Host of Mad as Hell in America, Adam Klugman addresses the mainstream media's utter consternation with trying to package the Occupy movement.

"Just listen." Adam suggests to MSM.

Yup.

Best,

1. MSM for the most part IMO is pure garbage, especially if one is used to listening to

RT, AJZ, Thom Hartmann and Current TV.

2. The main stream media has turned me onto these great sites.

3. Thanks IMPs!

This movement really is to big to fail no matter what MSM can concoct.

4. Of course the media should fear OWS. Because they threaten their gravy train.

The mainstream media IS NOT THE PRESS that is referred to in the Constitution. The ''mainstream media'' today is an extension of THE CORPOCRACY.

The mainstream media are propaganda units who serve as a spokes-machine for the OLIGARCHS.

The mainstream media's job has primarily been to moderate the conflict resulting from the fascist-state thefts from the people of the world to make it all seem "normal." To constantly advance the idea "we" can make a silk purse from a sow's ear. That this shit can be "fixed" if we pass this law, or regulate this industry, or adopt just one more policy.

And they've failed miserably at this as well which is why people are in the streets instead of in front of their teevees sucking-in the bullshit lies. But then they would fail in the end, since you can only prop-up a LIE for so long.

If there are any doubter-reporters out there, then I ask you to read-off the name of the corporation listed on your paycheck. The ones who pay you to make them look "fair and balanced." Will they ever report something that made that CORPORATION whose name is written on their paychecks -- look like the pure evil they truly are?

And their answer will undoubtedly be: "not likely."


- End of story.





Why are people still be listening to any of these people? Certainly the more obviously stupid ones, but it applies to the slick-talking faux-populists as well.

Why? Why? Why?

Cognitive disability is why.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dunning%E2%80%93Kruger_effect">The Dunning–Kruger effect is a cognitive bias in which unskilled people make poor decisions and reach erroneous conclusions, but their incompetence denies them the metacognitive ability to recognize their mistakes. The unskilled therefore suffer from illusory superiority, rating their ability as above average, much higher than it actually is, while the highly skilled underrate their own abilities, suffering from illusory inferiority.
