Is this a reason why the press isn't telling us the truth?

There's been so many questions - where's the press in all of this? Well, before you criticize me, watch and then give your objective opinion of the message.

I say this, because I remember the Gulf war was called 'The most wired war in history' where many times the press would be somewhere before the troops...and of course why the real issues of immigration that we enjoy here with free speech, isn't covered by mainstream media...

MrToughQuestion: I've heard that before, and you can consider me a viewer!

Thank You Swirls!

Answer 1

whatever doesnt fit with their socialistic view of how america should be isnt reported...whatever can hurt america usually is...
thats why the major news channels and papers of the united states are losing followers by the droves...their bias shows so much it makes even the liberals sick of them...
their mastheads and bylines should read: "we report all the news that fits with our view of one world, where america isnt a leader, but an appeaser and beggar "....

geraldo thought him covering the fighting was the story..not the fighting....

Answer 2

The people who own the media companies have personal agendas, including getting their "friends" into office. Also, their primary business objective is profit. The more outrageous and slanderous stories get the most attention. Since their ratings are dropping like safes, they become even crazier in order to get someone to watch them.

They would much rather cover the story of a celebrity having a baby in Africa than real news, because they can't get our attention with "real" news, but everyone wants to know the intimate details of stars' lives.

Answer 3

Of course there is a reason. There has always been a reason. The reason is, propaganda. Read the paper! Most of the articles are poorly written and very slanted. The slant is toward liberalism. (No doubt about it) If the word racist were a mechanical device it would be in the Junk Yard. With very few exceptions, I interpret the journalism presented as half truth and that is on the high side.

Answer 4

I seen on Hannity & Combs to night that a minutemam was acosted by an illegal, the minutemen was filming this Mexican bringing in more illegals from Mexico, and the Illegal Mixican got mad at him filming his face and his van, he tried to stop him from filming it didn't work, he kept filming anyway, but Fox news was the only media outlet that put it on TV. That would never be on the regular news, they don't want to show the American public the truth, but they did have on the regular about the illegal encampments in San Diego and the mess the illegals are leaving. I am suprised the liberal news put that on.

Answer 5

Fascism is real in America and it's named the Republican party. I know many people who belong to this extremist group who aren't bad, just uninformed.

Our news media is dictated to by it's owners. This is why stations like Fox don't allow free speech on their network and the guys at the supposedly "liberal" networks are spinning the same tales as Fox. They're just doing what their overmonied fascist Republican owners allow them to do.

Does anyone remember how Geraldo Rivera was set up in his coverage of our attack and occupation of Afghanistan? He was then publicly ostracized by the same guys who gave him the "go ahead" to run the story.

Answer 6

Watch the BBC. They have been reporting on so many things of importance here and the media here just refuses to put it on air.

You know the media here has to get a licence from the feds to operate.
I'm starting to think that the media here is sucking up to the fed gov so they can get their licence.

Answer 7

two words: private interest. It is in the best interests of the media, both from the standpoint of business and moneymaking, and from inside the looking-glass of the media's personal political opinions, to report things EXACTLY as they currently do. Period. No higher answer exists, though I would love to see someone find one.

Answer 8

The american print media is the exclusive domain of us, the liberal intellectuals of this nation, and we are going to tell the truth, as we see it. Most of america can't read above the 8th grade level, so we print for the more intellectualy inclined among us.

Answer 9

Why are so naive?

....the press, the govt. and media are exactly known for being beckons of truth. Most in the press are liberal anyways, they don't want to give it coverage. Its better to remain silent and not cause controversy. I feel most liberal media moguls want to have open borders and implement globalism....pretty basic stuff....

Answer 10

I see stories about immigration on the news every day. What would you have them do?
