Bill Clinton doesnt like all the misinformation and rumors floating on the Internet. And he thinks the United Nations or the U.S. government should create an agency to do something about it.
It would be a legitimate thing to do, Clinton said in an interview airing Friday on CNBC.
The agency, Clinton said, would have to be totally transparent about where the money came from and would have to be independent because if its a government agency in a traditional sense, it would have no credibility whatever, particularly with a lot of the people who are most active on the internet.
Lets say the U.S. did it, it would have to be an independent federal agency that no president could countermand or anything else because people wouldnt think you were just censoring the news and giving a different falsehood out, Clinton said.

No $h!# sherlock!
Gee, Bill, you never seemed concerned before about an “independent” truth squad to vet the continuous stream of lies spewed by the alphabet networks and the Marxist-media newspapers during the last 50 years? How come you’re all of a sudden worried about “truth in media”? Could it be because a totally egalitarian information exchange has arisen that isn’t owned and controlled by the elite, where everyman and everywoman can interchange information completely unfettered by gatekeepers?
Here’s how I see what you’re after:
1. “Independent” U.N. truth-squad. Perhaps with the same folks to run the squad that make up the U.N. human rights group. You know, Libya, Iran, Cuba, etc.
2. The UNTS could issue untruth alerts to alert people of fallacious information. They could review the 500 billion new web posting made each day and list all the ones they consider to be untrue.
3. If it turns out a person, persons, or web site receives to many demerits, uh, I mean untruth alerts, then they would be permanently banned from ever posting or hosting a post on the internet forever.
Does that sound about right, Bill?
Coming to your computer The Internet Czar.
More useless jobs for useless people. Grow the government, eh Commie Clintoon?
When you are a walking Liar and Con Artist like Slick Willie it must be very hard to surf the net and find one single article that is 100% good about his Dirtbag, Puss-Sack Ass.
Only the Commie from Kenya is saving him from being in the top 2 worst Presidents in history.
The control freaks HATE the Internet. It validates what corrupt politicians we have running our country. As far as I’m concerned the Internet is a sacred as free speech.
why oh why does this man think he’s relevant?
