Pac-O-Lies, vol. 1, no. 1

Underground Press

Pac-O-Lies was published by the New York Media Project, which was dedicated to a critical perspective on mainstream, corporate media during the 1960s-era. Among the group's core goals were: to end "the lie of objectivity" in the media; eliminate all forms of censorship; give greater coverage to issues related to "black and female liberation"; work toward "worker control" of all media; and "eliminate all forces that use the mass media as a means of coercion and repression." This initial issue of the publication lays out the organization's overall critique of mass media and covers a range of topics, including media coverage of the Black Panther Party, Women's Liberation and the War in Vietnam.
