Well-known facts about journalism’s long love affair with Socialism/Communism began in earnest in the early 1930s:
Taqiyya the Liar is himself a Communist; so I never believed the crapola that he and the media were mortal enemies. Every time I turn on the TV —— up pops the Chicago sewer rat lying like hell about issue after issue as though every betrayal is a great victory for Americans. It makes no sense to think of him and the media as enemies.
NOTE: The sewer rat opening diplomatic relations with Cuba is twofold. Communism in Cuba and Venezuela both get a lifeline. Venezuela no longer has to subsidize Cuba’s Communist economy the way the defunct Soviet Union once did. American taxpayers will assume the burden.
Consider this: As far back as the 1920s, the KGB began recruiting spies:
Communists began infiltrating America’s institutions before and during WWII. When WWII ended starry-eyed young Communists quickly found positions, and advancement, in the institutions that had been previously infiltrated; most notably colleges and universities, federal bureaucracies, newspapers, magazines, and the movie industry regardless of the so-called Hollywood Blacklist that, in effect, sacrificed a small handful of writers, actors and directors who actually were Communists.
In the 1960s, television became Communism’s greatest success story not only in network news divisions, but in the propaganda value of entertainment shows. Hollywood’s propaganda activities paled by comparison to the stuff fictional television shows achieved. Example: Fictional TV shows successfully planted the ideas that there is such a thing as International law, and that the United Nations was America’s friend. Hollywood never came close to selling the garbage, nor could Hollywood sell the sewerage that TV sold in cop shows, lawyer shows, and doctor shows.
TV did not have to beat the audience over the head with collectivist messages. TV simply wore the audience down with one or two lines of dialogue inserted in fictional plots that were watched by millions night after night, year after year. All of it was paid for with tax deductible advertising dollars.
NOTE: Environmental garbage began to be inserted in dialogue in TV shows after the Soviet Union imploded. Movies made about the environment followed TV’s messages. Today, you cannot escape the global warming fraud, or the people who attach every money-making con to the environment. Hustling reparations for Third World parasites is so ludicrous the Washington Post should be ashamed of itself:
And what in hell is an Earth Institute? And why must taxpayers pay for it? And who decided that taxpayers had to pay professors like Gerrard to invent harebrained political schemes to loot the public purse?
Forgive me. I got carried away. Don’t answer the questions. The Washington Post publishing Gerrard is what freedom of the press is all about.
Numbers
I am guessing that the number of American moviegoers settled around 20 percent after TV. I believe that that number is now down to about 10 percent, or approximately 30 million Americans. When it was 20 percent, moviegoers usually saw two or three theater movies a week. Renting movies for viewing on a VCR probably increased the number to four or five movies a week where the percentage remained with DVD rentals.
On the other hand, 90 percent of Americans watched TV at least 5 nights a week including moviegoers and renters. There is no guessing how much the computer cut into both TV and movie theaters. That percentage among younger Americans who do NOT watch TV or movies is anybody’s guess. Older Americans still watch TV and movies, but that audience is dying off.
What does it all mean?
It is illogical to believe the media does not also harbor Communists while every federal bureaucracy, and every one of the armed services, is populated with Communists in high office.
NOTE: Communists and the global government crowd have the same objective; totalitarian government administered by the United Nations. As far as I am concerned they are one and the same.
The number of Communists in the media grew to a much larger percentage than journalism employed in the 1930s. It makes no sense to think that Communists would stop at gaining control of the other important institutions and not focus on gaining control of one of the most powerful tools necessary for transforming and controlling a country.
NOTE: I’ve often said that Communist revolutionaries go after TV transmitters before they go after armories. In previous centuries controlling the children was the first objective of every religion. By the mid-twentieth century it became obvious that controlling what children were taught dropped to second behind controlling the media. If controlling media in today’s world is more important than is controlling the weapons, it follows that children will follow the media in importance.
A substantial number of journalists still work toward advancing Socialism/Communism.
Interestingly, Socialists/Communists blamed, and still blame, robber barons for everything wrong with world, yet they scream the loudest whenever they defend freedom of the press. As for the rest of us don’t fight for press barons, who are themselves robber barons, unless you own a printing press.
Finally, freedom of the press is the one Right I would NOT fight for should it be abolished. Communist countries, and dictatorships of every stripe, control their presses. In short: Worldwide journalism contributes absolutely nothing to individual liberties, limited government, or anything that is worth having. So I see no reason to fight for freedom of a press that is dominated by big government thinkers. More to the point, America’s press would not change the way it operates one bit in a full-blown Communist country.

More American journalists were involved in spying for the Soviet Union than was previously believed, according to new research published in the Journal of Slavic Military Studies.

Consider this: As far back as the 1920s, the KGB began recruiting spies:
The KGB used journalists because they were able to meet many people in different fields and could ask probing questions without sparking suspicion. In a 1941 report the KGB noted that many of its journalist spies were “highly developed intellectually and occupied high social positions.” They not only attended college in the 1920s and 30s when few Americans did, but they were accepted into the best universities. This allowed these eventual KGB recruits to mingle with fellow students who would go on to occupy senior posts in government with access to sought-after information.

Hustling reparations for Third World parasites is so ludicrous the Washington Post should be ashamed of itself:
Writing for the Washington Post, Michael B. Gerrard, a legal scholar at Columbia University’s Earth Institute, proposes that we should take in millions upon millions of refugees that will eventually be displaced by climate change. He said, “We ruined your country. Welcome to ours.” Playing on Emma Lazarus’ famous quote, he adds, “Give us your thirsty, your hot, your flooded masses.” Apparently carbon footprint taxes and wealth redistribution are not enough, we must adopt progressive social engineering of the planet.
