Bill Clinton deregulated media so that 3 corporations now own our public airwaves




This is the reason they are controlling the agenda in this country, which is all about distraction, looting and bullshit.

None of this would be possible without the lying warmongering corporate media.

All the lies about 9/11, Iraq...none of it possible with a functioning media.

They would not have repeated the yellowcake Niger lie like they did over and over, even after it was disproven.

Saddam's going to get you with a suitcase nuke!

He's going to send UAV's to the US with mustard gas !



Now people are saying 'well the media scared everyone so we have to bomb Iraq and Syria'

That is so freaking stupid I cannot believe someone would believe that but whatever.

A Democracy cannot exit without a free press.

They destroyed the party, not anyone who became disgusted and gave up.
