how truth is coverd by lies

i was watching this Youtube video of Bush giving a speach
and looking at the editing of the voice i was thinking how much of the stuff that is broadcast here by our media and the media of our foes are manipulated just for their intrests without a care for the real story.



has free press gone so low that it is now a weapon?
(weapon as in a tool to spread lies and so forth)

IMO, most of the so called 'free press' IS being used as a weapon (of mass deception, one might add). It is soft and very subtle weapon, yet very effective; it can be used to 'create public opinion' (for instance, coerce people to belive something, to behave in a certain way etc). Remember Joseph Goebbels and his principles? Well, today most of this principles are still in use, but are more refined and subtle. There is an interesting book covering use of media and PR considering war in Iraq.

Folks who just read newspapers and watch TV and trust all of it, often think they know what is actually happening in the world. In reality, such people actually haven't got they own opinion at all, but opinion of TV/newspaper editors and people who control (own, if you will) them.
