It infuriates me to think about just how much the media is responsible for the destruction of our Republic and way of life over the past several decades.

The purposeful non-vetting of Obama and his very controversial and shaky background is a legacy that should forever tarnish these partisans in journalist clothing.

As we slip into the darkness we can primarily blame not Liberals and Leftists; not even big government statists, but rather the media talking heads, Hollywood superstars, and the rest that have led the rank and file Americans down the propaganda path all these many years.

Completely agree. I think many people overlook the incalculable damage the corrupt MSM and Hollywood has done. Together I think they are more responsible for our precipitous decline than almost any other single factor.

Their lies. Their ommission of facts. Their deceit. Their ongoing propaganda. It is all now coming to the inevitable destructive conclusion. And, as the alternative media rises, the corrupt MSM becomes ever more openly partisan and shrill as they seek to blunt the impact of the alternative media.

Communist Goals (1963) http://www.uhuh.com/nwo/communism/comgoals.htm

15. Capture one or both of the political parties in the United States.
17. Get control of the schools. Use them as transmission belts for socialism and current Communist propaganda. Soften the curriculum. Get control of teachers’ associations. Put the party line in textbooks.
18. Gain control of all student newspapers.
20. Infiltrate the press. Get control of book-review assignments, editorial writing, policymaking positions.
21. Gain control of key positions in radio, TV, and motion pictures.
