European Commission on Wednesday to block compliance with US sanctions against the International Criminal Court over its arrest warrants against Israeli leaders accused of war crimes and crimes against humanity in Gaza.
An assault on Cuba needs excuses for hating it. But given that any exchanges between the US and Cuba has been blocked out of the news for decades, it’s a bit difficult for a lot of folks to figure out why they are supposed to hate it and starve the people there. Let’s look through the eyes of those who promote an attack to find the real reasons.
