Obama vs Ron Paul : both hold positions anathema to liberals.

[Uncle Joe]

84. Absolutely kudos to Congressman Cohen, but my point regarding the corporate media is legitimate.

All one needs do is watch the Sunday Morning talk programs to see the usual cast of characters continously touting the status quo within the narrow approved frame of the corporate media, or the debates, pundit discussion and primtime news broadcasts.

With the corporate media a tree falling in the forest is either ignored or described as something else entirely to the people.

I don't know if you recall but at one the time they brainwashed 70%+ of the people into beleiving Saddam Hussein was behind 9/11, never mind the facts, they had a frame or mindset to produce in order to sell a war based on lies, the same institution enabled Bush the Least to power.

Surely you don't believe the corporate media spent hundreds of millions if not billions of dollars over the past half century on psychology and marketing for nothing?

They gained great power in shaping public opinon, the corporate media know which Pavlov's Bell to ring in order to get the desired result, whether it be selling the people a product, candidate or just down the river.
