On the media... there is a silver lining |
|
as we have a non event in Wisconsin (ask CNN, scary Fox was covering it by the way, we caught the tail of it)... more people are now realizing why the US Media is corporate controlled.
Now let me be clear... a nuclear meltdown is not a minor story ok. In fact, it is a MAJOR story and makes this now a global catastrophe... but... there was a time ou media could chew gum and walk at the same time, and cover MORE than one story.
This NON coverage is to make the WI demonstrations a non event... this is on purpose.
Now we have a meltdown... even if the Ambassador right now is down playing this.

1. Did Fox have their camera crew concealed in the palm trees? |

I hear that's where most of the real violence was between the cops & the union thugs, over in the grove of palm trees right next to the capital.

2. We caught the tail end |
|
but when fox goes there, and CNN has studiously avoided it.
By the way. Japan is getting scary for other reasons... but hey that is another story.

4. Don't forget..the time when the media could cover more than |
|
one story at a time was when the news was only 1 hour a day from 5-6 o'clock then repeated at 10-11 in the evening.

5. To be fair, I have criticized Fox a lot recently. They did fair |
|
coverage and gave the Wisconsin more than a blip.
Thank you Fox.

7. Fox also posted a very pro union editorial |
|
which tells me there is more to this, but...
When fox does that while the other two studiously avoid it...
