Fearmongers abound
Ebola, ISIS, healthcare
Scaring the masses
Nothing more than politics
Spread by corrupt media
“Fair and Balanced”, ha!
They all have an agenda
Manipulation
Not to report and inform
But to divide and conquer
~~ Dominic R. DiFrancesco ~~
The media is having a field day with the terror this month.
They certainly are, it seems that we have a Scare of the Month club in this country.
Month or week? I’m not even sure they know what to aim for anymore. Ebola, ISIS, Enterovirus, and that’s just want I heard as I passed a radio on a news station.
You’re right, I don’t really know if it is month or week, it almost seems like there is some new threat that they are trying to scare us with daily.
I wonder if they’re at a point where it’s like a terrifying Madlib that they work off of. The fear rhetoric seems to be getting identical for every situation.
It sure does seem that way. Every event seems to mean that whatever it is is out to kill us all. It doesn’t matter whether it’s a disease or some terror group.
Don’t forget car recalls, swimming pools, neighbors, strangers, and air. 🙂
Wow, I did forget about them…hey and lets not forget about the boogieman. 🙂
I think he needs a new PR guy. You don’t hear much about him any more.
Sad but true!
Thank you.
Unfortunately too true Dom 🍀
It is a sad fact indeed Mick, thank you my friend.
I love your politcal musings 🙂 always so good!!!!
I’m glad, I don’t know why I write about it so much because all politics do is aggravate me. I guess they are my way of getting my frustrations out.
Reblogged this on Steve's Blog.
No doubt about this. The media is totally corrupt along with their buddies in Congress and the White House. They are nothing but propaganda ministries do mislead the masses who are ignorant of the facts. It’s a conspiracy of immense proportions. Only disagreement is your reference to Fox News. That is as close as you are going to get to real news. I am talking about their news hour and NOT their nightly opinion shows. BIG difference in my opinion.
I would agree, the newshour is as close to real news for Fox as anything on their network, however it is greatly overshadowed by the likes of Sean Hannity, Bill O’Reilly, Steve Doocy and a host of other characters, as you said in their nightly line-up that do nothing but inflame the populace with their right wing puff pieces. This is not to say that the left doesn’t have the same thing in the likes of MSNBC. What troubles me is that I am old enough to remember a time when nothing like this “entertainment news” existed. ABC, NBC, CBS, PBS was what we had and they provided balance reporting on the issues providing both sides to the public. Those days are gone and I fear that they will never return, how sad for the American people. Thank you for the thoughtful comment Steve, I really appreciate it and I appreciate the re-blog as well.
But who are they dividing to conquer if not themselves?
They clearly are dividing us, I have never seen a more divided America than I see right now…we can’t seem to agree on anything and it is fueled by the extreme fringe politicians and the far left and far right media in this country. Much of the media here no longer reports to inform the populace, but instead to lure them to take one side of an issue or another, they are completely biased.
If you can find much of anything in the news in the first place anymore.
There certainly doesn’t seem to be anything good in the news anymore that’s for sure.
What a messed up world we live in.
It certainly is a messed up world…and getting worse all the time.
