Comments on: The media is out of love with the man, not the agenda http://www.bookwormroom.com/2009/08/28/the-media-is-out-of-love-with-the-man-not-the-agenda/ Conservatives deal with facts and reach conclusions; liberals have conclusions and sell them as facts.

Obama may in the end truly prove to be the final nail in the coffins of the LA Times, NY Times, Washington Post, NBC, CBS, ABC and all those other DNC mouthpieces. If so, it will be the crowning achievement of his administration, one for which we should all be grateful The problem with the MSM media is that they were so in the tank for Obama that they can’t afford to backpedal without destroying the last remaining vestiges of their credibility.

The problem here is that if a person tries to do so, he has to use his external senses to perceive reality. How will he do so accurately when propaganda already controls his external senses? Much of the public believes that simply reading other sources of material, other sides of the story, will give them something approximating the truth. That's not exactly true, however. Why? Because both sources or even all sources can be a result of propaganda, and even if they weren't, the propaganda operations that changed people's mental filters would still be in effect. What this means is that people will still take in information, regardless of the source, through their personal experiences and prejudices. Which, conveniently, is controlled by Dem propaganda. So, no, reading other sources does a person no good by itself. It is only by thinking and self-introspection, that you can change how you think and what you think. It is only by thinking, for yourself by yourself, that you can create an internally consistent world view independent of the corruptions of external propaganda. Ozzie, for example, could read and listen to Rush, Sarah, Coulter, me, you, and Obama and still be a tool of Dem propaganda. These things aren't solved by being well read.

So when they misrepresent the events, the very people they depend on for their phoney baloney jobs see they are lying. I expect the coverage will continue to try to paper over the agenda while increasingly putting the blame on Obama. Unfortunately, the readers will continue to realize the coverage is all propaganda and increasingly put the blame on Obama and the media. Bad for the Dems is that when times get hard, the youngin's are going to turn to the older folks for advice and comfort so I expect the kids to start seeing with new eyes as well.

As the two groups become more and more disillusioned, they will begin to find common ground and THEN we'll really see the SHTF in the White House as they scramble to re-inflate the empty suit. Because that won't be possible, be ready for more and more "enemies" and villains to appear. The next 3 years aren't going to be pretty. Our only hope is a major shift away from the trend of fascist marxism that the current Congress is trying to force upon us. It'll be fascinating to see how the media-people dichotomy plays out, I just hope they don't do too much damage to the country while its' happening.
