Study: Journalists Starting To Accept The Fact That Their Print Publications Will Eventually Fold
Half of journalists think the print publications (or TV/radio stations) they work for will eventually fold. That’s according to a new report by the Oriella PR Network. The report, Oriella’s Digital Journalism Study 2010, polled more than 770 journalists from Europe, the United States, and Latin America, and came to the conclusion that “journalists are gradually acclimatising to the pressures of juggling the demands of web and print media and, for the first time, view new media as an asset, not a hindrance, to news-gathering and presentation.” A few more highlights from the poll: * More than half of the journos polled think online media is far from being a profitable business model. * 44% of the journalists polled agreed that the number of print media outlets will shrink dramatically.. » read more
Corporate Media Discover Private Spies. In Other News, No WMD in Iraq
"The Nation" -- Stop the presses and call the government spokespeople back from Martha's Vineyard. The corporate media have discovered that the United States is radically outsourcing national security and sensitive intelligence operations. Cable news channels breathlessly report on the "groundbreaking," "exclusive" Washington Post series, Top Secret America, a two-year investigation by Dana Priest and William Arkin. No doubt there is some important stuff in this series. Both Arkin and Priest have done outstanding work for many years on sensitive, life-or-death subjects.. » read more

Anyone caught is subject to arrest, a $40,000 fine and prosecution for a federal felony crime.

Obama May Have His "Internet Kill Switch" To Control Internet Content
Obama May Have His "Internet Kill Switch" To Control Yesterday the Senate Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs Committee passed a bill to give Obama the power to shut down the internet for national security reasons. The bill is said to put limits on what the president can do unlike the Communications Act of 1934. But the fear is that the Obama Administration has not played by the rules so far, and what prevents him from stepping out of his boundaries and shut down parts of the internet that has negative articles concerning him and the Democratic Party. Obama has complained in the past about too much information on the internet. This could be the thing that he could use to punish those that report news about his administration and the Democratic Party.. » read more

the unknownuser. TRULY REMARKABLE I THINK IT IS REMARKABLE THAT WITHIN A WEEK OF TIGER WOODS CRASHING HIS ESCALADE, THE PRESS FOUND EVERY WOMAN WITH WHOM TIGER HAS HAD AN AFFAIR IN THE LAST FEW YEARS, WITH PHOTOS, TEXT MESSAGES, RECORDED PHONE CALLS, ETC. AND, THEY NOT ONLY KNOW THE CAUSE OF THE FAMILY FIGHT, BUT THEY EVEN KNOW IT WAS A WEDGE FROM HIS GOLF BAG THAT HIS WIFE USED TO BREAK OUT THE WINDOWS IN THE ESCALADE. NOT ONLY THAT, THEY KNOW WHICH WEDGE! AND EACH AND EVER DAY, THEY GIVE AMERICA MORE UPDATES ON HIS SEX-REHAB STAY, HIS WIFE'S PLANS FOR DIVORCE, AND HIS PLANS TO RETURN TO THE PRO-GOLF CIRCUIT. OBAMA HAS BEEN IN OFFICE FOR OVER A YEAR NOW, AND THIS SAME PRESS STILL CANNOT LOCATE OBAMA'S OFFICIAL BIRTH CERTIFICATE, OR ANY OF HIS PAPERS WHILE IN COLLEGE, OR HOW HE PAID FOR A HARVARD EDUCATION, OR WHICH COUNTRY ISSUED HIS VISA TO TRAVEL TO PAKISTAN IN THE 1980'S AS BARRY SORETORO AND EVEN MICHELLE OBAMA'S PRINCETON THESIS ON RACISIM.. » read more

The black art of news management
In his latest column for the New Statesman, John Pilger describes the "master illusions" which have formed the basis of black propaganda and provided "false flags" for political chicanery and for wars and atrocities, such as Iraq and the Israeli assault on the Gaza peace flotilla. How do wars begin? With a “master illusion”, according to Ralph McGehee, one of the CIA’s pioneers in “black propaganda”, known today as “news management”. In 1983, he described to me how the CIA had faked an “incident” that became the “conclusive proof of North Vietnam’s aggression”. This followed a claim, also fake, that North Vietnamese torpedo boats had attacked an American warship in the Gulf of Tonkin in August 1964. “The CIA,” he said, “loaded up a junk, a North Vietnamese junk, with communist weapons - the Agency maintains communist arsenals in the United States and around the world.. » read more
