Fake News and How To Fight It: Lies of Omission


We are at war with the media, but more importantly, they are at war with us. By "we" I mean anyone who believes in the protections of the Constitution, who want to be left alone to live our lives without being constantly assaulted by our own government and the leftists; one group telling us how we are wrong one day and another group telling us how we are wrong the next day. But, all of it is driven by the media. It is the media that brings these issues to the national consciousness, who use the bully pulpit of television, radio and newspapers to beat us into submission. Worse, it is the media that withholds information from us about the government, about the destruction wrought by unfiltered immigration, about the usefulness of guns to reduce crime.

We are getting a warped message and have been for a long time, but it is different now. The media has been exposed as propagandists broadcasting the government line and making up its own news to convince "us" that we are warped and need straightening. It doesn't matter that most of us tuned out long ago. In fact, when the media started propagandizing (something I noticed in the early 80's) it fostered the alternative news that took root with the widespread use of the internet. They are responsible for the "fake news" they now have engaged in an all-out battle. It is "fake news," because it does not get its talking points from the government or special interest groups. Now, they want to censor these "fake news" websites.

The goals of the leftists are these: 1) bring the citizens under surveillance 2) disarm the population 3) propagandize the news 4) silence any opposition 5) execute the opposition. How far along are we? That's how bad we are losing the war. We cannot wait until step 5 to do something about it.
