“I keep pointing out that they are siding with the King George position and not the founder’s position.”

Brits managed to see that in, oh, 1861 and figure it’s just the colonials admitting that the Crown was correct all along. It still runs into stiff opposition over here were the prevailing opinion is that it’s not secession if we call it Revolution.

Controlling the narrative and usage of words to describe the conflict was part of their strategy to shift the focus off themselves and on to others.

Since they controlled the publishing, they got away with it.

There is a reason why New York is so pivotal in the broadcasting industry. Broadcasting is a tool to influence government policy, and the broadcasters always influence that policy to keep getting more of Washington DC money to flow through their hands.

Same now as in 1860.
