"Do you really believe the corporate media tell you all of the truth all of the time? Or do you suspect that some stories are just not dealt with, while others are subtly slanted and edited so as to tell you what to believe concerning an issue, person or movement?In our own experience, we've been astounded to see the difference between individual wire services [the primary source of news for many newspapers and other media outlets] in the way they treat particular stories; between the British and North American press in which major stories are covered and which are just suppressed by lack of media exposure; and by the all-too-revealing stories which were consistently ignored because they simply proved too embarrassing or inconvenient to those in power.
Fortunately, at least one highly-respected journalist has publicly confessed that this is indeed the case. Asked to give a toast before the prestigious New York Press Club in 1953, John Swinton, the former Chief of Staff at The New York Times, made this candid confession [it's worth noting that Swinton was called "The Dean of His Profession" by other newsmen, who admired him greatly]:
There is no such thing, at this date of the world's history, as an independent press. You know it and I know it. There is not one of you who dares to write your honest opinions, and if you did, you know beforehand that it would never appear in print. I am paid weekly for keeping my honest opinions out of the paper I am connected with. Others of you are paid similar salaries for similar things, and any of you who would be so foolish as to write honest opinions would be out on the streets looking for another job.If I allowed my honest opinions to appear in one issue of my paper, before twenty-four hours my occupation would be gone. The business of the journalist is to destroy the truth; to lie outright; to pervert; to vilify; to fawn at the feet of mammon, and to sell the country for his daily bread. You know it and I know it and what folly is this toasting an independent press. We are the tools and vassals of the rich men behind the scenes. We are the jumping jacks, they pull the strings and we dance. Our talents, our possibilities and our lives are all the property of other men. We are intellectual prostitutes.
In the intervening period, things have got even worse! Media concentration and the virtual disappearance of independent newspapers and fearless investigative reporting often means that the only things you can really trust the media on are the sports results, the classified ads and the weather - and, not infrequently, they're even wrong about the weather! Add the biases and liberal preconceptions of the typical journalist to the political correctness strictures which now prevail and is it any wonder that somewhere and somehow the truth gets lost in the process of reporting it? Consciously or not, most journalists function as paid propagandists and newspapers present the viewpoints which the controlling elite wish us to hear and be influenced by." - 'New World Order Intelligence Update'
