EXACTLY. This statement is not only 100% true but vital to comprehend:

The leaders of the movement in the US to impose more corporate and state censorship on the internet - to make the internet less free and more subject to centralized control - are employees of media corporations who have been given the job title "journalist."
Surreal and twisted.
Surreal and twisted.
The subtext and often explicit message of virtually every article in the corporate media about anger over Facebook is that Facebook's principal sin is that they have not censored more political speech, and their salvation lies only in censoring more content that offends liberals.
The US epicenter of the repressive and toxic movement to destroy the free internet and impose more centralized control over political speech:
* The tech "reporting"unit of the NYT
* The "disinformation" team of NBC
* The "media reporting" sector of CNN (and CNN generally).

* The "disinformation" team of NBC
* The "media reporting" sector of CNN (and CNN generally).
Most of the digital outlets that purport to report on Silicon Valley -- HuffPost, BuzzFeed, Gizmodo, Vice, Vox, Daily Beast -- copy and parrot these larger corporate outlets in their infinite craving for more online censorship.
They're just followers. The leaders: NYT, NBC, CNN.

The campaign centered on this FB "whistleblower" is financed and coordinated by the same handful of billionaires who have been seeking to control the internet for years.
It's a giant scam to create a climate where people want *criminal* sanctions for allowing "disinformation"

The history of human intellectual debate is arguing over what is true and false. That's what free debate is for: a core enlightenment value. These billionaires are so hubristic they think those debates should be replaced by Truth Commissions they own. That's what this is about.
This scam of the FB "whistleblower" and her billionaire patrons is perfectly timed for the debate in the UK over a bill to *criminalize those who allow "disinformation" and "extremism" to be heard, determined by these billionaires. Right & left in unison:
