I see so much reporting of the media that seems befuddled at how our media, and narrative, continually get fouled up. Everyone seems to think the bamboozlement is profit or ratings or goofball driven. Or that some Karmic Kismet just keeps getting in the way of the truth being told.
I am a long-time, very critical observer of Mass Media. I have no doubts that I am correct, but I see very little actual reporting on 1st Tier Alternative Media that ever echoes my diagnosis.


I think EJ Dionne and Rep. Kilroy are being naive.


I think almost everyone writing about "The Media" coverage is being naive.

This is not about ratings
This is not about profits
This is not about infantileism, about wanting to see fights and exciting stuff versus boring stuff

This is about control. The media hides much more than it digs up. Much more.
This is about defining perception, spinning reality, playing hide the salami with the truth.

Keeping us scared, confused, self-conscious, buying, reacting.
Corporate Media own our airwaves and the mass mind-control equipment, do you think they are not using it?
They aren't falling for old "Tricks" like Rep. Kilroy says.
They aren't covering noise and ignoring calm for the reason Mr Dionne says: Playing to the lowest common denominator and feeding our stupid love of a fight.

This is about control. This is about NOT LETTING a national movement of outrage  take root against our corporate-owned Legislators. This is about NOT LETTING a movement get started in favor of The People. This is about squashing a People's movement and replacing it with a fictitious one of Corporate parentage.


Yes, money is involved.
Do you know how much money is spent on Pharma and Health ads? Hospitals and HMO's?
And Corporate Media is basically IN BED with every other Corporate Sphere. They help broadcast the ads, messages, and wishes of ALL their customer/coporate/advertisers. But money is secondary.

If the do muckraking and expose' news coverage about how criminal these same Corporate Clients are, they will lose all their business. But frankly, they never really consider doing that so it is a moot issue.
They are all on the same team, against us.

Money is secondary. A by-product of owning the mass media. If you own all the microphones and transmitters and relays (because you talked the Government into GIVING you the airwaves for a promise to be nice - with the most powerful instrument on earth), the money will come. It will always come.

The Media is always going to do what All Corporations want, every time.
They are never going to come clean about what they are doing with OUR airwaves and our trust.
Hiding Corporate Malfeasance is Job One.
Since Corporate Malfeasance is pervasive and the root of most every problem that confronts us....that is a pretty big media disservice (crime) being perpetrated on a most massive scale.

The little man is their TARGET, their PREY. Not their customer. Not their friend.
