THE MOST DANGEROUS ENTITY TODAY By Jerry McGlothlin Dual career of news reporter and publicist for 34 years

What is the most dangerous entity in the U.S. today? The mainstream news media

Think about it. What was the last major world power in history to wield enormous propaganda? The U.S.S.R.

They had something called the Pravda that the world knew was straight propaganda. Eventually, even the people of Russia figured that out.

But the key difference between the Pravda and mainstream Western media is simple. The Western media is a Pravda-like hydra with a thousand heads.

The New York Times, CNN, the BBC. You name it. It's Pravda all over again--except people believe it since they can't contemplate the possibility that they're all 'in on it.' So the propaganda machine marches forward.

It's the old psych 101 lessons on cognitive consonance/cognitive dissonance and Orwell's 1984 rolled into one. When a person intuitively realizes they are watching lies and disinformation they change the channel, but they see the same thing reported by a news anchor with different hair color. They might switch to a newspaper or an online major media outlet but the see the same thing.

I have been saying this since 1992. Good to see others are catching on.

I’m starting to think RT (Russia Today) offers more reliable information than America’s Fake News Media.

Going to be I tereting if Trump is dumb enough to accept debate terms from the media. Personally I would demand that only Rush Limbaugh conducts the debate forum, with the challenge that anyone else in the media with a 99.98% accuracy rating in telling the truth can replace him for moderator. If the democrap refuses to participate, just do the debate as a Q&A forum with Rush and watch the ratings go through the roof....vs. ABC, NBC,CBS, PBS, CNN, MSNBC coverage of a democrap mater debating against himself!

The media is just the propaganda arm of the most dangerous entity: As others above have alluded, the Deep State; the Democrat party, the Unitparty Republicans and the ‘Three Letter Agencies’ have united to be the most dangerous entity in the U.S.A.

During the Cold War, the USSR and the USA competed in every way.

A secret road race was held with the only two entrants; the USSR and the USA. The USA car won handily.

The official newspaper of the Communist Party of the Soviet Union, Pravda, (which means truth), had the following headline the next morning: “USSR finishes second, USA is next to last.”

Today, that would be the CNN headline.
