The Biggest Threat To America's Future is the Media
Canada Free Press ^ | 05/28/18 | Rick Hayes

Posted on 05/26/2018 11:14:52 AM PDT by Sean_Anthony

There is no question that the left aims at changing America in the worst possible way but their efforts would go largely unnoticed if it not for a sympathetic and like-minded media

The United States of America is by far the most powerful nation on planet earth spending about as much on defense as the entire rest of the world. According to a report on globalization from Credit Suisse, the US has maintained its position as the world’s strongest military. As an example, although Russia has the most substantial number of tanks approx. 15,000 with the US coming in at around 8,000, the US tops the list in military aircraft with approx. 14,000, submarines at 72, and 11 aircraft carriers.

The Media is a propaganda arm for the Deep State and but one component of the Enemy Within. It is our worst enemy.

Hillary recently bragged that her majority popular vote came from what she described as high GDP areas.

In reality, they came from mostly urban, East and West Coast population centers.

A map, available online, of Hillary's voters, will show that those votes come from slivers of the population centers on the East and West coastlines, and few from across the breadth of America.

The so called Mainstream Media is an abomination to America and I have noticed even our local news has started falling in lockstep. There has to be a way to address them and their propaganda.

The media is a problem and a threat.

But no, the The Biggest Threat To America’s Future is the UNCONSTITUTIONAL 80% Portion of the $4 Trillion Federal Government who at this point has thrown off the chains of constitutional limitations and sees NO LIMIT to its power.

Since any unconstitutional act or department is an act or department of tyranny, we are now living under the tyranny of a rogue government which at any time could take away all that you hold dear including your lives and property. The media can’t force any of that. The government can force ALL of it, and eventually will if not stopped

Get it straight: THE GOAL of the Right is to MAGA by RESTORING the CONSTITUTION, dismantling the 80% unconstitutional portion of the feds, and restore our Free Constitutional Republic.

For the media the Left is where the money is.
We don’t even have a US media, it’s international now. Reflecting the desires of advertisers in other countries and for other countries.

US is unique, it is not a feudally structured government like everty other country in the world.

How do you think that happened? It happened because the U.S. became a Mediacracy. The Progressive (which is to say all the mainstream media) has been the greatest power in the United States for at least 50 years.

They chose what politicians were acceptable, what issues were important, what crimes were scandals, and what were not.

They still attempt to do that, but no longer control 99% of the information flow.

The media must control the Internet or it's game over. Governments have tried, with varying degrees of success, notably China, but that is a pyrrhic victory at best. However, the advent of a high-tech oligarchy has enabled a few avenues of subversion that did not exist twenty years ago - when a Jeff Bezos actually purchases one of the media flagships, the Washington Post, we see a major shift in the levers of power. What Google and Facebook have done recently serves to drive the lesson home. The New Boss isn't actually the same as the Old Boss, but it's getting pretty tough to tell them apart.

But the war has only started, and anyone with a keyboard and an Internet connection and a little determination gets to play, and that is not conducive to the sort of control the media have been enjoying up until now, high tech robber barons despite.

Along those lines, please donate to FR.

Regardless. The toxin going through the conduit is more threatening than the conduit itself. The conduit media is a problem, but the toxin could find other ways to kill our country.

The toxic unconstitutional government IS our greatest threat regardless of the conduits it uses.

The New York Times is ground zero for Bolshevik activity.

The entire building (with the commies inside it) should be demolished.

Also very offensive and problematic that the conduit is so eager to help the toxins flow.

I see alot of posts agreeing with the headline and complaining about the LEFT MEDIA CARTEL.

My question is what are you going to do about it?

what can we do about it?

Our greatest strength is our spending power. Many of these businesses would not exist or be severely diminshed without our dollars.

We have the power. Will we decide to use it?

The NFL is a good example. Chik-fil-a is another.

Our discretionary spending should not be used to fund the LEFT, especially the LEFT MEDIA CARTEL.

The cable channels depend on cable subscriber fees depend on those fees for their survival. CNN gets half of their revenue from them. If you pay the cable tv company, your check funds the LEFT MEDIA CARTEL.

Do not patronize national advertisers. There are plenty of generic and local options.

If we chose to use our spending power in this battle, we may be able to make opportunities for more competition in the media market.

I dont want to complain about the LEFT MEDIA CARTEL, I want to do something about it.

I loathe, despise, and hate the Delusional Lying Leftist media with a passion.

But our greatest threat is the mostly unconstitutional federal tyranny that threatens to literally destroy our lives, our freedoms, and our country.

The Right really needs to get that straight. There may not be a whole lot we can do directly about the miserable media, but there’s a HELL of a lot we could do directly to deal with and cut down the rogue feds.
