Dear Hell,

60 Minutes is doing a piece on the Pope, would Satan care to offer suggestions so we can balance the interview?

Respectfully yours,

Whore Media

Either by collaboration or fear they're controlled.

Who owns/controls the media tells one most everything they need to know.

Neo-liberal free market at its best:

And Bill Clinton's finest Fuck You America bar none . . . including Glass Steagall and Commodities Modernization Act.  Combined.

I very much concur with your assessment.  

May Clinton roast in a very special place in hell.

In March 2011, State Department PR hack Crowley made some negative comments on the government's treatment of whistleblower Private Chelsea Manning and Obama ordered Crowley's immediate firing.  Fuhrer Obama will brook no dissent as he follows the New World Order guidelines turning America into Nazi-themed Amerika.

The same media which covers Israel ad nauseam 24/7 but never, ever covers the actual occupation or the Palestinian perspective?

That media?

The media. Who controls it we know. We also all know by now how controls much of the finance, politics, "culture", education, courts etc etc. But what are we going to do about it? And when? I suspect nothing and never. This is the jews' ultimate victory to control the world. They will never be overthrown.

On the contrary, I would argue that not only will they be overthrown but will be killed to the very last one. The only question is when. Probably not anytime soon. 

When they lose grip and the goyim come down on them, there will probably be no mercy at that point. 

I feel bad for the innocent jews of that future.

At which point the rest of the world will have to step to stop holocaust part deux.  If you think Germany had it bad after WWII, wait until the smoldering ruins of America are occupied by Chinese, south of the border types, and, no doubt, gentle giants from African UN contingents.

Maybe we could brain wash 'em into thinking everything's great?

 

BTW, talking about media manipulations, now it's being reported by some alt media sites that 1.) the shooter was not-white 2.) is a Muzzie or at least has close friends, etc., who are radical Muzzies and 3.) his FB profile has been changed substantially since the shooting, adding in things like he's now a "Conservative Republican"
And TPTB wonder why shit happens.

Mencius Moldbug already covered this one, too, back in 2007.

"Of course, anyone with an IQ over 80 knows that the “mainstream media” is in fact the US’s official press.

No, the New York Times and CNN are not formal government agencies, like the BBC or Tass. Technically, journalists are corporate serfs like the rest of us.

But in fact, as Walter Lippmann pointed out in 1922, who controls public opinion has the nation by its balls, and woe unto any mere CEO [Conrad Black] who dares to screw with them.

Journos run the world—they are, in other words, responsible—and if American journalism were in fact reorganized into a Department of Information, as Lippmann suggested, their jobs would hardly change."

I'm a bit of a cunt. I was slightly surprized at reading the leaked mesage. How can I? I really don't know, so I'm a cunt. 

Then I reminded myself from one of my first jobs at a prime time radio station here in Holland (www.bnr.nl) some 23 years ago. When I interviewed a politician (or other institutionalized person for that matter), I never got a second interview after asking somewhat difficult and/or critical questions. indeed, if you want to stay alive in media (main stream) you got to be nice and ask the right questions.... This was the main reason to quite for me. Getting up at 3am didnt' help either....

So what's the deal - facts and truth no longer exist, eh? Just NARRATIVES? So whoever fabricates the best narrative wins?

You got it. In an artificial world, where the Average Joe is comfortably insulated from all unpleasant realities, Truth is a manufactured item.  And consumer choice is available.  Consumers choose the produce which best meets their needs.

Not as bad as the hype.  They TALKED to 60 minutes when they heard the piece was being done.  They pressed their point of view.  60 minutes staff made the decision NOT to present expert rebuttal as requested, but asked a few questions they thought might have merit.

Not nearly as bad as the headlines suggest. 60 minutes still has a little integrity.
