TV, Radio and now newspapers

Is this not scary? Manipulated news.



This is being sent to Guild activists.
Washington, D.C. -- The Communications Workers of America, its newspaper and broadcast sectors, and the American Federation of Television and Radio Artists expressed disappointment over the Federal Communications Commission's revisions to the newspaper-broadcast ownership rule. The changes will allow a single corporation to own both a broadcast and newspaper operation in the 20 largest media markets.
CWA and affiliates -- The Newspaper Guild-CWA and the National Association of Broadcast Employees and Technicians-CWA -- along with AFTRA, expressed strong concern that the FCC did not require that any merged newspaper-broadcast operation maintain separate newsroom and editorial staff, an addition that would have helped to ensure an independent editorial voice in communities. They also stressed that ensuring a diverse media is more critical than ever in today's environment and raised concerns about the impact of consolidation on competition, diversity of opinion and quality jobs.

We're in trouble now! They'll tell us only what they want us to hear and see. Well they pretty much do that anyway. Telling us Castro is evil when his people look at us like we are nuts. They have least have decent almost free health care.

Maybe Venezuela's Charvez likes Bush after all..maybe "the devil" seen was manipulated.

Remember that movie way back when in the eighties with Brenda Vocarro (mispelled) and James Bolen (Barbara Steinstein's husband. Where the USA faked a landing on the moon. It was all staged and then the participant were murdered so the secret wouldn't leak but Bolen's character got away and walked up to his own grave site. It was fabulous!

Another good movie is with Dustin Hoffman called "Wage the Dog" showing another staged war. It is fabulous. I think this was another 80's movie or maybe early 90's.

My point being..there is probably more of this manipulating of the news going on then what we really want to know about.

Like now the elections are taking presidence over the war in Iraq and government spending.
