How The Public Get Suckered By "News" Media Ignoring Reality
Submitted by Eric Zuesse, originally posted at strategic-culture.org,
According to Russian Television on December 25th, Russian intelligence has counted “up to 12,000” tanker trucks filled with oil “on the Turkish-Iraqi border,” and “the final destination remains to be Turkey.” In addition, some of those trucks are still heading into Turkey from Syria, but their number is “decreased” because Russia’s Syrian bombing campaign, which started on September 30th, has, ever since they began bombing the oil trucks on November 18th, destroyed “up to 2,000” of those trucks, that were in Syria heading into Turkey.
According to the news report, Russia is requesting help from the U.S. coalition to bomb the “up to 12,000” trucks that are in Iraq carrying ISIS oil into Turkey. ISIS drives them there so that ISIS can become self-sustaining by the oil-sales. ISIS, which had long been supported by America’s allies the Arab oil potentates — all of whom are fundamentalist Sunnis — aims to be self-sustaining now on the sales of this stolen oil through Turkey, which is operating the black market in ISIS’s stolen oil. That’s why Russia wants to stamp out this market. “However, so far, Washington says that it is not ready for such a move,” the report says.
Whereas Russia had begun on November 18th to bomb those trucks en-route into Turkey, and eliminated around 500 of them at that time, the U.S. coalition hadn’t bombed any such trucks until later that day, November 18th, in order to pretend to be competitive with what Russia had been doing since it started on 30 September 2015, to bomb in Syria. Before the U.S. bombed the 116 trucks it destroyed, it warned the drivers 45 minutes in advance.
Here was the shocking admission that was made by the U.S. Defense Department’s press-spokesman at his 18 November 2015 presentation, in which he voluntarily acknowledged that, throughout all of the 14 months during which the U.S. had been bombing in Syria and in Iraq, the U.S. hadn’t previously destroyed any of the tens of thousands of oil tank-trucks that had been transporting ISIS's stolen oil out from Iraq and from Syria — the stolen-oil sales that bring $2B per year into ISIS coffers — and that the U.S. had warned 45-minutes in advance:
This is our first strike against tanker trucks, and to minimize risks to civilians, we conducted a leaflet drop prior to the strike. We did a show of force, by — we had aircraft essentially buzz the trucks at low altitude.
So, I do have copy of the leaflet, and I have got some videos, so why don't you pull the leaflet up. Let me take a look at it so I can talk about it.
As you can see, it's a fairly simple leaflet, it says, "Get out of your trucks now, and run away from them." A very simple message.
And then, also, "Warning: airstrikes are coming. Oil trucks will be destroyed. Get away from your oil trucks immediately. Do not risk your life."
And so, these are the leaflets that we dropped — about 45 minutes before the airstrikes actually began. Again, we combine these leaflet drops with very low altitude passes of some of our attack aviation, which sends a very powerful message.
So: not only had the U.S. previously avoided destroying ISIS’s main current source of income (besides the multimillion-dollar donations made by members of the royal families of Saudi Arabia, Qatar, UAE, and Kuwait — all of whom are protected by the U.S.) (and Secretary of State Hillary Clinton had urged all of them on 30 December 2009 please to stop funding their terrorists), but, when the U.S. now started to bomb those tank-trucks filled with stolen oil, the U.S. warned in advance the drivers, who were also assets to the jihadist cause the U.S. pretended to oppose, and thus were enemies of the public (and were participants in the evils of ISIS). The U.S. Department of Defense (DOD) wanted to protect them — not to kill them. That was done “to minimize risks to civilians.” Wow!! After the U.S. history of slaughtering millions of civilians in wars, and torturing many, including complete innocents in Iraq and elsewhere, we’re now protecting ISIS’s drivers? Can any hypocrisy exceed this? If the United States were a democracy, its press would have been focusing on this issue for a week. The U.S. protecting ISIS’s financial base, and assets, has mind-boggling implications. On what side are ‘we’ — and who are “we,” and who are “them”? We are not the aristocracy. The aristocracy are them. It includes the top stockholders in firms such as Lockheed Martin. Warren Buffett said in 2006 “There’s class warfare, all right, but it’s my class, the rich class, that’s making war, and we’re winning.” That’s shocking honesty.
