The Disinformation Media

By Mike Straw

A frightening report by the Commission on Freedom of the Press stated, “The owners and managers of the press determine which person, which facts, which version of the facts, and which ideas shall reach the public.”

Residents of socialist countries are accustomed to getting false messages from government and media.

We’d better get used to it too.

If you haven't noticed, our “leadership” (“government,” disinformation media, forced “education,” “government”-controlled business) is thoroughly corrupt and social fascist leaning.

Substitute private for public monopoly, backed by “government” power, and you'll get the picture.

The disinformation media are unindicted co-conspirators in the lethal assault against American values.

Their insufferable posturing about remaining “neutral,” reporting “objectively,” is just so much hogwash, as evidenced by this seventy-two-point type headline in the malicious social fascist Denver Post: “GUN KILLED BLAGG.”

Really? All by itself?

Or a recent headline decrying the Washington area domestic terrorism, “Veteran and Youth Charged in Deaths,” not, “ Radical Muslim and Illegal Alien Charged in Assassinations.”

Why ?

On January fourth 2004 in San Diego California, a robber wearing a dark coat with hood and scarf pulled over his head arrogantly walked into the North Park Denny's restaurant on El Cajon Boulevard, pulled an illegal firearm and demanded cash.

A courageous customer who attempted to stop him was brutally pistol-whipped after the threat tried to shoot the brave patron and the illegal firearm misfired.

The insidious evil of the social fascist elitists is without limit.

On December nineteenth 2003 in Houston Texas, three illegally-armed black men and a black woman all between nineteen and twenty-five years old burst into the Denny's restaurant in the 7700 block of Veterans Memorial at about three A.M., wearing ski masks or hoods.

After demanding wallets and money from terrified customers and employees, the robbers viciously shot at an innocent man's vehicle pulling up as they left.

Since October thirtieth 2003, the gang has stormed nine taquerias and the Denny's, illegally armed with shotguns, pistols and knives, the robbers have illegally beaten, shot at and stabbed even cooperative victims, and the number of these sadistic assaults is escalating.

Investigator Roger Chappell confided, "They are being very brutal. They are injuring people inside these restaurants. Whether (the victims) are complying or not makes no difference. It looks to us like (victims) are doing what they're required to do... but they're still being [illegally] beaten with the weapons. In one incident, we had two who were [brutally] stabbed."

On December fourteenth 2003 in Brooklyn New York, hardworking Domino's Pizza delivery driver Valery Pazdenkov, fifty-six, who immigrated to the u. S. in 1996, was illegally shot to death after submissively relinquishing the paltry thirty dollars he possessed after dropping off a pizza to regular customer Farraz Hussain, nineteen.

"He was just one of your model employees. If we were in a jam or if someone didn't show up, he'd come right in," related manager Manny Acquafredda.

Van Carney, coldhearted director of Domino's laughable “security,” arrogantly refused to allow the disarmed victim to justly protect his life under pain of firing out of fear of liability, but instead willingly offered a reward, literally blood money, for the murderer.

On July twenty-eighth 2003 in Carmi Illinois, the Pizza Hut at 1708 West Main Street, was invaded through the rear door around 11:21 P.M., as a condition white employee was cleaning up after the eatery closed, by masked armed robbers displaying an illegal shotgun and pistol, fleeing in a Dodge Intrepid belonging to a hapless employee.

Impotent mercenary proxy-guardian “police” couldn’t prevent the crime, weren’t there to stop it, failed to catch the armed robbers, and are now offering a pittance as a bribe for you to do their job for them.

In a 1999 robbery of a Pizza Hut in Arizona where the disarmed victims were illegally shot and killed, the grieving families were cunningly misguided by their evil social fascist lawyers not to justly go after the predatory criminal who illegally perpetrated the heinous crime, but instead, following the maxim of greed, “follow the money,” sought to illicitly punish the innocent manufacturer of the illegally abused inanimate object!

On July thirty-first 2000 in the violent south San Diego California neighborhood of Nestor, innocent Charles Morris the Fourth was illegally beaten, stabbed and had his throat sadistically slit at Victoria's Taco Shop as employees merely stood by and did nothing.

Morris was peacefully sitting on the hood of his car when Richard Cuevas, a documented member of a Nestor street gang, pulled up in a car with another man.

