The Accuracy in Media report has continued to publicize and expose specific examples of Media misreporting, including instances where the Media have completely ignored important stories or reported them in such biased terms that Media consumers received a skewed impression of the issue that bears little resemblance to the facts. Accuracy in Media reports and articles empowers individuals to hold journalists as well as public and private officials accountable, in order to achieve a well informed and free society.
Investigating journalism and publishing news columns that expose misrepresentation of facts also support the organization's primary mission.
in Accuracy in Media's "action alert" section, articles help give the readers the opportunity to take action. This activism program increases awareness and directs individuals on how to petition or protest the inaccuracies found in the Media.
Conferences, conventions and video productions that are in accordance with supporting the organization's mission.
