Not to mention the Internet, especially the Blogosphere. ;-)

I also watch news on Telefutura, Telemundo, and Univision (during my 
sporadic attempts to learn Spanish) -- and I must admit that I think it's 
true that they make CNN and Fox looks somewhat one-sided (US-centered).

However, IMHO that is an issue of supply/demand, and has nothing to do with 
censorship.

WOT: I also noticed that US news agencies prefer an "objective" style -- "we 
report, you decide (SM)". Russian reporters, on the other hand, almost 
always inject their opinion into the story.

There's a book (ISBN: 1402200455) whose authors claim that the French also 
prefer "subjective" style, and are even suspicious of the American style of 
reporting.
