Media Messups

[raisethehammer]

Yea, CBC news just gives you the news. Watching CNN is like a Hollywood production. Scary music with images of Muslims beating each other with sticks and bowing down in unison during prayer. It's hilarious, except so many brain-dead consumers watch it and actually think they are getting a better understanding of the world. No, you're getting what the advertisers and the US government want you to get.
these days it's plain to see government control in a far greater measure at CNN and FOX than CBC.
Some recent news stories that weren't covered by corporate media in Canada or US (you can go research these online yourself) Note: some of these stories were done by CBC :

- Monsanto killing a news story on tainted milk by a local FOX station in Florida
- WMD in Iraq and what the IAEE said repeatedly to the US government about their non-existence (a few weeks ago a quiet news story out of the US stated that, oops, there actually never was any - no shite).
- RCMP corruption
- Health Canada's "smart check" symbol in grocery stores...CBC uncovered the fact that food companies pay off 'smart choice' in order to get them to sign on their label even though much healthier options sit on the same shelves.
- "Wipe Israel off the map" controversy from Iran. The 3 words - "wipe" "Israel" and "map" were never used in that infamous speech....if you watch CNN/FOX that's all you know about that speech. BBC and other large international news agencies have since issued apology stories stating that they simply picked up the story from US media outlets, but should have verified the facts before doing so.

I could go on all night, but won't....the point is, don't be a brain-dead consumer. Learn to think and do a tiny bit of research to find a little more truth out there. I know nobody wants to read through 5,000 page government documents to find out what really happened on 9-11 or anything else, but a bit of quick research at libraries or online with documented, certified sources will help you undestand a lot more about what goes on.

By the way, kudos to CBC for recently taking the feds to task for the corruption that exists and has existed for years in Health Canada and other agencies that are supposedly there for our benefit. I hear Global complaining about the price of gas every night...because people will tune in to hear it over and over.
