Media Control
(Who is Owning the Media?)
by Wes Penre, December 1, 2003

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Quite often, I hear this:

*

"This conspiracy thing can't be true. If it was, it would be on TV and in the newspapers".

or:

"I read the newspapers every day, so I KNOW what is going on"!

*

If I get the chance, I reply with this:

"There is no such thing, at this date in the world's history, in America, 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 opinion 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 street looking for another job.

If I allowed my honest opinion to appear in one issue of my paper, before twenty-four hours my occupation would be gone. You know it and I know it. And what folly is this - toasting an independent press? We are the tools and vassals of 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."

John Swinton - New York Times - New York Press Club(1)

*

"The news and truth are not the same thing."

~~Walter Lippmann, American journalist, 1889-1974

*

"News is what someone wants to suppress. Everything else is advertising."

- Rubin Frank, former president NBC News

*

"We tell the people what they need to know, not what they want to know."

- Frank Sesno, CNN News

*

"Our job is to give people not what they want, but what we decide they ought to have." - Richard Salent, former pres. CBS News

*

These quotes are telling us a whole lot of what is going on. There is no independent press(2), and there is no objective mass media. In the article I wrote on this web site about the Shadow Government I mentioned the Illuminati papers "The Protocols or the Elders of Zion". Those protocols are supposed to have been created at least 150 years ago, but the control of the population via mass media was already planned at that time(3).

The mainstream media are controlled by the same Elite of people that are exposed on this web site. They are the ones who decide what will be printed in the press, and what will be announced in the News. This means that our reality is severely distorted by lies, half truths and propaganda that these people feed us with on a daily basis. What is written in the papers and announced on CNN will be the norm, but is not what is really happening. When the heads of the media also attend the same meetings as the Elite businessmen (Bilderberg, Trilateral Commission and Council of Foreign Relations) and nothing that is discussed on these meetings can be revealed outside those doors, we understand that the media is not there for us, but for them. The British author David Icke explains it perfectly:

"... And the Illuminati control the newspapers through subordinates like the "owner" of the "Washington Post", Katherine Graham (Bil, TC, CFR)(4) and the Canadian, Conrad Black, an inner-core member of the Bilderberg Group, who heads the Hollinger media empire. This includes the London "Daily Telegraph", the "Jerusalem Post", and has owned some 70% of newspapers in Canada. Members of these organisations control all three television networks in the United States, NBC, ABC, and CBS. They also control the "Los Angeles Times", "New York Times", "Wall Street Journal", and the empires of Rupert Murdoch, "Time Warner", including "CNN", and the major media operations throughout the world. Even four out of five local newspapers in the UK are now owned by the big media cartels."(5).

So, if the heads of the World Newspapers are sitting in together with the Elite businessmen of this world, discussing and agreeing upon future events and plans, it is absolutely obvious, and not a trace of a doubt that there is no free press for the mainstream population.

Now, if we could just all understand the effect this media control has had in forming peoples' partisan opinions...

-Recent memory of an ABC commentator railing against "the Liberal Media"

So what does ABC's attempt to tell viewers there is a "Liberal Media", which they oppose, tell us.

"Hey stupid, if there is a Liberal media...it is ABC!"

Ergo: the truth is glaring evident!

The US media is overwhelmingly partisans opposed to an imaginary "Liberal media"
which has not existed for some time past.
(Remember when the "news" media just told you what had happened and let you decide for yourself what opinions to form?)

Project Mockingbird succeeded along with
the Ethnic Outreach program.
Just as the CIA used frontmen to buy controlling interest in the news media;

Investigative reporter Christopher Simpson says in "Blowback" that after World War II,
Nazi émigrés were given CIA subsidies to build a far-right-wing power base in the U. S.
These Nazis assumed prominent positions in the * Party's "ethnic outreach committees."
Simpson documents the fact that these Nazis did not come to America as individuals
but as part of organized groups with fascist political agendas.
The Nazi agenda did not die along with Adolf Hitler.
It moved to America (or a part of it did) and joined the far right of the * Party.<

financing Hitler's infant Nazi party. As mentioned in earlier chapters, there were American contributors as well.

