Rectal Journalism or Psyop ... you decide

Postby Trifecta » Fri Jan 13, 2006 3:47 pm

I rarely visit Rense (obvious caveats apply) but this article struck a new cord. The author cliams he does not believ in conspiracy, yet has noticed that the level of bullshit spawing out of the trational medium monaliths is akin to his term rectal journalism. <br><br>Now all he need do is wake up and smell the putrid wiff of global fascism ... not long to go now.<br><br><!--EZCODE LINK START--><a href="http://rense.com/general69/rectal.htm" target="top">rense.com/general69/rectal.htm</a><!--EZCODE LINK END--><br><br><!--EZCODE QUOTE START--><blockquote><strong><em>Quote:</em></strong><hr>Additionally, it is quite troubling to look at how Rectal Journalism is substituting for coverage of truly important stories. For instance, as the media ramrodded the President's illegal wiretapping into a "he said, she said" story, fawned all over Newt Gingrich, and portrayed Democrats as deeply involved in the Abramoff scandal, they wholly ignored the Bush administration's declaration that the U.S.'s official foreign policy would be officially taking a radical turn. Also, in their entire coverage of the New York transit strike, they never once mentioned that workers were asking for a fraction of what New York city and state governments had just handed over to Goldman Sachs, the wealthiest investment bank in the world. And the list of uncovered stories goes on... <hr></blockquote><!--EZCODE QUOTE END--> <p></p><i></i>

Reporters aren't controlled. Only the idiots and the ones that know exactly what thy're supposed to report and not report are employed. If they grow brains, they get fired and blacklisted like Gary Webb.<br><br>That's how Rupert Murdoch works. He employed Topny Blair and look what a great job he's doing in Iraq. <p></p><i></i>
