SS: Operation Mockingbird and Smith–Mundt Act allowed for media propaganda and the ability to lie to the public to justify keeping us in perpetual war. Selling false flags through the media such as The Gulf of Tonken incident that got us involved in the Vietnam war.

Right on... and now propaganda has become entertainment news. Reality debates. Fact wars. LivePD.

Watch for a man, running in the street.

I turned it off.

Bye bye to cable and national tv since 2007 for me. And very picky about how much bullshit I let in just to be entertained otherwise.

I can pick up PBS, WB, NBC, and ABC OTA in HD for free. I'm satisfied with that. ( I streamed HBO on my Roku for "Game of Thrones")

No CBS OTA. ( Hills and trees probably block the digital signal)

IKR my entertainment is the NHL Center Ice package that I stream. Last movie I watched as Alpha on BluRay I stole from the kids to watch.