Cuevas angrily confronted Morris, then unnecessarily punched him.

A fistfight ensued, during which Morris ran into the restaurant and pleaded for a defensive knife to preserve his life.

He grabbed one from the kitchen and ran outside. Cuevas illegally stabbed Morris twice.

Morris staggered across the street, where Cuevas pursued him, illegally stabbing him several more times and slashing his throat.

The employees claimed to be “afraid” and “didn’t want to be stabbed or beaten.”

One also said he didn’t want to call mercenary proxy-guardian “police” because he was an illegal immigrant and -shades of Kitty Genovese -“didn’t want to get involved.”

The San Diego-based fourth District Court of Appeal reinstated Morris’s lawsuit against the shop owner, Silvino De La Torre, ruling the employees had a duty to take "reasonable steps in response to the ongoing criminal conduct."

Some advocates of extremist victim disarmament concede that it won’t disarm predatory criminals, but they nevertheless favor it in the irrational belief that disarming law-abiding unorganized Militia members would somehow be in itself good.

Their belief seems to rely heavily on statistically-rare disinformation media accounts of suicidal or outlandishly careless legal defensive firearm owners shooting themselves or loved ones.

Such advocates can glibly reel off disinformation media stories of untrained, inexperienced “children” or adults killing themselves with improper mindsets in foolish firearms “accidents” or shooting each other in moments of “temporary frenzy.”

In using argument by anecdote, the advocates are aided by the fiendish disinformation media, which sensationalizes violence. The sensationalism and selectivity of the disinformation media lead readers to predictably false conclusions.

One poll showed that properly-frightened sheep believe homicide takes more lives annually than diabetes, stomach cancer, or stroke; in fact, strokes alone take ten times as many lives as homicides. Anecdotes rarely settle policy disputes, though.

A cool-headed review of the facts debunks the Chicken Little scare tactics of extremist victim disarmament advocates.

In the 2004 election, one national news anchor was sufficiently motivated to attempt to influence the election’s outcome by proffering forged documents in a phony story that ate weeks of headlines, stubbornly clinging to the fabrication long after the rest of the media had demonstrated the documents as patently false, even bringing forth the forger’s family to refute the absurd claims.

In the 2000 election, over ninety percent of the so-called “independent” disinformation media, when surveyed, candidly revealed that they planned on voting for the far-left fringe candidate who, like Hitler’s “Mein Kampf,” had authored his apocalyptic vision of evil social fascism, “Earth in the Balance.”

According to Doctor Brandon Centerwall and reported in the Journal of the American Medical Association on June tenth 1992, the introduction of TV in the 1950s caused, fifteen years later, a subsequent doubling of the homicide rate.

That is, long-term childhood exposure to violent content without depicting accompanying dire consequences for such violence is a causal factor in approximately half of the homicides committed in the u. S. annually.

In other words, if TV had never been developed, there would today be ten thousand fewer murders, seventy thousand fewer rapes, and seven hundred thousand fewer aggravated assaults each year in the u. S. The evidence of this is clear.

In every nation that’s introduced TV, the death toll has exploded.

From 1957 to 2000, the u. S.’s rate of serious assaults per capita has risen by a factor of five.

From 1962 to 2000, Canada’s by a factor of four.

From 1977 to 1999, Norway and Greece’s by a factor of five.

From 1977 to 1999, Australia and New Zealand’s by a factor of four.

From 1977 to 1999, Sweden, Austria, and France’s by a factor of three.

From 1977 to 1999, Belgium, Denmark, England, Wales, Germany, Hungary, the Netherlands, Scotland, and Switzerland’s by a factor of two.

The single common denominator in each instance? TV.

The American Psychological Society responded to the wealth of readily available information linking disinformation media violence and teen violence: “The evidence is overwhelming. To argue against it is like arguing against gravity.”

The California senate, in a resolution against disinformation media violence said, “In a 1995 study, the American Academy of Pediatrics stated that of all the causes of violent crime in America, [disinformation] media violence is ‘the single most remediable factor.’ And [social fascist disinformation] media executive Ted Turner concedes, ‘TV violence is the single most significant factor contributing to violence in America…’”

A study found that the average TV-viewing child might witness more than ten thousand violent murders and one hundred thousand acts of violent aggression by age ten, without one explanation as to why such acts are unacceptable to society, and their consequences.

