I watched th today show today and caught a conversation |
|
between Campbell Brown and a reporter that has been on all week. He is Karl Qunitaqnela he said this am that he was happy to be reporting because the NBC is allowing them to say what they see. In other words the corp media is cutting them a break and letting them go and report what the hell is happening. No censoring.

2. Bush's criminal acts are far too blatant now |

They have to start calling it as they see it or too many will realize how much control The Shrubbery has on our news sources.

4. people are starting to figure out things are censored |

They think they're mitigating the prevalence of that perception/observation with this, but they're actually showing it more with the cockups and the mikes getting cut and so on and so forth when they really do say too much. This registers as a "wild mood swing:" all the "infotainment," the "fair and balanced" debates between two far right wing idealogues neatly restricting the scope of the discussion to a false choice between "eliminationist rhetoric" and "total war," fluffy nonsense about a white girl gone missing in the Caribbean so long ago no one remembers the TV stations ever not running the story nonstop, and the occasional genuine leftie who vanishes from the screen never to return to it again after saying something pointed that's promptly scrubbed from replays and memories after the right-wing talking heads spout a relatively unconvincing unanswerable rebuttal, stacks up to an obvious "mood."
Then suddenly all the graphics change, and various things that look vaguely critical pop up in order to mask the psyops/etc., but nothing of true substance. Then things gently drift back to Aruba and fluff and somewhat toned-down but clearly "conservative." Guests are screened a bit more closely so they're less likely to cause obvious incidents revolving (of course) around going off-script.
It's getting noticed not just by us. And the media themselves are trying to spin their own story. They cut the mike when Jesse Jackson mentions the MSM being part of the problem because that's what they themselves have to cover up: the fact that the news is all fake, all propaganda.
