CIS (Counter Information Services) was a collective of anti capitalist journalists that operated in the UK from 1970 - 1984
Its publications were called Anti-Reports.
Anti-Reports:
- scrutinised the wealth of UK's largest companies
- contrasted profits with wages, work conditions and environmental costs
- exposed UK companies in apartheid South Africa
- disclosed the privatisation of the public sector
CIS worked anonymously - and despite its regular publications, its writers and associates maintained very low profiles throughout its fourteen year existence.
