This is why we make an effort to get through America's "Information Berlin Wall" constructed by the "State Controlled Media" to get uncensored information on a worldwide basis about Obama, etc. to FR and fellow Americans as a result. It is kind of pathetic, but it must be done.

The operational template, oddly enough, is exactly the same as getting Western information and ideas into East Germany in the 1960s. If we can bypass the US MSM, then bypass it we must.

In that sense, FR is a kind of "Radio Free Europe" of our time.

Very well stated.

I always prided myself on having a blend of intellectual and “street” brains. I misread the power of the media, and under estimated the intellectual laziness of the average American.
