No, this isn't a repost, I thought it was when I first started reading it but this is recent because it covers an event as late as last week.

Here's the column you remember reading.

An Internet Fraud

I have been thinking for some time that, never before in history have so many people been so thoroughly convinced of so much information that is utterly false.

I attribute that to leftist disinformation on the Internet, and its further dissemination by useful idiots who seem actually to believe that crap.

If you wish to identify the font of leftist disinformation look no further than Big Journalism - all the members of the Associated Press. It is from the AP that the conceit of journalistic objectivity originated, and without some sort of such association that conceit would implode.

The internet can't hold a candle to the AP when it comes to "informing" sheeple.

“The internet can’t hold a candle to the AP when it comes to “informing” sheeple.”

You have a point there. Perhaps it’s just that the Internet is making it easir to see the smoke and hidden wires.

Hey, it Google. As long as the left is lying, cheating or whatever, it's A-OK with Google.

Let someone on the Right want to post something that is entirely true, it is immediately removed by the Google staff if it hurts the left wing at all. Google is a propaganda arm of the U.S. Socialist Democrat Party.
