19. Sadly, the media is now a part of the government.

They too, can no longer be trusted. So where does that leave us, as citizens, in what is supposed to be our government and our country?

“Hear me: an unconscious people, an indoctrinated people, a people fed only partisan information and opinion that confirm their own bias, a people made morbidly obese in mind and spirit by the junk food of propaganda is less inclined to put up a fight, ask questions and be skeptical. And just as a democracy can die of too many lies, that kind of orthodoxy can kill us, too.” Bill Moyers
