Default Media

The frontline enemy of the just ,free and truly aware:- The Mainstream Media (MSM)

Take for example the standard offerings of free to air TV .

I note such "programming" as "Customs" , "Cops" , "Underbelly" the nightly "news" , and many others all focusing exclusively on low level crime , not unlike slave/serf radio program on the "plantations".
Designed solely to self manage the serfs , keeping them "looking down" for crime and corruption rather than "looking up" for high level crime and corruption. ( don't bore me with the exceptions , they surface for quite separate reasons, and do not detract from this general point)
Take for example the bankster bail out :
"Banksters lose your money , then take your money in the bail out , refusing to disclose where it's going , whilst lending back your money at interest !"

But still the sheep sleep.
Why ?
Because they are mind controlled , conditioned, programmed, by schooling , media and the imposed zeitgeist, to barely raise a whimper.

Low level crime? Usually they deal with the murders of several people. How is that low level?

The mainstream media's ability to sway and even alter the perception of people was lost a while ago due to the internet age.
Our own Government has looked into controlling this form of media with the whole cleenfeed debacle but hopefully with enough public backlash, will fail.

Mainstream media as it stands is deeply flawed and no longer seems to be as viable as it once was. Consider the Oztam Ratings system. The TV habits of a few thousand homes are recorded and are supposed to represent every cross section of Australian TV and media viewing.

I do not for one minute believe 2+million people tune into Today Tonight each night, this sort of media is insulting to everyone.

A couple years ago one of the big 3 stations had technical difficulties and viewers only got static on that channel for about 2 hours. During this 2 hour period one of the hospital shows like All Saints was supposed to be shown. Even though there was only static during this period, the ratings showed that viewership was only slightly down from the regular audience for that show.

This means either a heck of a lot of people simply leave their televisions on and go prepare dinner, and other activites/chores - or the ratings themselves are inaccurate.

I will allow you to contemplate on the concept of relativism at this juncture.

Ax, I told you - if you want to keep posting here, you have to take your meds everyday!

Spoiler for For Axiom's Eyes Only:

The Chaser Boys pretty much sum up Today Tonight and A current Affair really well Ironic that the Chasers War on Everything was on the Government funded ABC Network.

For those that still believe that their mainstream media adequately informs them , consider why not a murmur on the avian flu virus found in vaccines scandal(refer to "vaccines" thread) ?