"Some Americans were just bigots and made their connections to Germany through Allen Dulles's firm of Sullivan and Cromwell because they supported Fascism. The Dulles brothers, who were in it for profit more than ideology, arranged American investments in Nazi Germany in the 1930s to ensure that their clients did well out of the German economic recovery. . . .
"George Bush could not get away from Dulles's crooked corporate network, which his grandfather and father had joined in the 1920s. Wherever he turned, George found that the influence of the Dulles brothers was already there. Even when he fled to Texas to become a successful businessman on his own, he ran into the pirates of Wall Street.

"One of Allen Dulles's secret spies inside the Democratic party later became George Bush's partner in the Mexican oil business. Edwin Pauley, a California oil man, was . . . one of Dulles's covert agents in the Roosevelt and Truman administrations . . . a 'big business' Democrat. . . ."
Pauley, say the 'old spies,' was the man who brought all the threads of the Mexican connection together. He was Bush's business associate, a front man for Dulles's CIA [Allen Dulles was CIA director then], and originator of the use of Mexican oil fronts to create a slush fund for Richard Nixon's various campaigns. . . .

"Although it is not widely known, Pauley, in fact, had been a committed, if 'secret,' Nixon supporter since 1960. It should be recalled that Nixon tried to conceal his Mexican slush fund during the Watergate affair by pressuring the CIA into a 'national security' cover-up.

"After Nixon's landslide victory in 1972, he ordered a general house cleaning on the basis of loyalty. 'Eliminate everyone,' he told John Ehrlichman about reappointments, 'except George Bush. Bush will do anything for our cause.' . . .

In 1972 Nixon's State Department spokesman confirmed to his Australian counterpart that the ethnic groups were very useful to get out the vote in several key states. Bush's tenure as head of the Republican National Committee exactly coincided with Laszlo Pasztor's 1972 drive to transform the Heritage Groups Council into the party's official ethnic arm. The groups Pasztor chose as Bush's campaign allies were the emigre Fascists whom Dulles had brought to the United States. . . .

". . . Nearly twenty years later, and after expose's in several respectable newspapers, Bush continued to recruit most of the same ethnic Fascists, including Pasztor, for his own 1988 ethnic outreach program when he first ran for president.
"According to our sources in the intelligence community," state the authors, "it was Bush who told Nixon that the Watergate investigations might start uncovering the Fascist skeletons in the * party's closet. Bush himself acknowledges that he wrote Nixon a letter asking him to step down. The day after Bush did so, Nixon resigned.

AUSTRALIAN AID WORKER IN IRAQ RELEASED

April 15, 2004

Australian aid worker in Iraq, Donna Mulhearn, has been released by insurgents
in Fallujah after being held captive 24 hours.

Donna said she and three other internationals, were treated with respect by
their captors and were released without harm.

Donna was in Fallujah with an international team of humanitarian workers who
went to the besieged town to help distribute aid and evacuate civilians.

She was shot at four times by American soldiers while trying to do this work.

It was when leaving the city on Wednesday afternoon that the team was taken captive by local Mujahadeen fighters.

"We were interrogated and our belongings were searched, but we were treated very well, especially when they heard about the work we were doing" Donna said.

"I was questioned about Australia's involvement in the war, about the current role of Australian soldiers and the views of Australians at home. They asked why Australia wants to hurt Iraqi people."

"As the bombing and gunfire continued around Fallujah, I realised that I was not the captive. These people were, the ones who are caught in this hellish situation."

"All our captors had brothers and fathers killed in Fallujah in recent days, yet
they showed no anger or retribution. They showed us their humanity. They were gentle and grateful for the work we were doing."

Donna said the situation in Fallujah was reaching the point of a humanitarian crisis with many families stuck in the city with few supplies because US soldiers would not allow them to leave.

"Even during a so-called cease-fire, Fallujah was under siege with bombing, missiles and mortar attacks," she said.

"But the worst form of attack was the US snipers hiding on rooftops who kill hundreds of civilians as they tried to move about the city."

Donna said she and her three colleagues were shot at by American soldiers four times while trying to transport an ambulance full of medical aid to a clinic.

"We were clearly unarmed civilian workers, we had our hands in the air, with our passports in our hands. We used a loud speaker to communicate with them, but they responded with gunfire."
