Media Smearing of Truth Movement Reaching a Crescendo


www.corbettreport.com

Despite recent breakthroughs, media continues to paint 9/11 truthers, others as dangerous terrorists

An example of this phenomenon comes from the crime series Law & Order: SVU. A recent episode of the series featured a storyline in which a deranged "conspiracy theorist" in New York murders tourists taking his picture because he believes they are uploading the pictures to a government database.

Theirs something to be said about all the attacks that the 9/11 truth movement has been taking on as of late. It's starting to take a life of it's own kind of when the truth was being sought out about the JFK assasination. For me the examply I share is strolling down the street coming to a corner, others at the corner are all stairing off to the right of the street without my awareness, another comes along and makes a state that those people should really mind their own business. As I stated, I wasn't aware if it (sheeple) but due to his comment I have now awakened to an event that I might have missed if he hadn't said anything at all! Now I want to know the truth about what is happening down the street... I don't know, maybe it's crazy to want to be aware, to want to know the truth about things and not just except that the title of the book is all there is to a story? Hmm let me know your thoughts about the thread attached...

wow this is riddled with propaganda


very disturbing trend indeed.

has anyone in real life killed tourists taking photos thinking they were government agents putting them in a database?

i have never heard of that happening in real life.

SVU is fiction of course, but they do try to act like it is based on "reality"

so this episode is definitely a bad sign of things to come

I'm totally paraphrasing here, but oddly enough at the time, one of the first things out of Bush's mouth after 9-11 was something to the effect that 'we must never tolerate conspiracy theories about sept. 11'.
Always found that really unnerving considering he said that while they were still pulling bodies and cleaning up rubble. I guess the conspiracy theorists really gave his dad and all his CIA buddies a hard time after JFK and they knew the questions were coming.

But in the same episode you have sane conspiracy theorist like Detective Munch. I don't think the show was trying to demonize conspiracy theorists, this is part of why we get picked on, because we see a conspiracy against conspiracies everywhere.

Thanks! I agree that the media does attack us, even Law and Order: SVU has misrepresented some groups, like those who do not choose to vaccinate their children. I just don't think we should be up in arms every time a show has crazy conspiracy theorist characters.

Oh, no doubt I agree... I don't think that the movement is that sensitive honestly, I think we are coming off that way via the MSM or at least that is what I am getting from the way we are being betrayed... Your so awesome... Truly!

"Let us never tolerate outrageous conspiracy theories about 911, which are designed to take the blame away from the terrorists themselves"

I think thats as close as it gets without looking up the video. Notice the intentional use of outrageous.

Predetermining, that anything contradicting the official story is outrageous.

Great point "King". I think the evidence, video and actual events that day shows that a new investigation is warranted. Hmm

I dont think they did it blatantly to bash conspiracy theorist but it was something juicy for the show and the way everyone is conditioned to see conspiracy theorist as crazy lunatics it reflects through tv, i dont think they do it on purpose but its the only way they are shown that conspiracy theorist act

I haven't really been watching any tv in the last 10 years, or watching modern movies. But I did have the misfortune to watch the latest Batman movie the Dark Knight. Well if you wanna see propaganda just watch that, Batman gives a thumbs up and a cheesy grin for the patriot act in that movie, along with a whole host of other stuff.

I can barely even stand to listen to my "unbiased" BBC news anymore, the amount of lies in all forms of entertainment and reporting is so high it's unreal. And we're not even at war!

I respect your opinion but I will say that it's been stated that 9/11 truthers are being targetted by the MSM by the MSM as propaganda and a distraction from the past administration and this one allowing them to push through all their past and new hate crime bills "Crap" and other bills while we (you and I) debate these issues lol... All Distractions!

Great post and discusion
