US Media a history of distorting the news

May 4, 1970, America was experiencing the full turbulence of the Vietnam War both overseas and as home. All across the nation college students protested against the war. The supposed peace loving hippie types, who professed peace and love had become strangely militant in their passion against the war. As demonstrations raged across American campuses, US servicemen, who had no such luxury, served their country in rat infested swamps, mined rice fields, and dense jungles where snipers and bobby traps waited the American soldiers patrolling there.

Kent State shooting

In the weeks preceding a shooting that would take the lives of 4 victims and wounding five more, events were rapidly building up in the days before, the flames of anger being stoked by the American news media. When campus protestors at Kent State in Ohio failed in several attempts to ignite college campus buildings, it was the good old reliable American press who instructed them on how to properly incinerate a building. In the tumultuous days that led up to a fatal shooting by the National Guard as they were threatened by demonstrators several buildings on campus were set ablaze thanks to the help of reporters looking for a big story.

They got their big story by invoking tensions to the breaking point when after several fires on campus and more protests, National Guardsmen responding to violent threats by a crowd of anti-Vietnam demonstrators fired their M-1 rifles into the crowd. The press had a field day producing the now famous photo of a 14 year old girl kneeling next to a body on the sidewalk shot to death by a Guardsman’s bullet. This is only a single incident in many that have propelled the US media into the unfitting business of altering US policy with sensationalized and misleading journalism. It goes on to this day as President Obama has practically been re-elected thanks to an impartial American mainstream media that his vilified many a worthy conservative candidate to prolong the agony and suffering over a president whom history will not be kind to.

Iran hostage crisis

In 1979 at the US Embassy in Iran, the infamous hostage crisis was about to take place. Much as the Obama administration has bungled foreign relations today to the point where there is widespread destruction among US diplomatic properties abroad, the Carter White House was busy capitulating and convincing Americans they deserved no better. At that time America’s decline was truly evident in the hands of a liberal Democrat White House that had allowed the capture of a US embassy in a foreign country that was in the midst of an uprising. Did we learn our lesson from Iran? If we had, we wouldn’t gotten our Ambassador Stevens killed in Libya along with his staff and a Navy Seal body guard again under the rule of a Democratic administration.

What has become blatantly apparent in the present day is the strong relationship developed between the mainstream media in the US and the Democratic White Houses no matter how destructive those administrations have become to the American way of life and the US Constitution. What happened during the hostage crisis in Iran is no different. As each progressively radical Democratic administration fouls the American political system and society they know they can rely heavily on the support of just about every major news network to refuse to report events that rightfully incriminate wrongdoing in the White House. They will hide evidence of law breaking at the highest levels of government, and even blackout coverage all together on an issue that threatens to topple their all mighty Democratic leftist Presidents.

In Iran in 1979, our overseas journalists were at it again inciting riots for the sake of a sensational news story. As Iranian protestors gathered at the outside the gates of the US Embassy and began chanting against the US support of a soon to be deposed Shah, guess who was provoking them, encouraging these Iranians to escalate their rage? US media reporters exhorted the Iranian demonstrators to display a rabid intensity bordering on madness. There was just one little problem. When the cameraman filming the event accidentally swept too wide, he caught images of one of the media crew who was gesturing to the gathered crowd to intensify their actions! Our conspiring media had unwittingly caught their own at the job of fabricating a story! How ubiquitous!

The continuing assault on reason

Today the US media continues their game of distorting the truth and representing a biased liberal world view. However, it’s worse than that. There has been a coordinated effort to change the political climate in the US and transform it into a socialist’s vision of a new America that is far from the original free enterprise oriented small government kept in its place model. The American public for the most part simply does not recognize how their nation’s social landscape is being forced into a radical leftist paradigm never intended by our forefathers, who envisioned a nation where every individual could earn his own level of personal achievement, not a government regulated utopia.
