True, although it doesn’t take very much to fool the average American. Most Americans, unilingual, not well-travelled and with no historic sense, have no idea what is really going on in the world or what has been done supposedly in their name. Look how the Bushling was able to so easily sell Americans on the ludicrous idea they were attacked on September 11th “because they were free”.

The media always followed the party line in this country. There hasn’t been much of competitive media for at least 70 years.

Right on! Mussolini said it best and he should have known.

“Fascism should more appropriately be called Corporatism because it is a merger of state and corporate power”

Peace!

“The corporatization of American media”? Let’s just call it what it really is… FASCISM!

“Honest journalism” is an oxymoron. The mainstream media has no credibility. None. They actually have negative credibility. Listen to what they have to say, then believe the opposite.

Caught Morning Joe today. They were all there. To listen to them is surreal. They actually discussed Cheney’s claim that water boarding worked. Well, that is like saying my house was being foreclosed so I robbed a bank. But, hey, I was able to save my house. What is the difference in logic? Both acts are, and were, illegal!

And call me crazy, but if 9-11 changed everything, how about an investigation? Really, I don’t know what happened that day, but the conspiracy theory offered by the government can’t be true. If so, what ever happened to NORAD that day? They never got off the ground. That’s just for openers. Even though there was no investigation, the bushies started a war and gutted the BoR and the Constitution. And the congress did what it does best — run to the corner and hide, and hope they can get reelected. That, in itself, is a joke. Of 435 house seats in the last “election”, less than 9% were considered competitive.

But the MSM wants to “move forward”. Folks, with conventional wisdom like this, it’s all downhill from here.

The media was a very willing participant ,and it was the one who sold all of the lies to the American public which accepted without question.

I have always maintained that the majority of the politicos and the media knew that the the war on Iraq as well as the torture was a WAR CRIME and was against the US contitution as well.. but they did not care cause they thought nobody had the power to stop them.

Only Ron Paul stood up.. but even he did not introduce impeachment legislation again Bush..

Now Obama is caught trying to cover this whole thing up but it will not go away until Bush and his gang as well as the Palosi and Reid crowd are tried in a court and sentenced for their crimes. As well the media enablers need to get their FCC licences revoked and Obama needs to get investigated by the ICC for his coverups

The corporatization of American media has made it just one more branch of the establishment. It sits there alongside the Republicrats, the military-industrial complex, AIPAC and various other lobbies. Gone are the days of tough, investigative, honest journalism.
