Why does US Media hate context ?- Election Fraud becomes Bush won- move on |
|
It is often said that number crunchers often have trouble understanding context
But I swear our media's election coverage issue depth and character analysis - when truthful and not a reprint of a GOP spin/lie PR release - is about as on-point as the famous analysis/review of a production of Richard III by 18th-century maths prodigy Jedediah Buxton - where when asked his opinion after the curtain fell, said that all he could say was that the dances contained 5,202 steps and the actors spoke 12,445 words -
Of course in those more serious times his response was met with a mixture of consternation and disappointment - while today our media reviews its own output as unbiased and nothing to be concerned about.

I bet there will be stories about irregularities in the voting machines - no fraud though.
Have you really looked at the media, at least the people on TV? They are not journalists. They are readers for their bosses.

Our media is complicit, and plays the key propoganda role for the evil-doers who have taken over this country. Has been for years.
Just ashamed that it's taken me so long to figure it out. (Used to watch Sunday morning news shows and think I was getting information I could use.)

It is that simple. The ones have the money are not holding back and are using it to grab lots of power as it is acceptable in today's society.
