Media Monitor was a syndicated radio program produced by Accuracy in Media (AIM), a conservative nonprofit organization dedicated to monitoring and critiquing perceived biases in mainstream media. Launched in the 1970s and running through the 1990s, the program aired commentary segments that highlighted what AIM viewed as liberal slants in news reporting, promoting conservative viewpoints and encouraging public awareness of media influence. It featured analysis of current events, interviews with experts, and calls to action against media organizations accused of unfair coverage, serving as a key tool in AIM's mission to foster accountability in journalism during a period of growing conservative media activism. Produced from AIM's base in Washington, D.C., Media Monitor episodes were typically short, focused segments suitable for syndication on local stations across the United States, gaining a dedicated audience among conservative listeners and becoming a staple of right-leaning talk radio. It contributed to the broader network of conservative media criticism that emerged in the late 20th century, influencing public discourse on media reliability and paving the way for later outlets like talk radio hosts and watchdog groups. Although it ceased production in the 1990s, its legacy persists in ongoing debates about media bias from a conservative lens.
