It is not merely entertainment. There is an agenda based on 2 issues: 1) Money-Selling, Promoting, and Marketing; 2) Influencing Public Opinion. Stories are pushed through the 2 main feeds: AP & Reuters according to plan and pushed down to the local networks. In the meantime, paid bloggers and disinformation specialists control what gets out in alternative media, namely internet forums and boards. Sound crazy? Do some research if you seek the truth.

It's a house of cards that is falling apart. Especially in the last 2 years, nearly all of the people that thought my questioning MSM official stories DO NOT anymore. My mother does not believe a single word that comes from any news organization. I never thought it would happen. I don't know any co-workers, family, friends, or remote acquaintances that believe the media anymore.


yes, i think about two years ago, with the gabby giffords hoax, the tables started to turn.
every news story since has been almost absurd. that your close ones think differently
now is testament to the fact that the tide has turned and that the old institutions of
control, corruption, tyranny and deceit are being systematically destroyed.

the future is bright. very bright indeed.
we are there.

That's actually a pretty powerful video used properly in the right hands.

It's these kind of dispays that are simple enough and blatant enough for your average sheep to sit up and say WTF? if I showed that video to my 80 year old mother she'd wake up at least enough to start being supicious of the news.

The biggest journeys always start with a single step.

I hope this goes insanely viral but I doubt it.

I would think so.

It actually isnt much of a surprise considering the fact that a couple of firms control and own all media.


True enough. I guess they didn't expect anyone to compile the many incarnations of their script from across the country. Oops.

Thanks for that. Jeez, there's a lot of those out there. More than I thought. Quite the can of worms.

I don't have cable, satellite or an antenna. The only shows I watch is on the net now. 5 or 6 shows, when they're in season. I don't watch much TV anymore let alone the news. When a person starts to look, and you don't even have to look that hard, you can see right through their lies and deceit. Nice post, thanks.

I'm posting this everywhere I can. The most response I had was here. It's sad that people aren't all that interested. They rather gossip about Jersey shore and support those who deceive them.

Of course they have a script, they can't just make it up s they go. Someone writes it.

But because they read from an auto cue or something, this means that 911 was a hoax and dorner was santa clause.

I get it.


Actually , you are not getting it. Which is a bit mind boggling to be honest. Are you acting stupid on purpose? Because it is quite hard to believe for anyone to misinterpret the whole thing in the way you just did.

That's why I didn't respond. He's so far off the mark I think he's trolling or something. It's fine he's allowed. Freedom of speech and all.

But at least he changed his avatar.

Wino, your shirt-less one with the mustache reminded of those dirty '70's films.

So, you have no issue with this? Just trying to get a little more out of you. What's your take on this?

Funny you should mention that...
information and news outlets are of course owned by only a couple different companies..so...ya. pretty much. a narrative is put down from the top and spreads out amongst many local outlets.
Murdoch, Turner, they decide what we think.

They could at least give us a little variety in our daily dose of propaganda. That way it wouldn't be so easy for one guy to sit around and collect all those clips into one video. Sheesh.

I would think that it is always scripted. I dont think they would just get on and wing it. Imagine if that was the case you'd get a lot of umms and likes and such.

Why does it matter if they're told what to say? It's probably better than the alternative, they'd have to memorize a lot of information and it would be a mess. I don't see why it's an issue, we're still told the news, and it's always been scripted.

The point is that they all had the same script. Of course it's all orchestrated, but the fact that it's the same statement from CNN to your local morning news is beyond fishy. Our media and our government are controlled by the corporations and the banksters. Just ponder the question...... Why are they telling us this now?

Of course it's always been scripted. But the fact that everybody has the same script verbatim is a bit disconcerting to me. We know for a fact some politicians and lobbyists who also own media outlets also have huge stakes in Banks, in pharmaceutical companies, Electronic companies who have major military contracts, chemical companies who also have military contract. Don't you think this is a great conflict of interest? Just take the Comcast CEO and former Director of the Bank of New York Brian L. Roberts for example. From 2006 to 2009 he contributed 90 000$ to political parties. I know, he's allowed. But what ever politicians don't spend during their political campaign they can keep, right. Some one that has major influence over the media shouldn't be allowed to to make substantial contribution the any political parties. Why shouldn't they you say? Well they're the Media. They're supposed to be neutral and not take sides.

I just think something stinks and I'm definitely not the only one.
