Have you ever wondered whether or not everything you see on the news could be just a bunch of made up stuff? That the news may be the US type of propoganda? And that all we know really isn't real?

What about if all of the things you find on the internet have been filtered through government computers to see only what they want you to? I mean what if all that is made up too

I stopped watching the news on Sept 11th.
Our local station reported that the local VA hospital had been bombed (this is when the PA plane was getting ready to crash) and that the reporter could see bodies everywhere. They actually aired that, un-checked and continued reporting it even when people from that area were calling in saying "no we are okay, no downed plane or bomb here" The reporters refused to give in on it and kept saying reports were unclear. Yeah unclear enough for you to just go ahead and report the doom and gloom but not the actual happy fact that everyone was okay.
So in a nutshell, the news can be so incredibly wrong.

The problem is that the news doesn't show even half of what is really happening in the world. To find out the truth you have to do a lot of searching on the net and know which sites are trustworthy and which aren't.

I don't think it's made up. I think it's bits and pieces of real information. You have to read and surf the Internet and watch news to piece together a story.

Ahhh ... but couldn't everything around you be propaganda? Not just the media, but everything ... your job ... your life ... jeesh! I'm sounding like the plot for the matrix!