How does the disinformation media defend itself against such serious charges?

Michael Eisner, CEO of the vast Disney disinformation empire droned, “We have no obligation to make history. We have no obligation to make art. We have no obligation to make a statement. To make money is our objective.” It must be his personal objective.

The entire corporation’s profits are evenly divided between Eisner and the rest of the employees: ninety percent (three hundred million dollars annually) to him, the scraps to the peons who actually do the work.

Noam Chomsky, M.I.T. professor of linguistics, prolific author and U.S. foreign policy critic explains, “[The corporate mass-media] serve to divert the unwashed masses and reinforce the basic social values: passivity, submissiveness to authority, the overriding virtue of greed and personal gain, lack of concern for others, fear of real or imagined enemies, et cetera

The goal is to keep the bewildered herd bewildered. It’s unnecessary for them to trouble themselves with what’s happening in the world. In fact, it’s undesirable -if they see too much of reality they may set themselves to change it.”

Eisner may be the worst example, pushing Disney for ever more blatantly propagandizing fare specifically directed at our impressionable children such as “Iron Giant (“killing is bad. Guns kill!” The people were endangered by a cowardly “government” agent)” and “Tarzan,” where inanimate objects are immorally taught to be the problem, and relegating those objects to the hands of an elite few by force is the only solution.

Disinformation media TV programs like the PBS tripe “Dora the explorer” harangue American children how to slavishly respond to orders from their future oppressors in their own language -and you’re paying for it.

What’s the intellectual level of these elitist self-appointed dictators?

Billionaire Ted Turner, husband of Viet Nam war traitor Jane Fonda worries, “Nuclear war would really set back cable.”

The arrogance of the disinformation media makes that of immoral politicians pale in comparison: a TV station manager of a Murdoch/News Corporation-owned TV station in Florida growled, “We paid three billion dollars for these television stations. We will decide what the news is. The news is what we tell you it is.”

A two-year study by the Media Research Center concluded that disinformation media TV reporters are overwhelmingly opposed to Second Amendment rights.

Russia has two well-known newspapers, Pravda, meaning "truth,” and Izvestia, meaning "news," which explains the Russian saying, "There is no news in the Truth and no truth in the News," and the quote from Walter Lippmann, "The news and truth are not the same thing."

In the words of Joseph Pulitzer, “A cynical, mercenary, demagogic press will produce in time a people as base as itself.”

According to Richard Salant, “Our job is to give people not what they want, but what we decide they ought to have.”

CNN's Chief News Executive, Eason Jordan, confessed to manipulating the news through withholding and other means.

Dennis Cauchon (whose name means “pig”), of disinformation media USA Today admits, “Most reporters are very sympathetic to [extremist victim disarmament] agendas and will skew or lie outright about facts to promote them.”

John Swinton, managing editor of the New York Times declared, “There is no such thing, at this date of the world’s history, in America, as an independent press. You know it and I know it. There is not one of you who dares to write your honest opinions, and if you did, you know beforehand that it would never appear in print. I am paid weekly for keeping my honest opinion out of the paper I am connected with. Others of you are paid similar salaries for similar things, and any of you who would be so foolish as to write honest opinions would be out on the streets looking for another job. If I allowed my honest opinions to appear in one issue of my paper, before twenty-four hours my occupation would be gone. The business of the journalists is to destroy the truth, to lie outright, to pervert, to vilify, to fawn at the feet of Mammon, and to sell his country and his race for his daily bread. You know it and I know it, and what folly is this toasting an independent press? We are the tools and vassals of rich men behind the scenes. We are the jumping jacks, they pull the strings and we dance. Our talents, our possibilities and our lives are all the property of other men. We are intellectual prostitutes.”

In the March/April 1982 issue of the Columbia Journalism Review, journalist Bill Moyers said, "If you think there is freedom of the press in the united States, I tell you there is no freedom of the press...They come out with the cheap shot. The press should be ashamed of itself. They should come to both sides of the issue and hear both sides and let the American People make up their minds."

That award-winning photo of the “starving refugees” in Srebrenica was actually taken with the photographer on the inside, and all the so-called “prisoners” were on the outside looking in!

