News isn’t based on fact anymore, it’s based on consensus. The media isn’t completely censored by its corporate sponsors or the government; it is also under a form of self-censorship

The American people not only don’t demand coverage of political wrongdoing and corporate crime, they seem to fear and despise coverage of it.

We were raised to believe that capitalism is the life-blood of this country. To suggest that this very same capitalism is killing our right to be informed citizen’s with the right to choose our own leaders sounds too much like a Marxist diatribe, even if it is the truth.

Our leaders will be financed by those that see it in their best interests to spend heavily on those that will not impede the agenda of business. No longer will we see bright upstarts on the political scene.

I guess that I believe that one day the American people will see exactly what kind of game that our government, the media and the military-industrial complex is playing.