Did any of the major U.S. news media, all of which have reporters attending those press conferences, report the U.S. Government’s open admission there, that the U.S. Government had protected ISIS all along, not bombed any of ISIS’s oil tank-trucks (until Russia did)? Those trucks providing $2B per year to ISIS terrorists? None of them reported it. None of them conveyed to their audience this astounding information — essentially, that the U.S. was protecting the money-flow to the jihadists in Syria, and was even protecting their truckers, and its ‘press’ were protecting them.
Another major revelation at this same press conference was that "we right now have no plans to conduct coordinated operations with the Russians” in Syria. And this was reconfirmed on December 25th from the Russian side, as being still the U.S. policy. In other words: the U.S. President is so hostile toward Russia, that, even months after Russia’s request to Washington on September 30th to cooperate in killing all jihadists in Syria,Obama still refuses to work together with Russia, or even just to “coordinate operations with the Russians,” to kill the jihadists. (And, in the Democratic debate on 19 December 2015, Hillary Clinton insisted that eliminating the jihadists in Syria mustn’t have higher priority than, nor occur before, Bashar al-Assad is permanently removed from Syria’s leadership. Her position is at least as anti-Russian as Obama’s.)
The jihadists had flocked into Syria to oust the non-sectarian leader of that country, Assad, and to replace him with an Islamist leader, a Sharia-law Sunni, whom the U.S. Government, and the royal families of Saudi Arabia, Qatar, UAE, and Kuwait, approve of as being better than the non-sectarian Assad (who is personally a Shiite, but runs a decidedly unsectarian, secular, government). The jihadists work for the American alliance.
Russia’s position on the matter is that no foreign power possesses the right to determine whom the President of Syria will or won’t be; only the Syrian people do, in an election. Russia insists that it be determined in internationally monitored and overseen elections. However, polls taken by Western polling firms indicate that Assad would overwhelmingly win any such election; so, U.S. President Barack Obama has rejected democracy for Syria. And yet, the U.S. accuses Putin of being dictatorial, and claims itself to be ‘democratic.’ And the U.S. President demands that Syria’s legal President be removed from power and excluded from any possibility of ever again becoming that nation’s President. This is America’s version of ‘democracy’ in Syria.
The DOD spokesperson, Steve Warren, spoke contemptuously of Russia. He said that in Russia’s war against jihadists in Syria, "the Russians are using dumb bombs. Their history has been both reckless and irresponsible.” This statement was being made by a military spokesman for the same Government that in the most “reckless and irresponsible” manner had invaded and destroyed Iraq in 2003. However, his statement here was also, itself, simply false. Russia’s bombings have been with both precision-guided weapons and unguided munitions that are under no control after being fired.
Warren there was reaffirming a reporter’s question which had asserted: “Getting back to Raqqa, as we all know, the Russians are not using precision munitions. Any sense of any increased civilian casualties in Raqqa as a result of that?” So, Warren was here reaffirming a reporter’s (or actually, a press-appointed government stenographer’s) falsehood — reaffirming an assertion that was either unprofessionally ignorant, or else a knowing lie. On September 30th, when Russia had started its air strikes, the U.S. had said that they were “doomed to failure.” That, too, seems increasingly likely to have been false (that it was “doomed to failure”). (And any such pretended foresight is also a lie when it comes from an official source such as a government. It was mere propaganda.)
Instead of the mainstream U.S. press reporting that the U.S. Government lied there (and this Government does it routinely, because the ‘press’ never report that a lie by the President is a lie), only a small number of only non-mainstream sites, all online-only, picked up anything from this stunning press conference, regarding any of the important and much-discussed issues that it addressed; and the first such site to do so was a fundamentalist Christian one, which is obsessively pro-Israel, and generally hard-rightwing Republican. Bridget Johnson at PJ Media headlined, on the same day as the press conference (the only site to report at all upon it that day, November 18th), “ISIS Oil Tankers Hit for First Time – With 45-Minute Warning.” This was an admirable reporting coup (though it wasn’t really “for First Time,” since Russian bombers had already done it), because it covered all of the main points, including the shocking admissions by Mr. Warren. Her news coup had over 1,400 reader-comments.
Paul Joseph Watson, at the generally conservative Republican site InfoWars, bannered on November 23rd, "WHITE HOUSE GAVE ISIS 45 MINUTE WARNING BEFORE BOMBING OIL TANKERS,” and he placed these matters honestly into their geostrategic context, of the Obama Administration’s placing a higher priority upon defeating Russia than defeating jihadism. As is so often the case with the terrific journalist Watson, he penetrated deeply into these matters, and was not at all shy to acknowledge, for example, the following stark contrast, which U.S. ‘news’ media hide:
Compare the Obama White House’s approach to fighting ISIS to that of Russia.
