You hear people calling the Media the propoganda arm of the Democratic Party.
I think it is more accurate to call the Democratic Party the political arm of the Media.
If you think about it all the power centers of the left- Democratic Party(elected and not-elected),Hollywood, TV, Academia, Book publishing, Government employees, Unions, if attacked or systematically vilified by the National News Media would collapse under the onslaught.
For example if the news media was to actually to cover elections honestly, with equal skepticism directed at both parties, the Democratic Party would not even get 40% of the vote.
Your comment=correct & what Rush hss been saying for weeks.
1. While OBVIOISLY film, etc have “propaganda value”, it’s over stated. Our side forgets that, except for Radio Free Europe, the Soviets TOTALLY controlled ALL entertainment for over u0 years . . And still lost and a handful of rock and rollers consistently got through with more real effect. See my movie “Rockin’ the Wall.”
2. As Breitbart urged, we cannot retreat from film & entertainment but wade in and fight. And NOT with preachy documentaries (or even non-preacy ones like mine) but with solid ENTERTAINMENT first whose message is buried for people to think about. D’Souza is needed, but as he admits he preaches to the choir.conservative $$ guys need to invest. Again and again, because not every film is a hit. But so far they still don’t get Breitbart’s Law; Politics is downstream of culture.
It’s got to drive the left insane that they own the news media, entertainment and academia but still can’t get back in power. Someday one of them might actually stumble across the realization that it’s they that are the problem. That person will probably be killed.
