The textbook method of propaganda is to start with a truth, warm up the masses with a half-truth, and then hit them over the head with an outright lie.

1. Truth: Mel Gibson earned a DUI today, and his father is an anti-semitic nutter.

2. Half-truth: Mel Gibson probably got taught some oddball stuff growing up.

3. The Outright Lie: Mel Gibson went on a violent, drunken anti-semitic tirade.

Methinks many here on this thread are passively or actively part of a propaganda campaign against Mel Gibson.....

Hope you're not including me in that broad brushstroke.

"3. The Outright Lie: Mel Gibson went on a violent, drunken anti-semitic tirade."

So you were there?

No one said it was violent. Mel is one crazy nut! He has tried to take himself out(suicide) and has terrible addictions and the worst of all of his addictions is his addiction to his warped religious viewpoint. He actually doesn't think his wife will be saved. The man has ISSUES.

SouthPark did a great episode of this nut-job.

And the passion of the christ was anti-semetic! Just the way he depicted the Jewish faces in certain scenes, making them to be devils and grotesque. WHATEVER!

Methinks someone is in love with Mel.

LOL...get real. Gibson aplogized for calling his anti-Semitic garbage. Fox News just ran a scrawl.

Some people are so caught up in hero worship ("Methinks many here on this thread are passively or actively part of a propaganda campaign against Mel Gibson...") that reality never makes an appearance in their lives.
