We don’t have a media system in the United States any longer.
What we have is a massive propaganda and political machine, that works in a decidedly coordinated manor to brainwash the people they have convinced to have a grievance against this nation and decent God fearing, nation and fellow man loving citizens.
Rush has been harping on this, and he’s right.
The traditional media no longer exists.
What we hear from their old outlets, is just pure propaganda. It matters not if it is clever lies or blatant lies as long as it moves their agenda.
The sooner folks awaken to this reality, the better.
The media is the deep state.
Why would you think national news reporting in the 1960s, for example, was any better than today? There were only three TV networks, a few more radio networks, and mostly local newspapers that got most of their news from AP/UPI wire services. They all pretty much interpreted the news from the same liberal angle. State and local news was probably better back in the good ol’ days since a city of any size at all would have at least two competing daily newspapers looking for a scoop.
The LEFT MEDIA CARTEL
No, we don't. What we have is a little darker than a mere propaganda organ, though; what we have is an active espionage organization hiding under the protection of the First Amendment that has designs inimical to the United States and isn't in the least reluctant to admit it. The information they collect is the currency of power.
What concerns me more than bribing public officials with money, favors, and sex, is gathering information that is used with a specific political end in mind under a broad ideology whose intention is the fundamental "transformation" of its host society, by hook or crook and Lord knows both are involved. The influence of the media isn't new, and neither is its use in pursuit of the owners' political ends; what is new is the overarching ideology that is malignantly internationalist and anti-freedom across nearly the entire media spectrum. These have morphed from hard-bitten reporters who know their beat to a protected, privileged class immune from the consequences of the mess they're making. Until, of course, they're not.
