Orwell had it mostly right in 1984. The part he screwed up was that it wasn't the government you had to worry about as much as it was the Fascist Corporations as the true enemy of the population.........

If you doubt that for a minute consider this FACT:

95+% of all news media in the United States, print, TV, Radio, Cable is owned and operated by Uber Rich Republicans........
AND also, the "Fairness Doctrine" was thrown out during the Reagan occupation of the White House.......

THE most ludicrous media statement of all time is Fox New's: "FAIR and BALANCED"........
