4. It would be a different world if people would try to find out what's beyond the ferociously spun

images they are given in these short blasts of perception molding from the corporate sources.

It takes the readers who continue to wonder what was behind the outburst at the Spanish Prime Minister and look for more information to learn what had been discussed BEFORE the outburst, concerning the fact that the previous Prime Minister, Bush's lackey, little fascist Aznar had sent his own people right over to the Presidential Palace to welcome and congratulate the coup president, prominent business man Pedro Carmona who showed up the moment after they kidnapped Hugo Chavez, just as planned.

THAT was what had been discussed PRIOR to the part the right-wing controlled media thought would really get'em wild in the States was delivered, dressed up in the conventional inflamatory crap which got them all foaming at the mouth, as usual.

It really doesn't take much to get stupid people bouncing off the walls when they won't get off their asses and start doing a little research to see what the hell is going on.

Then they stick their knobby noses into conversations in which people who DO keep up are trying to talk to each other, and jam them all up, knowing people just don't like the idea of having to take time out of their busy days to try to spoon feed them the information they won't bother to find for themselves.

God, what a circus.

Life is good for the propagandists, as there's so little natural resistance among the reactionaries.
