As we inch further into the future and evermore closer to the next, and certainly last, world war,
it seems proper to give pause and consider the significance of the fact
that much of the information provided on world events is dreadfully
compromised by corporate and political propagandists.
Mainstream media, with its exceptional reach, is able to mold the
public’s first impression of any global event thereby establishing the
‘official story,’ the one that is repeated again and again during the
first moments of a crisis. They capitalize on the immediate
shock value of an act of extraordinary violence or unrest to mold public
perception into conformity with a narrative that will become the abiding fiction by which any further substantive investigation of the event must be measured against.
9/11 is perhaps the best example of this, as nearly 15 years
afterwards, an incredible amount of information and research has become
available the public, at least enough to unseat the official version of
events and inspire a deeper investigation, yet contrary reporting is
still not taken seriously at all by mainline media outlets.
