While Hitler Had Only Goebbels, Obama Has the Entire American Mainstream Media - Propaganda is Alive and Well in the USA

How Our "Free Press" Has Become
a Propaganda Machine

A look at any of the magazine covers currently on the news stands should convince any fair-minded individual, Democrat or Republican, liberal or conservative, that propaganda is alive and well in the United States of America.

Hitler Had Goebbels Obama Has the Entire American Mainstream Media Propaganda is Alive and Well in the USA Newsweek Mitt Romney THe Wimp Factor


Here's Newsweek, a publication that has so devalued itself by its blatant bias [it was actually sold for $1 last year, less than 1/4th of the price of a single issue] accusing the Republican candidate for the presidency, a self-made multi-millionaire, of being a "Wimp!" Just how is it that an "insecure" individual, a "wimp," was able to make highly successful investment decisions involving $10s of millions of his own and other people's money?

In the other cover, Time magazine attempts to tie Barrack Obama to the lasting popularity of Ronald Reagan, a man whom most would think of as Obama's polar opposite! For example, when Ronald Reagan took over from Jimmy Carter's "stagflation," the economy was in a shambles, with not only high unemployment but sky-high inflation, in double-digits, and interest rates over 20% so no-one could buy or sell their home or buy a new automobile. Reagan did the exact opposite of Obama - he cut taxes and regulations and the economy thrived. By the time the 1984 election came around, Reagan won every single state except Mondale's home state of Minnesota and the District of Columbia -- quite a contrast with Barack Obama, but you wouldn't know it from Time magazine.

The same thing goes on with the major television news broadcasts - they seldom report on bad news about the Obama administration (when is the last time any of the networks covered Fast & Furious, or the fact that the Attorney General of the United States has been held to be in contempt of congress with some Democrats joining in on the vote!)? When is the last time you heard them delve into the facts behind the DOE loan to Solyndra, or the fact that over 80% of the DOE "green energy loans" went to major Obama/Democrat Party supporters and bundlers? When is the last time you heard a reporter on ABC, CBS, NBC, MSNBC or CNN ask why it was that the DOE subordinated its interest in the loan to Solyndra so that the principals at Solyndra, the Obama/Democratic party supporters, would be paid first out of the proceeds of the bankruptcy?

A couple of weeks ago we had the specter of Andrea Mitchell on MSNBC ridiculing Mitt Romney as being "out of touch" after they showed the beginning 30 seconds, and the very end, of a Mitt Romney speech. Romney was expressing wonder at the automation in a restaurant called Wawa, describing the touchpad method they used in ordering. MSNBC edited the entire heart of that segment of the speech, perhaps two minutes, where he was comparing the efficiency of private enterprise such as Wawa to the inefficiency of the federal government, showing only the beginning and the end in an attempt to portray Romney as "out of touch."

Bill O'Reilly cut Ms. Mitchell some slack and blamed her producers, not her -- but when the topic came up she refused to apologize. What she did is de rigeur among the leftist American "journalists" of the day.

What else would you expect when the most prestigious school of journalism is at that far-left citadel of indoctrination, Columbia University, Barack Hussein Obama's alma mater? Columbia is that bastion of "free speech" where they roll out the red carpet for tyrants such as Mahmoud Ahmadinejad and attempt to prevent invited conservatives from speaking at all with a barrage of pies in the face.

What's going on?
tyrants mahmoud ahmadinejad attempt prevent invited conservatives speaking barrage pies
The fact is, the "media elite" lean inexorably to the left, and they make no attempt to hide their biases. Bernie Goldberg explains that it is because all of the people they associate with hold the same views as they do, so they don't even realize how biased they are. However, I believe there is more to it than that. Percentage-wise, journalists are more than twice as likely as members of the general public to self-identify as liberal. In fact, in polls among the general public, self-identified conservatives greatly outnumber self-identified liberals (in every state except Massachusetts!).

The latest bipartisan Battleground Poll, conducted by George Washington University in collaboration with Democrat and Republican polling organizations, reveals a pattern that is identical to the previous twenty-one polls over the last ten years. In the latest poll, 58% of Americans describe themselves as "very conservative" or "somewhat conservative," while only 37"% of American describe themselves as "very liberal" or "somewhat liberal." The "moderate" or "don't know" remain very small as in past polls, at 2% each.

So the problem we face in a nation where conservatives are in the majority, by a whopping 21 percentage points, is that we have a corps of journalists who are bound and determined to push their left-wing values, just as the professors at our colleges and universities continue to "profess" failed left-wing ideology.

I have mentioned to a number of individuals here on Soda Head a very brief conversation I had with the columnist Robert Novak at a book signing after a speech Mr. Novak had given. I asked him, "Whatever happened to journalistic integrity?" His response, "I doubt it ever existed!" Looking at the mess that is "journalism" today, it is certain that he was right - there certainly is no such thing as journalistic integrity in this day and age!

    I can recall even further back when Adlai Stevenson was running against Ike. According to the press, Stevenson was a genius and Ike, who had directed the largest military invasion in history only seven years earlier, was a dolt. It turned out that Stevenson, who had attended Harvard Law didn't have a law degree, and the press didn't bother to attempt to find out why. Stevenson, the brilliant Democratic candidate, had flunked out of Harvard and the president of the school had locked his transcripts in a desk drawer so they couldn't be located. Something like what has happened to Obama's transcripts at every university he attended.

