With talk of 'Journalist Licenses' and the latest Facebook purge of Alternative Media sources, we are heading down a very dark path. Looks like Big Brother and his big Corporate Media partners, are beginning to force their 'Approved' Media on us.
Any Media Outlet not willing to toe the Government/Corporate Media line, will be purged. Shades of the old Soviet Union and China. It's a very disturbing time. Is there anything we can do to halt this march towards Totalitarianism?
This week, the alternative media purge was boldly advanced in a coordinated effort to silence people who dissent from establishment views.
It’s just one more step toward a monopoly on information by those who hate freedom. At this rate, they’ll soon have unquestioned access to the minds of more than 2 billion people. And this should terrify everyone who wants to be free to question the status quo and to seek a wide range of information.
Hundreds of alternative media site administrators logged onto Facebook to discover that their accounts had been removed. Soon after, many of these sites and their writers found that their Twitter accounts had also been suspended.
Popular pages like The AntiMedia (2.1 million fans), The Free Thought Project (3.1 million fans), Press for Truth (350K fans), Police the Police (1.9 million fans), Cop Block (1.7 million fans), and Punk Rock Libertarians (125K fans) are just a few of the ones which were unpublished.
Why were these alternative media accounts removed?
The reason given doesn’t really add up...
Why The Coordinated Alternative Media Purge Should Terrify Everyone
