MSM on the word "Terror"
Friends,

On a recent rainy day, I decided to start a research project. This project is developing into something very disheartening and rather frightening to me. What I am uncovering is Physcological Operations being played on the people of America through the news they watch, not to mention regular broadcasting such as sitcoms, etc.

The area I am paying attention to in this report is the word, and variances of the word terror (terrorist,terrorist, etc.) This part of the report is important because it is proving slowly that the word terror is being "lumped" into genres where it doesn't belong. For example, it's pretty evident that a thief or an insurgent aren't terrorists, but in the newspeak of today they are.

This is due in part to the MSM reporting the wrong words the wrong way. Anyway, here is the raw data. I recorded on paper how many times I heard or saw terror or variances of terror. This is shocking to me.

1.FOX News-Reported the word terror wrong 59 times in an hour.

2.MSNBC News-Reported the word terror wrong 32 times in one hour.

3.CNN News-Reported the word terror wrong 12 times in one hour.

4.CNN International-Reported the word terror wrong 9 times in one hour.

5.PBS-Reported the word terror wrong 1 time in 30 minutes.

As you can see the top two were a shot's distance from the rest, but according to the recent stats, 52% gather their news from NBC and FOX's news outlets.

It's out of control.

Be afraid.

Don't think for yourself. Thinking for yourself is very dangerous.

Don't try to change anything. Change is dangerous.

Just keep borrowing.

Just keep consuming.

End of message.
