Corporate hacks write what they're told to control the people.

They then hand each other Pulitzer prizes for whoever has managed to distract and deceive the most people from what's really going on.

In the 1890's Joseph Pulitzer & William Randolph Hearst competed with each other as to who could tell more lies & produce the most fake headlines and pictures to sell more papers.

This became known as "Yellow Journalism" which is the model used by WaPo, NYT & all major MSM today

Total lies and fabrications were made up by Pulitzer & Hearst such as "American women being strip searched by the Spanish" to sell more papers & start the Spanish-American War of 1898.

The exact same methods have been used to sell EVERY war since with "Nothing But Lies".

The USS Maine was sunk by a boiler explosion which exploded the munitions on board, in Havana Harbor in 1898.

But as with every other American war, the intended enemy was falsely demonized with lies in the media to get public opinion on board for the intended war.

Pulitzer

Operation Mockingbird was set up by the CIA in the 1950's to take total control of the media by planting false stories and pushing pure lies for whatever agenda the Corporate Elites wanted pushing.

This has now massively expanded to control EVERY significant media org.

Pulitzer

A classic example of pure Yellow Journalism and the CIA controlling the media is the #Russiagate Hoax exemplified by the totally ridiculous Madcow @Maddow & her evidence free insane delusions, now debunked by Mueller.

CNN is just as bad.

Pulitzer

For over 100 years the Corporate Media has been the whore of Financial Elites and Big Money Corporate interests.

They are NOT going to start telling you any of the truth any time soon.
In fact the situation is getting much worse.

Pulitzer Prizes are awarded to the best whores.

ACTUAL journalists who dare to expose serious US gov crimes are "Suicided" - Gary Webb, thrown into jail - Julian Assange, or have a "car accident" - Serena Shim or Michael Hastings.

While propaganda hacks get paid $m's a year to deliberately lie & brainwash the public

Pulitzer

The modern system of Propaganda, Thought Control and Brainwashing was developed by Edward Bernays, the nephew of Sigmund Freud, in the 1920's.

Bernays' methods were adopted for the Nazis by Goebbels in the 1930's & continued by US Corporations, gov, & CIA, after WW2.

Pulitzer

Bernays' method needs a large number of seemingly disparate sources all telling the same basic lie in order to "reinforce" the propaganda & disinformation intended to be propagated.

In current parlance this is "Amplifying the Message" used by MSM in #Russiagate hoax.

Pulitzer

Goebbels, using Bernays' (i.e. American Corporate) propaganda methods, was able to persuade a large proportion of the German population to support starting WW2 and attack Russia.

EXACTLY the SAME methods have been used to start every American War for the last 120 years

Pulitzer

In order to fully realize Bernays vision of total Corporate control via propaganda, it was necessary to reduce America's hundreds of independent small papers & TV stations of the 1970's into a Monopolistic Cabal of Control by a handful of Oligarchs & Corporations.

Pulitzer

Bill Clinton was bankrolled by the Corporate Oligarchy in 1992 to:
Consolidate Mass Media ownership for the Oligarchy
Expand the power of the Big Banks
Impoverish the Middle Classes with NAFTA & Chinese entry to WTO
Legitimize Wars of Aggression by bombing Serbia