While it took the U.S. fifteen months to even begin targeting ISIS’ oil refineries and tankers, air strikes by Moscow destroyed more than 1,000 tankers in a period of just five days.
In comparison, Col. Steve Warren said that the U.S. had taken out only 116 tanker trucks, the “first strike” to target ISIS’ lucrative black market oil business, which funds over 50 per cent of the terror group’s activities.
So: this, too, like Bridget Johnson’s report, was honest and first-rate news-reporting, from another non-mainstream Republican site. (Note, however, that the mainstream Republican news-sites, such as Fox News, Wall Street Journal, and Rush Limbaugh, were no more forthcoming on this matter than all of the Democratic Party sites were.)
The aristocracy’s control over all the mainstream ‘news’ is ironclad - and this includes the political magazines, such as National Review, and The Nation; as well as ‘intellectual’ magazines, such as Harpers and The Atlantic. American ‘news’ media stifle democracy in America; they’re not part of democracy, in America. They’re like poison that’s presented as being ‘medicine’ instead. Suckers don’t just swallow it; they come back for more of that propaganda.
The next day, November 23rd, “Tyler Durden,” the pseudonymous genius behind his own Zero Hedge blog, headlined "'Get Out Of Your Trucks And Run Away': US Gives ISIS 45 Minute Warning On Oil Tanker Strikes,” and he reported using some of the same sources as the others, but supplementing it with additional good sources. He had around 400 reader-comments.
In addition, there were some trashy news-reports at far-right Republican sites, such as one, on November 19th, crediting Bridget Johnson’s news report the day before as its source, "The Obamization of the military, pt. 243.” This was by J.R. Dunn, at the fundamentalist Republican, American Thinker, blog. He pretended that Obama was being bad here because Obama was too concerned to avoid bloodshed: “You see, the important thing isn’t hurting ISIS. No – the important thing is not hurting civilians.” Picking up from the standard Republican meme that torture should be used against ‘bad people’ in order for ‘good people’ to be kept safe, and that civilians in ‘enemy’ nations are okay to be victims of American military attacks, Dunn took Bridget Johnson’s news-report merely as confirmation of his own bigotries and hatreds. He had about 150 reader-comments. Typical was this one: "The Left in America has known that in order to succeed with their agenda the US military had to be infiltrated, compromised, and weakened.” For such suckers, the ‘source’ of America’s problems wasn’t America’s aristocracy; it was America’s Democrats.
On November 24th, Michael Morell, Obama’s CIA Director during 2011-2013, said on the trashy PBS Charlie Rose show (hosted by Mr. Rose, who is such an incompetent interviewer that he’s beloved by aristocrats for his reliably softball interviews), “We didn’t go after oil wells, actually hitting oil wells that ISIS controls, because we didn’t want to do environmental damage, and we didn’t want to destroy that infrastructure.” Of course, Mr. Rose avoided drilling down there to find out why the U.S. Government treats jihadists as being such a minor matter — especially after all of the environmental damage the U.S. routinely does in its invasions, such as the depleted uranium that contaminates today’s Iraq, from the U.S. attacks. And, of course, almost all of the news-media that picked up on that stunning admission from Obama’s former CIA Director, were Republican sites, such as Daily Caller, Washington Times, Breitbart, Real Clear Politics, and American Thinker. In addition, there were a few high quality journalistic sites reporting it, such as Zero Hedge, The Hill, The Economic Collapse, and Moon of Alabama. In other words: only very few Americans came to know about this jaw-dropping stunning admission from an Obama official — and most who did were people who hate Obama for his being such things as ‘against torture’ (in other words: Republican stooges of the aristocracy).
Basically, in America, only marginal, and mainly right-wing, audiences were being informed even badly, regarding the sensational things that were revealed — and in some instances proudly revealed — at the November 18th DOD press conference, and also in the November 24th TV interview of Morell. What is traditionally viewed as being America’s “news media” were entirely absent from their job of reporting even one of these two important statements by U.S. Government officials. And none of the news-reports on that astounding DOD press conference, and of that Morell interview, reached Democratic Party voters at all. Republicans hate Obama because he’s a communist Islamic Kenyan, while Democrats love Obama because the wacko Republican Party lies about him constantly and because Obama is to the left of those blithering wackos.
