The Mainstream Media is America's greatest threat (vanity)

The Mainstream media is completely out of control. It only masqurades as news entity. It's bias against Trump is implicit. It ignores the growing Hillary Clinton body count of hackers and witnesses to her crimes. Hillary's email's show a very cozy and colluding relationship with the DNC. Republicans they just attack and scrutinize until they squeeze out something that might be perceived as negative. Crimes by Democrats against America and Americans' Liberty is routinely ignored.

The media never passes up a chance to put a happy face on a federal agency. Does it ask how the EPA's decrees might put people out of work. Did it criticize ObamaCare even though it's widely known as a failure? Is it concerned that Social Security is going bust? Does it care that America's armed forces are working with outdated weapons and equipment that is falling apart? Does it care that it is so very difficult for any individual to start a business, take his destiny in his own own hands and be self-sufficient, because the government taxes him to death or regulates his business into oblivion? Yeah, right. The media doesn't care about personal independence. Face it, the mainstream media is the People's greatest enemy. It is a full frontal assault on individual freedom by undermining our elections through implicit bias, spinning facts, ignoring concerns about Democrats and even covering up vital information about Americans' enemies.

Islam is a religion of peace? In what universe? Four hundred million shipped in the middle of the night to a terrorist government is no big deal to the media? The mainstream media is enemy number one. The lies are a constant stream, an unending flow of misinformation and brainwashing 24/7 on multiple channels. The threat of the media needs to be taken more seriously than any other threat, even terrorism, because the media has weakened America and turned us against each other through its lies all while supporting America's enemies.

Tucker Carlson: the Sad State of Modern Journalism

Criticizing the state of modern journalism, Tucker Carlson told AIM that journalists’ obsequious behavior, blatant bias and monolithic worldview have compromised the integrity of the nation’s fourth estate.

Carlson, a member of the Fox News team and a veteran journalist who co-founded the Daily Caller, asserts that many journalists bask in the presence of “the powerful” and are “…afraid to challenge anybody in power.”

“That’s kind of exactly the opposite of what you want. I mean the whole reason that journalists have a special kind of place in American society is because they’re entrusted with this job to kind of keep the powerful honest and to speak on behalf of the population and the second they go over to the other side and start sucking up to politicians, for example, is the second they’ve betrayed that charge.”

Questioned about the media’s election coverage Carlson opined, “I don’t think by and large they have been covering it, they’ve been advocating on behalf of one candidate against another.”

He explained that regardless of the election’s outcome, the media’s advocacy has destroyed its claim to objectivity.

Pointing out that a conflict of interest will arise if Trump wins and the largely anti-Trump media must report on his presidency, he said, “ … how are they gonna cover that, the administration? Can they? Haven’t they discredited themselves?”

“By the way,” he continued, “if Hillary wins, same thing. They’ve been working for her election and now they’re in charge of telling us what her administration is doing, can we trust them with that? I don’t think so.”

Condemning the practice of journalists who air their opinions on social media accounts, Carlson noted the corrosive effect this has on the public’s trust as they can easily discover a journalist’s political leanings.

Carlson says that while he values diversity, within the modern field of journalism “ … everybody has the same experience, they’re all from the same world, they all have the same assumptions, they all went to the same schools.”

He described journalism school as an “indoctrination center” that perpetuates the lack of diversity of thought in the media industry.

” … journalism school is just another sameness factory that pumps out people with identical opinions, and by the way, it’s only accessible to a certain kind of person — the exact kind of person we don’t need any more of in journalism — affluent, entitled, activist.”

Carlson believes journalists should seek the truth, “even if it leads them into uncomfortable places and especially if it leads them to places they didn’t expect to arrive … that’s what I thought journalism was, pursuit of what’s true, of accuracy, but not just accuracy, of truth.”

The Mainstream Media is America's greatest threat

Of this I have been trying to convince people for decades.

ISIS is not our worst threat. The Taliban is not our worst threat. Russia is not our worst threat.

Our worst threat is the control of information that is being implemented by what we refer to as "the Mainstream Media".

The media people have been manipulating elections. They have deliberately undermined the process by which a representative democracy can function by rigging the system.

They have rigged the system by how they control the information which the American public is permitted to see. They spend weeks hammering on Republican candidates and they *REFUSE* to make the public aware of Democrat Scandals, Corruption, or policy disasters. (The socialist failure of Venezuela would be constantly hammered upon in an objective media.)

Our party, and our movement *SHOULD* have been trying to destroy this existing media monopoly with fire. We should have been carpet bombing these crony media institutions with every power we could bring to bear within the force of the law.

We should have been turning our guns on the financial and control structures of these vile institutions instead of letting them get away with their propaganda.

We need to start attacking the media itself, and we need to scare the sh*t out of them. We need to send them to prison, and we need to let them know that we are going to work very hard to insure that they get put behind bars for attempting to rig elections.

It's time to quit pussyfooting around with these people and start hurting them in every legal way possible.

Absolute brainwashing tool....to destroy critical thinking in the masses.

All the Founders knew that without a Free Press—which promotes ONLY THE TRUTH (as ALL Just Laws have to do), there is no ability for Free Will (choice).

The Hegelian Dialectic was set up in early 1900 to control all main news outlets, radio, etc., as the technology was put into EVERY house so lies could be repeated over and over so Lies would become “truth”.

Now—we have to throw out most everything we “learned” (were programmed) because it is all lies. When our foundation of “knowledge” is lies-—we know nothing and unable to correct the direction to hell.
