I suppose you could put my picture on that cover if I told you what I really thought about these warmongers amongst us. Fortunately for me I'm a nobody who doesn't rule one of the most powerful nations on earth.
Propaganda is the oldest profession. The second oldest profession depends on it.
Pravda and Isvestia...the Ruskies showed the way and America followed. The problem is that it is all too sad. The efforts to influence opinion only work if you can get your ideas before the public. The only people who read Newsweek are the same ones who watch CNN and MSNBC. They are not getting through with the propaganda to the youth or to the folks who get their info form elsewhere (and I believe that is almost EVERYONE).
I'm just not all that worried about their feeble efforts.
The government is broke, the people know they are liars and most know something bad is going to hapen and the goverment is responsible.
It is hard to have an effective despotic government when the population is laughing at your pathetic efforts.
When the time comes for the government to 'crack down', they won't be able to pay the stooges. All they will have are .mov of everyone masturbating. I just don't think that will get then very far... sad sad sad ...Goebbles would be disappointed.
Hey, that doesn't look like Netanyahu.
lol
Feels like a flashback to 2003 and the MSM now giving Putin their "Saddam Hussein treatment."
And what's really funny is that Putin DOES have WMD--no need to conjure up fake "evidence."
Lots, and lots of them--On subs, in the ground, on launchers and on planes...
If you have not read Jacques Ellul's _Propaganda_ you are not familiar with propaganda. Ellul's _Propaganda_ is the Bible of propaganda IMHO.
OCCUPY PROPAGANDA - OCCUPY EVERYTHING
I guess it is a good thing I have it.
Delete Key, look into it.
For a change, I will be on topic, LOL
when the socpuppet first arrived, he pushed me to some of my best work. I data mined a gov report which showed that Fukushima increased the radiation in Alaska plants and animals as much as a 1960's direct blast from an atom bombs test.
Wrap your head around that. The proof is here. This is not speculation or conjecture. This is government test data, very extensive.
Caribou love lichens, lichens are a radiation magnifier/bio accumulater.
Nuke Pro brings it home again, soc puppets go home!

From this Newsweek article, notice how similiar Obama is to Putin
9 Things We Just Learned About Vladimir Putin's Life
Newsweek
A new article in Newsweek provides quite a bit of insight into Russian President Vladimir Putin's daily routine and private life.
The writer, Ben Judah, spent three years interviewing those close to Putin for his book "Fragile Empire: How Russia Fell In and Out of Love with Vladimir Putin."
Here's what he learned:
Putin sleeps in. He does "much of Russia's thinking" in a pool. Putin always goes for a swim after breakfast because he likes to get alone time in the water. He wears goggles and swims in a front crawl.
He does a daily "cleanse." He works out after his swim, preferring weights over cardio in the gym, and then immerses himself into both hot and cold baths.
He doesn't like the internet. His offices don't have TVs, and he uses "only the most secure technologies" to communicate, which to Putin means paper and fixed-line, Soviet-era telephones. Putin rarely uses the internet because he "finds the screens within screens and the bars building up with messages confusing."
He's high maintenance. When he leaves Russia, Putin ships in Russian cooks, cleaners, and waitresses for his trip. When he stays in hotels, his team removes their sheets and toiletries and replaces them with Kremlin-approved items under anti-contamination seals. He doesn't eat any foreign food that hasn't been cleared by the Kremlin.
He doesn't like spending time in the Kremlin. Putin lives in a palace outside Moscow because he dislikes the traffic, pollution, and "human congestion" of the city. He doesn't like visiting the Kremlin either and prefers to work at his estate.
His inner circle calls him “Tsar.” They used to call him "Boss."
He doesn't have much of a personal life. Putin's parents are dead, and he and his wife divorced. He has two daughters, but they don't live in Russia. He reportedly has women — models, photographers, and gymnasts — "come to him at night," but these are just rumors. Putin does, however, take comfort in his canine companion, a black Lab.
His life is monotonous, but he fancies himself a hard worker. Putin claims he "works harder than any leader since Stalin."

