Americans never gets complete story from Mainstream Media


When my parents took us to the movies in the 1950's, they never checked movie times. We simply showed up hoping we'd enter during the second feature of a double bill so we'd see the intended movie from the beginning. Half the time we came in during the main flick which spoiled the enjoyment. I'm reminded about that when I hear mainstre...am media's false, self-serving reporting on the fake Ukraine crisis. They start the narrative with Russia's intent to sever Crimea from the US and EU sponsored neo-Nazi takeover of the democratically elected Ukrainian government, without ever mentioning the US and EU shenanigans which precipitated the crisis in the first place. Russia should nor more allow the US and EU to interfere with their national interests in Ukraine than we would allow Russia to interfere with our national interests in Cuba. Oh, I forgot. When the Soviet Union did that in 1960, we launched a proxy invasion which failed and then spent the next several years trying to assassinate the Cuban leader being romanced by the Soviet Union.

Sadly and tragically, Mainstream Media is in the tank for Uncle Sam and toes the self destructive US line as surely as Pravda toed the Soviet line. Eleven years ago tomorrow Mainstream Media helped the Bush administration launch its criminal war against Iraq by ignoring the lies, fear tactics, threats and propaganda served up by the administration as justification. Last August the Mainstream Media came within a few hours of facilitating a criminal bombing of Syria based on false reports portraying the anti government rebels as white knights when they included many anti-American terrorists. The bombing was only prevented by a massive outpouring of public opposition. And here we are seven months later with a hysterical Mainstream Media again shilling a false and partial narrative on the American people, claiming that Russian President Putin simply woke up one day and decided to kick start a new Russian empire at the expense of the hapless Crimeans.

We've seen this movie before....except for the first half which is the most important part.
