this forum became the battleground of two camps (R and D) and it will stay that way at least to election day.i don't think anyone would ever pull someone from the other camp to his/her camp, and it probably is not the goal. (the goal is just to fight--meaning saying "we are better than you, and look at our horse (=candidate for president) MY goal is keeping Americans informed. Because our mainstream tv doesn't do its job well, i will be posting from time to time (= whenever there is something interesting on youtube...) alternative political news as YOU, THE PEOPLE should know what those who represent you are doing. RT "Breaking the set" talks about propaganda used by government, candidates etc http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NGYeG_pCCH0&feature=g-all-f |

Do you folks find CNN to be balanced / non-partisan? I read this article at Georgia Political review that suggest that 24-hour news channels led to the partisanship and that CNN is neutral. article: http://www.georgiapoliticalreview.com/avoiding-the-liberal-conservative-dichotomy garry |

All mainstream tv channels like FOX CNN MSNBC ABC CBS belong to some corporations and represents their interests, not the people's. tv uses propaganda to manipulate Americans like you and me and actually seeing their propaganda about RON PAUL opened my eyes only about year ago! Jon Stewart wanted to criticize FOX and showed how they lie to us, to me it was A real eye-opener. Then I could see others using the same tactics. CNN is NO exception... Ron Paul wants to get corporations off the government, and so corporations do their best to discredit him. That's why it has been so easy for RON PAUL supporter (like me) to see them using their tricks - if I was a neocon I would think FOX was fair, a liberal - MSNBS or CNN maybe too, I do not know now because I just stopped watching them. i want to know facts and make my own opinions- and they choose facts to make biased comments. here is Chris Greene 10/29 - so before Sandy... http://www.youtube.com/watch?NR=1&v=MEaGCHkTRpI&feature=endscreen |
