“We have the problem that – now I’m mainly talking about the public [state] media – we have a closeness to the government. Not only because
commentary is mainly in line with the grand coalition (CSU, CDU, and SPD), with the spectrum of opinion, but also because we are completely taken in
by the agenda laid down by the political class.”
Anything new?
For real, this is nothing new to us in germany, i mean, we´re not all the same, some of us don´t watch TV the whole day and learn only from the BILD
"newspaper". Or not all of us work "25hrs a day" without questioning anything. We are aware of the mass media agenda, because we are not blind or
deaf.
Anybody here knows about the ZDF and political interactions.
And we all are forced to pay for that propaganda by former called GEZ. It´s a tax which isn´t called tax. If you don´t pay it, you may have to face
jailtime for the money you "owe" them. Even if you don´t own a TV or a radio. But it might be that you maybe will use one, in future, so you have to
pay for it. Minority Report?
There is another problem here in germany with the media, the journalists, the most of them are member of the "Atlantikbrücke".
Atlantik-Brücke e.V. ~ Home
When i opened it right now, i saw Henry Kissinger quoted:
“Government relations are always, or usually, conducted with a specific goal in mind. Institutions like Atlantik-Brücke permit one to meet in a
less constrained manner and deal with long-range objectives. It is not a substitute for government relations, but it can be an important supplement.
”
Dr. Henry A. Kissinger, U.S. Secretary of State, 1973-1977
Just saying...
It´s "funny", when i switch the wikipedia(i know, i know...) page from "deutsch"
Atlantik-Brücke
to english
Atlantik-Brücke
anything that could sound negative is gone, like critics or the part: American Council on Germany & Council on Foreign Relations...
Here is a little list of some known "independent" german journalists that "only report uninfluenced news to the german public":
German "journalists"/Atlantikbrücke
It´s almost all of the most prominent "journalists" of germany, even the "leftists".
So we have two big problems here in germany with the mass media. It´s not only that it would represent german government opinion, it´s spreading the
point of view of the US government, we are completely owned by the US gov since the fall of that lunatic austrian mass murderer and his german nazi
gang, some decades back ago.
Not because the US government(!!!) loves us, but because of geopolitical reasons. First it was the first Cold War, then, after the
"Entnazifizierung"(sure... xD ) and US influenced reeducation we became useful for other things, like hosting US atomic weapons, as a spy center for
whatever US authorities like the NSA for example, and what else.
I only wanted to say that there is not one government on earth that wouldn´t use the mass media to spread it´s point of view, to make people think
what the government wants "it´s" people to think. But in germany it isn´t even our own "government" that uses mass media propaganda to brainwash
people.
And the most of the germans are aware of the situation, since a long time. But what should we people do?
At this point the movie They Live comes in my mind. Some "hackers" that use the mass media to spread the truth till all the antennas and transmitters
are destroyed. To wake the last remote controlled people up...
Just dreaming...
