»US media: Worse than Hitler's propaganda machine?«







Is the US media biased beyond belief? Here a few key figures of something that one could describe as US propaganda machine:

fair.org (Fairness and Acuracy in Reporting) analyzed 2 weeks of TV media coverage (ABC, CBS, NBC, PBS) during the hot Iraq debate phase (30.Jan.03 - 12.Feb.03)

From approx. 400 guests approx. 270 are USAnians, 200 work(ed) for the government/military. Only 1(!) has slight doubts regarding the war.

But even after this clearly biased Iraq coverage people-press.org published a report which shows an astonishing result: 45% of USAnians think the media was too liberal

And you don't think perhaps that some of those Americans might have worked for the Government?

In which case they would be in both groups.Very Happy

US propaganda is different...



Because this propaganda is aimed against war. The us left is trying to make americans hate americans. Nazis were taught to hate everyone different. We're taught to think that everyone else is right. It's uncool to be an american these days.