A press like this makes it impossible for there to be intelligent, informed, rather than misinformed and/or stupid, voting in national political elections in the United States.
Perhaps the biggest scandal in America is its rigid aristocratically controlled ‘press,’ which is really nothing more than a whored propaganda-operation that’s run by and for the nation’s aristocracy. The owners of America’s ‘news’ media know that the way for the press to make money in this type of dictatorship is to sell to the aristocrats’ corporations access to the public, and to ‘report’ only ‘news’ that the corporate sponsors don’t mind the public’s knowing about.
So: this is how the public get suckered, in America.
It wouldn’t be so bad if the American Government didn’t hypocritically claim to be a ‘democracy.’ That’s just piling it on, with a shovel.

"We are all born ignorant, but one must work hard to remain stupid" Benjamin Franklin
I love how they use the word "aristocracy" instead of "jews" when describing who has the ironclad control over the media. Even this article of supposed enlightenment misses the mark. But, this is why people with discerning minds bypass the MSM entirely and use the internet to garner data. At least here opposing sides of information can be obtained and an independent opinion thus be conceived.
The CIA started infiltrating the media in the1950's, and their control over it has just grown over the decades since. When they got away with murdering john and Bobby Kennedy, they knew it was over. Building 7 shows just how much disdain they have for the sheeple.
ARISTOCRACY??? surely you mean JEWS!!!
BREAD & CIRCUSES.
Lies by omission is by far the greatest crime the MAINSTREAM MEDIA commits on a regular basis. But what do you expect when 90% of all radio, print, and television news is controlled by six corporations?
We live in a world of oligarchies. The powerful few control the media, pharma, energy, military weapons, cable companies, and the banks to name a few. If we wish to make this country great again, we need to start breaking up these corporations before they destroy capitalism for good and replace it with the corporate fascist state (and we are on the fast track do that now thanks to TPP).
It's always great sport beating up the MFM primarily because they are such biased scumsucking louts who pissed away their mandate solely for a seat at the table with the ruling elite, but let no one be deceived - if this author had his way progressive ilk like Obama & Co would be the only rulers allowed to have power.
"I love how they use the word "aristocracy" instead of "jews""
I was going to say I luv how they use the abbreviation CIA instead of j.e.w.
Anyway....
Dude come on man... why's it always that? I resemble that remark.
I will be Pro-Israel when there is nothing but fucking desert there.
Then, what will the Jewish controlled MSM, Hollyweird and Porn industries say?
What will be their purpose?
The Neo Pogrom beckons.

All just code words for Jew.

Now, lemme try to tell this to either my Neo-Con or Progressive buds and they tell me that I left my tin-foil hat at home. Can't explain to the other that both FOX and MSNBC are one and the same separate parts of the Big Lie.
Don't waste your breath. Most people I encounter here in the states are dumber than dirt -
....AND THEY WANT IT THAT WAY. THEY LIKE IT. It used to be embarrassing to NOT know.
Now, it's ...the norm. I get people laughing when they get a question totally wrong. Being "dumb" is "chic" in this fucked up, PC, white people are shit culture.
Facts mean nothing. You cannot compete with the daily bombardment of the elite owned media, who tells the sheeple what to think/how to think/when to do shit.
Opt out.
I get numerous attempts to get sucked into conversations (and over the holidays...fuck me) by neo-cons to liberals. All know what I do.
The empirical data I see that they don't see. Some clam up, as saying their partisan horseshit in front of me is hazardous to their fucking ego.
I end up listening - NOT talking. What I hear is sickening in it's ignorance.
TRULY....the reason we have such total cunts in Congress...and that fuck in the WH.
Dumb people will always try to prefer some other dumb shit, that is why many smart politicians and elites play dumb. Don't ever mistake playing dumb with being dumb, even if they seem to be the same thing.

Maybe the people who own the media are the same as those who profit?
That's more than just a maybe. It is the same in Australia and in Germany (my old country that I still monitor from time to time).
All big media organisations are bent. What we need to learn from it, is checking over the alternative media and use search words to verify.
The CIA started infiltrating the media in the1950's, and their control over it has just grown over the decades since. When they got away with murdering john and Bobby Kennedy, they knew it was over. Building 7 shows just how much disdain they have for the sheeple.
Government infiltration into the recesses of the media goes back further. Right to Woodrow Wilson.
The reality is that the public is starting waking up to this problem with media.
People FEEL they being fooled but dont understand WHY and HOW.