The once-honest Associated Press has treacherously adopted the word “militia” -which the American Heritage Dictionary of the English Language defines as: “an army composed of ordinary citizens ... subject to call for service in an emergency” -to cunningly refer to Palestinian terrorist groups such as Hamas, Islamic Jihad and the Al Aqsa Martyrs' Brigades, but they certainly couldn’t be accused of attempting to impose a word-picture in your head whenever you see that particular hijacked politically-correct buzzword mentioned, like the equally innocent term, “gay.”

Another account from the Associated Press purposely omits the part about the guys subduing the threat with their own legal defensive firearms: "Todd Ross, thirty, of Johnson City Tennessee, was among the students who were outside when Odighizuwa (the threat) left the building. Ross said the suspect was holding his hands in the air and dropped the [illegal firearm] at his prompting."

The story conveniently failed to mention that the "prompting" was done with the business end of a legal defensive firearm.

One would have to go out of his way not to report that a legal defensive firearm saved lives at Appalachian School of Law.

I guess the truth is too politically incorrect to be printed, but outright lies aren’t: on March fifth 2004, an ignorant boob at Newsday penned that AK-47s are used by the u. S. military.

He didn’t mean by special forces on certain missions, he meant by the common infantry soldier, every day.

How can someone who makes the salary of a large mainstream daily columnist be that stupid? Or is he?

Apparently, it doesn't fit some of the social fascist elitist reporters' agenda -an agenda to rid this country of legal defensive firearms. That's really what all this comes down to.

If there weren’t a concerted agenda on the part of many in the disinformation media to rid the United States of legal defensive firearms, you’d have equal attention given to other forms of murder.

Glaring examples of the double standard can be found in some of this country's most high-profile murders.

Something overlooked by many in the so-called "Crime of the Century," the O. J. Simpson trial, was that Nicole Simpson and Ronald Goldman weren’t murdered with an illegal firearm, they were brutally stabbed to death. That may be an obvious point, but it shifted a lot of the focus.

In every high-profile murder case involving illegal firearms, you get the usual plea from the extremist victim disarmers to ban all legal defensive firearms.

The September eleventh 2001 Saudi terrorists used box cutters to illegally take over the planes.

Where was the outcry to ban knives and box cutters in the wake of those murders?

But no, the bloody crowd guilty of facilitating the needless slaughter, Feinstein, Boxer, Schumer, Kennedy, et al, blathered on about how the world would instantly turn into a paradise if only the honest unorganized Militia members would stop stubbornly hanging onto their legal defensive firearms.

On February fourteenth 2003, a Florida Appeals court ruled there’s absolutely nothing illegal about lying, concealing, or distorting information by a major press organization.

The court reversed the four hundred twenty-five thousand dollar jury verdict in favor of journalist Jane Akre who charged she was pressured by Fox Television management and lawyers to air what she knew and documented to be false information.

The ruling basically declares it’s technically not against any law, rule, or regulation to deliberately lie or distort the news on a television broadcast!

Henry Allen, of the disinformation media Washington Post says, “Reporters today are far removed from America’s founding values and are alarmed and contemptuous of [legal defensive firearms] owners as dangerous lower classes.“

In the words of Walter Cronkite: “News reporters are certainly [social fascists] and left of center.”

Barbara Walters concurs: “The news media in general are [social fascists].”

Former NBC news president Rubin Frank admits, "News is what someone wants to suppress. Everything else is advertising."

Rick Holmes, of disinformation media Metrowest News says, “Amplifying fears is our job and our pleasure. The one bias I’ll concede all of us in this business fall prey to: we want there to be a story, and ‘no problems’ is not much of a story.”

According to writer Michael Bane, "Lots of reporters, when they have a question about [legal defensive firearms,] they call the Brady people, which is like calling the Klan for information on the N. A. A. C. P."

Phillip Dick, author of “Minority Report,” relates, “The basic tool for the manipulation of reality is the manipulation of words. If you can control the meaning of words, you can control the people who must use the words.”

Don Rottenberg quips, “There are still places where people think that the function of the [disinformation] media is to provide information.”

Stephen Jukes, Reuters’ slimy global head of news makes obvious both his -and his organization’s loyalties: “We all know that one man’s terrorist is another man’s ‘freedom fighter’ and that Reuters upholds the principle that we do not use the word ‘terrorist.’ To be frank, it adds little to call the attack on the World Trade Center a terrorist attack.”

