I don't watch them and did not know the corporate media was banging the drums of war. How sad :(<br /><br />Their viewers are the ones who will send their sons and daughters. <br /><br />It appears a lot of the corporate owned media's viewers still believe these are news organizations. They do not realize they are owned by multinationals who manipulate/suppress all content to promote whatever agenda they want. For example, promote war for the military contractors (A Billion $ industry). <br /><br />There is a saying, "Give me control of the money (banks) and I care not who makes the laws." It could apply just as well to mass media, where 6 multinationals owns all the main media (TV and newspapers.) <br /><br />The younger generation appears much more critical of mass media. I can think of very few who watch "main stream" news. My guess is they have grown up with a "main stream" media that was already corrupt and obnoxious (unending advertising) where as my generation grew up with Watergate and individual reporters who were damn proud to expose corruption, not be part of it. <br /><br />My point being, we believed the media was there to protect us and expose corruption to help keep our Democracy somewhat honest. Growing up with that, we were slower than the younger generation to see the insidious change from courageous journalism to corporate agenda mouthpieces. <br /> <br />Other than that, I don't have and opinion. : ) <br />~Heidi Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