The demand for REAL News ( or how they call it alternative news ) is growing and the public tuning their TV sets to channels like RT and start reading zerohedge instead of BBC/CNN.
That is why the apologets of the deep state trying to figure out how to supress REAL news and how to shut down independent media. That is why US/UK funds the fight against the media they do not control.
As I have said, time and time again..we have, "The List."
The fuckers that have dominated media, politics, and corporate corruption for the past 25 years will not escape us.
They are doomed to fucking Hell.
Hey news media,
STOP whoring for Wall Street:

Here's another one: The USA has always welcomed immigrants. There are so many US immigration laws that were designed to exlcude people based upon race, ethnicity and yes, even, religion, that rosy claims puked by Hillary, Bernie, the president and others are total nonsense, but the media will never report that.
Here is a video explaining who owns the U.S. media:

The U.S. press consolidated into a cross directorate of companies after Bill Clinton's tellecommunication act.
Bill Clinton was a CFR agent.
Even Zuesse's "expose" of the press, doesn't really get to the heart of the matter.
You cannot fix a problem unless you first make an accurate diagnosis.
bad news. left the Big Apple for the South. Gulf Coast FL actually. People here I talked to figure better
we nuke them, yup, nuke them first if we have to cuz if they get their hands on one, they'd do it to us first, in a heart beat. Nevermind, we're "over there" killing their women and children, droning their wedding parties, bombing their hospitals, incinerating their truck driving husbands trying to make a riyal to feed his family. Nope. They took down the WTC didnt they? (actually, it was the Saudis) they shot all those French people (nope, they were French citizens) they killed those CA people, (actually they were radicalized in Saudi, Paki's last i checked) Nevermind all that. If we gotta nuke em, so be it.
i suggested, before we turn the ME into a parking lot, might we first take care of our own, get out of their business, fix our immigration policy, roads & bridges, medical & education? lets take our eye off the gunsite for a minute and look where we're shooting from than who we're getting ready to kill. literally 10,000 miles away from a lounge chair in a parking lot in VA? might tell us something. are u really threatened by those refugees pouring out of their homes; damed by ISIS if they dont, bombed by us/Assad/Putin if they do?
Do u really consider a nuclear device appropriate?
thank you MScuM for nuttin
Most of you guys are light years ahead (of the masses), just be careful not to scare them back into their safe zone. Ive been working on my mother and stepfather for years, and after the shitshow over the weekend, they are finally listening to ME.. There was some fuck on fox (yes, they watch it) that was saying how our "computer grid" will be hacked. I started laughing and they looked at me like I was nuts. The step-father says to me " dont you believe what hes saying?"... a couple laughs afterwards I say " this shit is a decade past", and they already know how to do it, so and so... They listened to my argument and just sat there silently. I finish by saying these are scare tactics to get the populace to conform to internet control because "muh tewwoists", and we will lose the freedom of true and live information.... They stared at mne again...
anyways, baby steps
I print a couple copies of articles like this one, (with URL) and leave them on the table/counter at starbucs and cafe's etc.
You never know who picks them up and gets a little bit of enlightement.
Keep up the work.
Warning the drivers before bombing the trucks was the right thing to do.
Put out a warning one one day. The next day bomb a few trucks.
On the third day, wipe them all out.
War is not about being a pussy, it is about death and destruction.
Ironically, the more violent it is in the beginning, the fewer are killed long term.
Long protracted pussy wars are more bull shit - this "nice" war notion is designed to keep the gravy train going for Military Industrial Complex. Don't be a dupe.
Word will spread fast after the first day.
Addendum:
My comments are if it is a real war, voted on and approved by Constitutional principles.
The country then gears up and goes all out. God help you if you dont surrender.
Fake wars where MIC uses middle easterners as proxies is another thing entirely.
ISIS is a "foreign legion" for the U.S., a mercenary army.
U.S. mic, CIA, Saudi, Turkey and other allies don't want them or the truck drivers wiped out.
The oil is actually the source of income for paying this mercenary army.
Your post is half full of bullshit, real war can almost always be avoided, if you declare war, it means you could have avoided it. Tell me, real war man, do you believe that the attack on Pearl Harbour merited a declaration of war? I certainly do not, since it was instigated, it was a response from the Japanese, and the US knew about it and planned it, in order to make a case for a legit Declaration of War. Those who declare war 90% of the time are looking for war and want war, which is exactly what the MIC wants.