Personally, I’m quite saddened that Reuters didn’t choose the World Trade Center for its headquarters.

The false moral equivalence between malevolent attacker and righteous defender is closely related to the vile moral relativism one must possess to be capable of uttering such a deceitful falsehood as, "One man's terrorist is another man's ‘freedom fighter.’"

The difference between a so-called ‘freedom fighter’ and an actual terrorist is found in the character of the methods of each, as much if not more than in the stated goals of each.

Genuine freedom fighters target the arms of those oppressing them -military personnel, infrastructure employed to deliver and facilitate force, political figures associated with the regime engaged in the oppression, et cetera.

Bloodthirsty terrorists, by contrast, specifically and deliberately target civilians.

Terrorists seek to create political change through purposely creating fear and chaos.

That fear is delivered not simply to the political figures associated with the terrorists' discontent, nor even to the arms of that entity, but to the populace of the targeted community or nation.

Declarations such as "one man's terrorist is another man's ‘freedom fighter’" are merely a means of evading our responsibility to exercise sound moral judgment in what we do and what we believe.

In the aftermath of the September eleventh 2001 devastation, myriad Chinese-manufactured American flags spontaneously popped up all over the grieving nation, extending even to small, tasteful lapel pins reverently displayed by network anchors, demonstrating solidarity with patriotic citizens.

Arrogant "NBC Nightly News" anchorman Tom Brokaw refused, saying " I don't think a journalist ought to be wearing a flag, because it does seem to be, to me at least, a sign of solidarity toward whatever the ‘ government’ is doing, and that is not our role. "

Fox’s Neil Cavuto retorts, "Frankly, I'm sick and tired of journalists who prefer to honor a profession more than the country that makes that profession possible. I believe strongly... that you can be a good journalist and a good American at the same time. The two are not mutually exclusive. I ask just as penetrating questions and probe just as critical issues. But I do so with a firm appreciation of the place from which I'm doing it... the united States of America."

Not to be outdone, the evil social fascist disinformation media joyfully make full use of their free bully pulpit to proselytize their demonstrably phony worldview on a gullible public.

In the words of Alexander Solzhenitsyn, “Hastiness and superficiality are the psychic diseases of the twentieth century, and more than anywhere else this disease is reflected in the press.”

All programming has devolved from mere entertainment (now that we have your attention, let’s get to what we want) to not-so-subtle propaganda prostheletizing the evil social fascist agenda, one sugar-encrusted bite of excrement at a time, a poison pill gleefully shoved- and gratefully received- down the vacant throats of a sea of complacent sheep.

A recent episode of the extremist victim disarmament disinformation media contributor ABC-TV show “Seventh Heaven” was treacherously abused to propagandize by using an actor representing the highest level of “authority figure,” a uniformed mercenary proxy-guardian “police” officer, to parrot verbatim the blatant lies of the Kellerman fraud to a vast, ignorant prime-time audience, who'll then blindly exploit it as a legitimate source of “information” to quote to others even more willfully ignorant than themselves.

An episode of “Judging Amy” blatantly demonstrated its agenda when judge Amy is invited onto- surprise- a disinformation media TV talk show.

She tells her mother that she isn’t allowed to express her personal opinion when representing the judicial system, to which her devious mother replies, “Well, you’ll just have to find opportunities to slip your opinion in.”

The evil social fascist propagandists -er, writers get their filthy deceptions straight from an equally corrupt organization styling itself “the Entertainment Industries Council, Incorporated,” and they get their blatant deceptions direct from the lying lips of bloody Sarah Brady and Andrew McKelvey, collaborating in their unholy plot to overthrow America.

It’s constant: in disingenuous “polls,” they slyly slant the deck by asking manifestly leading questions like, “Why shouldn’t you possess legal defensive firearms,” then simply throw out the results, instead tabulating the “unsolicited replies” to their “fair and balanced” reporting.

If the question I ask is, “Is it raining?” and I’ve already peered out the window to determine that it isn’t, I can pretty confidently predict that I’ll receive more “no’s” than If I hadn’t troubled myself to procure such critical data first.

It’s a foregone conclusion that when public opinion is controlled by villainous social fascists, the inevitable loss of your rights has already been accomplished.
