American journalism has become a freight train for the state.

Journalism in the US is at a dangerous crossroads. The contemporary Fourth Estate began going south in earnest as far back as 2004 when CBS news anchor Dan Rather was so consumed with a rabid hatred of then president GW Bush that he failed to authenticate falsified documents about Bush’s National Guard service.

Rather presented the phony documents on the CBS news program 60 Minutes aimed to smear Bush just before the presidential election. The disgraced news anchor was sent packing for insulting the intelligence of his viewers and embarrassing CBS with his delusions.

Unfortunately for Rather, the internet was well established by then and the fraud was quickly exposed. But “Derangement syndrome” has entered the national lexicon and in the ensuing fifteen years the intelligence of millions of Americans has been lowered to unprecedented levels while corrupted national media is bent, folded and mutilated to encourage people to ignore what they see and listen to what they’re told to feel.

As journalism in the US makes a dark shift from actual democratic, unbiased news gathering to Soviet-style, Deep-State propaganda dispensation, it’s obvious that the mission is to sink the observational intellect of the American people in much the same way it was in the former Soviet Union and remains in the Russian state.

While millions of Americans were still swooning over sycophantic journalistic praise of Barack Obama’s Cracker-Jacks-box birth certificate, his Deep-State operatives along with crooked national security agencies went all out in an underhanded coup attempt of an incoming president using bogus information from a foreign source (Christopher Steele) with falsified and unverified FISA Warrants. In the decades following Rather, journalism got worse.

The collective intelligence of the US population has dropped to such pathetic levels that today many cannot comprehend the basic precepts of the Electoral College. Cement dwelling urban populations could soon dictate centrally planned leadership to all the corners of the country.

The Orwellian practice of manipulating language to steer thought is well underway and journalism in the US has supplanted its purpose from a voice for the people to a propaganda freight train for the state. Trump’s election exposed this is all its glory; he threatens the state.

American journalism no longer functions to inform; it operates to control. The people are getting dumber and we are headed for a real mess because many can barely read the lines not between them.

I don't think the majority of people are getting dumber. I dare say most in China don't believe gov media except their own idiots. But in a free press sometimes the only choice is to let it run its course.
 
You're just mad that the media insists on reporting how corrupt The president is. He should probably quit giving them so much corruption to report.

More mad idiots suck up shit they want to hear VS thinking.

Most recent example is the leftist media giving Trudeau a blackface pass and calling it "brownface" and trying to make his actions OK.

Suck up, son.
 
The free press was supposed to be a check and balance on government, instead they have become government's propaganda ministry.

Don't call me son as if you have some sort of wisdom, you're the worst kind of idiot. You believe your own lies.

Why weren't Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama fully investigated and held to account for their abuses of power and corruption? occupied
That's why so many people are mad and fed up. If you allow Democrats to get a free ride, don't be surprised if opponents get the same. If all the people scream to put Democrats in jail, they shouldn't be surprised at calls to impeach Trump. Remember what you ask for comes back to you!

Fuck off, son.

So much of what the right obsesses over is just plain made up. How far do you think an investigation into a made-up story goes?

The press isn't the problem in the US; the complete lack of real leadership is the problem.
CBS & Dan Rather didn't try to smear Bush in 2004; Bush smeared himself by allowing his family's friends, the bin Ladens, and the Saudis, to perpetrate 9/11, and then cover that up by redacting 28 pages of the 9/11 report pertaining to guess who; the Saudis. It was also pretty classless for Bush to allow nearly 100 bin Laden family members to leave the US post 9/11 on private jets, all while the FAA had a four day long shutdown of US air space.

Bush was always a worthless POS & he always will be a worthless POS, and anyone that was dumb enuff to vote for Bush is also a worthless POS.
Bush smeared himself by going AWOL when he was the 'cocaine pilot' serving in the AANG.
Bush smeared himself so many times in his life, he never needed the help of CBS, nor Dan Rather, to make him look & smell like a smelly Texas turd.

American journalism is merely tracking the filth that dumb ass Americans elect, and when dumb ass Americans elect dumb ass candidates, of course the press will follow the carnage & eventually become a part of the problem.
Fact is, the press didn't start this crap; the failure of real leadership in this nation initiated the down fall of our nation.

I understand why many have no interest in voting.

If I was your son I would turn gay, get a black boyfriend and convert to Islam just for spite.

I don’t believe this is new. The MSM has been controlled by outside forces for a long time. The CIA admitted in the 70s, to having control of much of the MSM.

Gore Vidal said this years ago.
“The corporate grip on opinion in the United States is one of the wonders of the Western world. No First World country has ever managed to eliminate so entirely from its media all objectivity—much less dissent.”

We don't have a free press.

The media is tightly managed by the deep state and the radical internationist left.

Say Comrade, how did that whole "whistle blower" psuedo event work out for you Stalinists? Did you "get Trump?"

The free press was supposed to be a check and balance on government, instead they have become government's propaganda ministry.
Thus sayeth Josef Goebbels in the months before seizing control of the media in a newly-consolidated Nazi Germany.

So long as opposing views are represented by both channel-selection and by substantive content broadcast on a given channel, it's all still OK.


And, by the way, there are gullible Sheeple drinking the Kool-Aid on both Left AND Right sides of the aisle, eh?

Not the government, the party. The party press serves the democrat party and the goal of international Communism. This is why the corrupt fascist press has perverted "nationalism" into a pejorative.

Dunno, you're a liar with evil intent; I'd say that makes you worse.