I go to Daily Koz for my 2 minute outrage.
There you will find various and sundry outrages to suit your needs.
Many readers are so outraged at the many outrages that you can watch their heads explode.
I find this so gratifing that I forget all about the manufactured outrages and come back to ZH for some authentic outrage.
This outrage is leavened with cynical humor so it's not as truly satisfying as the manufactured type which is earnestly humorless.
I feel as if I've lapsed into a vicious cycle of outrage dependency.
+1,000,000 well put
Wow, +1 for free analysis.
That's outrageous.
And probably rayciss.
How come you can't smell raceists rightly

Good find... the "ops" are so easy to spot these days for the man on the street.... Pity the wankers
for the russians its the same war against the fascists they fought last century
yup. july 17th- anniversary of the massacre of the czarist family. hmmm
The horrible thing about the Two Minutes Hate was not that one was obliged to act a part, but that it was impossible to avoid joining in. Within thirty seconds any pretense was always unnecessary.
A celebration of innate human nature.
WB7, was there a Mad Magazine-type fold-over on the backside of the cover? Looks like someone tried to fold it...
That was my favorite part of MAD. We used to draw our own inside back covers.
the nazis did not invent government propaganda...... it is a product of the usa....woodrow wilson and bernays.... the germans merely copied it.... besides the germs were economically crushed and would have followed pee wee herman.... war was more pleasant than utter poverty... besides when you start a world war afterwards the world buys your overpriced cars...
NEWSWEEK is a joke perpetrated by the harman family / extreme libtards riding the crony phoney capitalist gray train... they bought it for$1 and they overpaid.....
it diverts woodpulp from toilet paper where it would be much more useful.....
Thomas Jefferson, third president of the United States memorably stated in a letter in 1807: ‘nothing can now be believed which is seen in a newspaper. Truth itself becomes suspicious by being put into that polluted vehicle... Perhaps an editor might begin a reformation in some such way as this. Divide his paper into four chapters, heading the first, Truths; second, Probabilities; the third, Possibilities; the fourth, Lies. The first chapter would be very short.’
Typical ... a President with diminishing popularity lashes out at the press.
If there is one thing you can be sure of, I have done all the necessary reading many moons ago.
Let me assure you, more people understand a reference to Goebbels than Bernays. And while Goebbels was a keen student of Bernays writings, I would venture to say that he took it all to a different level.
Our own overlords have certainly taken Herr Goebbel's nuances very close to heart.
Similarly Hitler had Le Bon's book on his night table, yet Le Bon is not remembered as the evil maestro who manipulated the crowds so adeptly.
Things have gotten so "in your face" that I forgot I was looking at your work and thought the Goebbels stuff was real!
Hi WB7:
well, except for "Demonic"

Have you checked out Behemouth: The Structure and practice of National Socialism by Franz Neuman?
Wow...
Bernays... Freud's nephew. offers a hint at how evil and twisted psychology is today.
Well. That explains why the sauce named after him is so nasty.
"how do you feel"?
A good liar needs no mentors....
You are incorrect. Propaganda was a product of the Soviet Revolution in Russia.
The Americans saw the potential and went to Russia to learn all they could from them. And Marketing was born.
PR was created by Freud's relative, a JEW named Bernays. The Ethos documentary has an explanation that anyone can follow, even USA propagandists.

Freud's nephew to be exact. See the two DVD documentary "The Century of the Self" for a good hisotry of Bernay's effect on politics, advertising and "public relations," a phrase coined by Bernays and title of one of his books.
double post
Bolshebviks were funded by Rothchild's City of London. Now you know where all modern propaganda emerged.
small city-states during the Bronze Age had no use for propaganda... they had religion. the King was the High Priest, and his critics... heretics
note the depictions of Ramses_II trampling his enemies in victory (don't note the fact that he lost most of the depicted wars, you unbeliever)

antichrist = putin
a war of good god against evil devil, nukular bums, unconditional surrender, endtime prophecy, and apocalyptic wet dreams.
neoziocons and cockroaches GET UNDERGROUND NOW (and don't forget your bitcoins).
The Reverend and good Doctor Jack Van Impe, welcome to ZH, good one, ha ha ha.
Damn, the new face of evil.
Guess I'll have to retire now.
< Newsweek. I'd buy that for a dollar!
< Newsweek. Didn't somebody actually buy it for a dollar?
"Joseph Goebbels - A man ahead of his time..."
So is Albert Pike, no?
I saw the Newsweek cover and was speechless. All that was missing were the numbers 666 and a hidden penis. Though I see you properly 'inserted' the Goebbels penis.
Love the mailing label to John Kerry in Vichy, DC. So fitting.
