Corporate Media Propaganda - bump for later....

Sometimes, as in the case of Ilhan Omar’s corruption, the press openly attacks the investigative reporter (James O’Keefe) rather than finding the truth.

Pick any allegation/story regarding the Biden corruption. Replace “former Vice President Biden” with “former Vice President Cheney” and replace “Hunter Biden” with “Liz Cheney” ….

the 24/7 mediawhore feeding frenzy would register on the Richter scale

The Media Is Fueling America’s Information Crisis

The Ninth Commandment:

Thou shalt not bear false witness against thy neighbour. Exod 20: 16

This implies what the Bill of Rights actually - pace Justice Brennan and the entirety of the Warren Court in the 1964 New York Times Co. v. Sullivan - means. That libel and slander are evil, and are subject to secular as well as religious sanction.

Brennan’s argument that

". . . libel can claim no talismanic immunity from constitutional limitations. It must be measured by standards that satisfy the First Amendment”

would seem to apply w/ equal force to pornograpy laws as to libel laws - and that is actually true, in the sense that 1A actually was written to apply to neither.

What is “the” freedom of speech? Well, was freedom speech and press nonexistent in 1789? Of course not.

Why does the Bill of Rights consist of amendments rather than text in the body of the Constitution? The questions answer themselves. The Bill of Rights was added by amendment only because the Antifederalists were able to extract the commitment to do so from the Federalists. The Federalists sole point about rights was that they did not want rights to be an issue.

The first eight amendments enumerate rights which had historically been denied by tyrants.

Amendment 9

The enumeration in the Constitution, of certain rights, shall not be construed to deny or disparage others retained by the people.

and

Amendment 10

The powers not delegated to the United States by the Constitution, nor prohibited by it to the States, are reserved to the States respectively, or to the people.

express the true position of the Federalists - that the Constitution does not tacitly allow the destruction of any right. Of the people or of the states. “The” freedom of the press was freedom as it existed and as it limited by laws against libel. And by laws against pornography as well, BTW.

The conceit that journalists need not fear libel law has now come into full flower - we have monopoly journalism which functions as a propaganda organ.

What if the media is waiting for Joe to win to spring it, so we get President Kamala?