MEFOBILLS, attacking unarmed civilians is a war crime. If anyone gave you command, or you took it yourself and to followed through with your attacks, I'd like to see your court martial broadcast on CNN.
I only wish innocents wouldn't have had to die to finally justify locking you up away from society.
<-- This is better picture
Uuuuugh Tyler you were mentioned, how cool is that??? LOL. You actually make a very good, jo, and I am very grateful, because I know that I am not the only crazy MOFO out there. The question is can I join Fight Club?
Once you truly understand the word "sociopath", if you go back and read about Abraham, you'll see that three sister religions grew out of this nonsense. I don't hate religions; just the lyin' stealin' and killin' done in its name.
How did we get here? It was the US Supreme Court that ruled in New York Times v. Sullivan, that state defamation laws do not apply to the news media and public figures. They said such laws, which made the news media tell the truth or suffer the financial consequences, was chilling free speech.
What a crock of shit. We live in an information age where the only value to information is that it be true and those bozos decided that anyone at any time can lie about public figures.
When they ruled on this issue it was the first time in a long time that they favored corporate interests over the welfare of individuals. And they destroyed the media which went from 8000 independent outlets to now just 6.
If you follow my posts I have talked about National Socialists and how the good German people eventually accepted the NAZI Party and Hitler. It was when their progressive courts interpreted their constitution as a living document. WELL GUESS WHAT WAS DONE IN THE US. Our progressive courts have done the same thing for the National Socialist Progressive Party here in the US.
"Praise be to Obama bin Laden and death to the White Race, Republicanism and Capitalism,"is the only mantra of the Main Stream Media.
I figure that a sociopath becomes full blown psychopath when it escalates into killing.
Delete double post.
It's much easier done with News Rigging today, using bots to write news articles that also feed the stock exchange news feeds, and then it reads another bot written story and the circle keeps going. So many folks today are addicted to the "mother may I" algorithms of Facebook and people are using that technology to exploit and control. Bots write books too.

Sadly we do have a Dupes of Hazard society today. Bad data sells for the same price as good data and I think the same can be said for the news. Common sense as we have known it is gone as everyone is told they need more data and more information that's been "scored" for them by some algorithms.
It should behoove every thinker here to know that in 2015 the American MSM has been bought and paid for by the Obama administration.
There's really no sense pointing it out any more and talking about it.
If you don't think that's the case today, you probably never will. Until the Red Army flies the Hammer and Sickle from from the burned out Chancery on Pennsylvania Avenue.
It's hard for me to believe that all the 12,000 tanker trucks on the Iraqi/Turkish border are full of oil. Reason tells me that they have unloaded their oil in Turkey (which is what Erdogan wanted) and have driven back to the sanctuary of the border. Russia will not bomb trucks on the Turkish side and the US will not bomb trucks in Iraq.
As for the leaflets that the US dropped -- America was just being good to its word. It had promised all those drivers (not jihadists, just making a living) that if they drove oil to Turkey they would make a lot of money and the US would never bomb them.
Well, the damn Russians came along and told everybody how much money ISIS was making and then bombed some trucks.
What else could a hypocritical nation like the US do?
Its awfully difficult for media personalities to see where oil tanker trucks are headed. With their lips permanently attached to Obama's rear end, how could they possibly know what is happening elsewhere?
There is a good reason why voters on both sides of the political aisle have canceled newspapers and stopped watching network nightly lies -- the shows are just really really low quality propaganda.
If you haven't realised yet you're being played, you're a bit dim and as Trump says a real 'dope'.
They say the Devil's greatest trick is convincing us that he doesn't exist.
Well, the greatest trick of the Western governments is convincing us all that it's only the nasty Russians/Chinese/N. Koreans etc that only do propaganda....
Today 4 news stations ran the same story about a tree that fell on a a black woman's rental home, there were no injuries.
The hundred million dollar temporary bailout for Abengoa was unmentioned as well as who put up the cash, and what they got for it.
The funny thing is they are complaining about Russian propaganda-

Aristocracy? Why not call them by their names?
Zionist Jews, this is what they are like casino boss Sheldon Adelson( just bought the Las Vegas review and owns the clintons), Rupert Murdoch to name a few.
Then add all the ziocons in the whitehouse, and all these people have something in common: dual nationality, Israeli and murican; or single allegiance: Israel
And all their shabbos goys who do their bidding against the interests of muricans

if there was any demand for reality... then some supply might even come up
