Thanks largely to the success of the Swiss petition drive for basic income, there has been an enormous increase in media attention to the issue of basic income around the world in the last few months. Major media outlets across Europe, in the United States, and father afield have been talking about the idea. The attention has been exiting and literally overwhelming. The coverage of Basic Income News and its accompanying NewsFlashes has increased, but it cannot be comprehensive. We will keep readers up-to-date as much as we possibly can on the most important issues related to BIG in the world's media. The publications section below now reports only on some of the more significant articles on basic income in the World's media. The USBIG NewsFlash focuses more on news and publications from the United States and North America, with coverage of the more important stories from around the world. Links to even more articles can be found on Basic Income News (BInews.org).
