A collection of articles examining the role of the press inside and outside Haiti in creating and maintaining the country current public image. Censorship and misinformation are discussed as well as journalists' self-censorship for economic or political reasons. Community radio and citizen's journalism are seen as two possibilities for greater transparency and rebuilding trust. This issue also includes pieces on Victor Jara, media reform, and media and social change in Venezuela.