    Hmmm ... Obama has Kathleen Sebelius, inept as usual, delinquent establishing the Independent Payment Advisory Board. Perhaps instead, they could be building somewhere for Seniors our own gas chambers and crematoriums too? Big Sis still hasn't justified either the exorbitant procurement of hollow point ammuniton. Is this a "Seig Heil" movement?

    Is it an "Obama-Hitler comparison?" Apparently your reading comprehension isn't what it should be. It's a comparison of two regimes and their propaganda, not the leaders of those regimes. Get it?

    Actually, the newspapers and far-left TV news shows are losing money for the owners, but they continue with their propaganda even though it hurts their viewership and circulation. The N.Y. Times was losing so much money that they had to borrow $100 million from Mexican billionaire Carlos Slim a couple of years ago. The far-left Newsweek magazine was in such poor shape that it actually sold for $1 last year (along with an assumption of liabilities), yet they are still right back at the lies.

    Great post Ken! I personally believe that the traits you are talking about in your post is a trait all politicians share together. In fact when I think about it, we as a people literally seek out and vote for these creeps because they are the ones who have this personality trait and the only ones who find the job of lying to the American people appealing. Nobody else seems to apply for the job.
    P.S. I like your writing style!

    Thats why I liked it. I'm a moderate who is labeled a hard core lefty on SH. You should see some of my awful posts! I don't always or ever agree with Ken on everything, but i admire his fire in the belly. Ken has often pointed out things I have already known but approaches it with a new angle , viewpoint and vigor. Sometimes he points out things that often go under my radar and would have missed or never known. I am not so close minded as not to at least listen to his argument. Do I like it when Ken calls me a half-whit for supporting Obama over Romney, No I DO NOT. Do I hate him for it and write him off by blocking him on SH? OF COURSE NOT! I wish my more liberal friends could be as tolerant as Ken has been to me.

    I'm more of a moderate liberal and have been called horrible things and made fun of by several (actually mre) conservatives. I've met a few that are pretty nice, as well. I would never read anything (and I didn't read this) from any side that used Hitler and Goebels in that matter. Maybe I'm too "old" and we studied the Holocaust so much in high school. But I'd never read or take seriously a post grandstanding with that headline.

    Yes, as a Jew I posted a rotten little post a while back called "Is Obama worse then Hitler?"
    It went over like a lead balloon. I think the first comment went something like this... " i dismiss any post that uses the term worse then Hitler to describe a modern political viewpoint." I can't be quoted, i deleted the message. The part that seemed to be lost on the person who replied, was so do i.

    Well, I think when anyone compares someone, something with Hitler, it immediately diminishes the point that they are making. At least that's my opinion. When I see it used, I just refuse to even read whatever the subject matter is about. I somewhat feel that way when people constantly throw out the "communist card", it usually shows that they really don't know what it means or what it stands for. Anyway, have a great day!

    I was told at Liberal camp as a child that Murdoch eats poor ethnic peoples babies.
    I didn't know what to think at the time! I blocked it out. Could he be the devil himself?

    I've had sex with a fox guy once. Well twice, really. The second one didn't count though. He was just writer.

    This propaganda thing has been going on for about 45 years or more Ken. I have been a part of this awful thing myself. Guilty as charged.

    It has gotten much worse and much more blatant during the Obama regime. Before Obama, did you ever hear a commentator say that they "got a thrill up their leg" listening to a politician's speech?

    I remember learning that when you are writing a story that has a meaningless death caused by the government the first thing you learn in Government propaganda 101 creative writing, is wrap it up in "Old Glory" and make it drip with patriotism while throwing in a few sparkling generalities. As we like to call them. Shiny-Gems. Nothing makes the mind stop thinking like nationalism and grassy green planes. The meaningless death has now become a selfless sacrifice for the greater good of the country. By the time the piece has ended it makes the idea of speaking the truth undignified. To dispute the myth is to hate your country. In fact speaking the truth will make you un-American.

    What did you learn of cutting the heart out of a politician's campaign speech and showing only the beginning and the very end in order to make the politician appear out of touch, and then laughing at him as the sequence is shown, as Andrea Mitchell did last month on MSNBC to Mitt Romney?

    I have learned to not believe everything i see and hear on cable tv!

    I love how they added Mitchel was being kind for not bring up everything Mitt said was also wrong...

    Romney told the crowd that an optometrist complained to him about a 33-page change of address form for Medicaid. He only missed it by 31 pages. The form he compared to the sandwich computers at “Wawa’s” is two pages long, four if you include the instructions.

    This does not surprise me. There really never has been any journalistic integrity. I think thats a myth. This is not as bad as the Trayvon Martin editing by a mad liberal in the editing room over at the same place, NBC. Adding the dead air space after he said it's amazing and shooting back to the both of them with a blank look does make Mitt Romney seem like an out of touch alien from another planet.
    Fox itself has done things like this as well. Like putting a (D) for Democrat on the bottom of a screen when the story is about a (R) "Republican" and the story is unflattering and involves sex crimes or corruption.


    I am ashamed on all sides Ken.

    I think you're right, Bob Novak told me that he doubted journalistic integrity had ever existed, but I can't recall it ever having been as blatant as it is today. Back in 1960, it was obvious that the press was rooting for JFK over Nixon (Nixon was right, the press never liked him, even before Watergate), but you didn't have a Chris Matthews swooning over JFK's speeches.
