Mainstream media do get it wrong - cut and paste according to their own agendas.

No one hears the truth or sees the full picture anymore.

I worry for our children

CNN is chicken feed compared to the Al Jazeera - Doha, Qatar - broadcast. I watch that 1/2 hour programme some mornings. Intelligence-insulting anti-Israel propaganda and grand-distortion of facts! I can't understand why that station hasn't been taken off Australia's TV media like the Russians' 'Vremia' propaganda trumpet on SBS.

Do the MSM still think that Joe Q Public believes the drivel that they spout? As Janelle mentioned below, the "wuflu scam" really opened a lot of our eyes to their propaganda.

When you look at some of the "free to air " bilge you know why half of the population are border line brain, dead Religion used to be called the opiate of the masses, now it is sport ,"tv like married at first sight " farmer wants a wife ad-nauseum. And any nature shows some sobered up blackfella extolling his "cultures virtues " to some brain dead female talking head who gushingly follows every word a s gospel. ABC does not get a run here ,and has'nt for many years. Pommy BBC is worse Thank God for good books . Idriess ,Patterson , Lawson and the odd other .

You're right Bella - it's mind boggling that this is still the case.

I just watched BBC question time and the poor treatment that Melanie Phillips revived as she defended Israel and tried to introduce truth into the discussion. The media is in dire need of reform. That dreadful woman who runs the Antique Roadshow was making a real hash of chairing the show. As for American MSM Putin said that it was all controlled everywhere by the U S and he is correct.

Thanks James. I can’t wait to see a clip from MSNBS’s Rachel Madcow, as she gives this story to the gullible public. She really looks like she believes the stuff coming out of her mouth and I can’t begin to imagine what her home dinner time discussions are like 🤦🏻‍♀️

The anger/rage that the legacy media portray against Trump never ceases to amaze me. I wonder if some of them will actually move to Canada when he wins?

None did last time!! Hypocryts.

Of course they won't - they didn't last time he won! It's just meaningless garbage that spews out of their mouths.

Wishful thinking on my part.

The media (or Medianites as Amir Tsarfati calls them), twists everything to sensationalise stories. Who can believe what they read or hear on MSM?

So how do we change it so there is an alternative narrative (i.e. correct truthful reporting) in the mainstream?

How do we make SKY news mainstream and more popular than the others? (Tricky if it's not free to air everywhere like other mainstream sources of news - I mean propaganda.)

It's time to flip the script and show the mainstream media as the frauds they are, so that more people start to wake up and start pushing back against the insanity being foisted upon us.

Thank you very much for this informed corrective. I totally agree with Christine [below] about the MSM having blood on its hands. Ironically, the unfettered media is the greatest challenge to truth.

Yes. the Ministry of Truth (Orwell 1984) hard at work in the USA and much of the Anglo Saxon world,

Changing perceptions of reality and wanting to rewrite history. Hopefully November 2024 and May 2025 ( or even earlier ) will start to see clawback from looney woke thinking and political control

Hate having to wish my life away

It’s the MSM which has blood on its hands. They constantly stoke hatred. They caused the BLM pushing the St George Floyd travesty. A powerful force for evil.

Agree with ever word.

The hysterical mainstream media are unrelenting in their government propaganda. I wonder if they even believe themselves. I was always if the belief that to write "good fiction " that it needed to be relatable. The media puppets aren't even trying nowadays. Oh how well the wuflu scam opened our eyes.

Mainstream media… the real threat to democracy. Not even subtle in their partisan propaganda masquerading as ‘journalism’.

Any wonder countless millions of us have switched these hacks off, with their politically and ideologically motivated agendas no longer hidden but arrogantly broadcast without an ounce of shame or self awareness.

Their relentless campaign of deliberate misinformation and deceit proving only one thing; those not captured by the left’s gender bending, climate change panicking, racially dividing totalitarian mindset, are well and truly over the target and have them running scared.

I sincerely hope you are correct. I do agree that millions of us have tuned out. However, obtaining accurate news has to be a deliberate choice. I suspect that involves only a relative minority. The rest float, this way and that, upon a sea of blissful ignorance. It is incumbent upon those of us that care to draw forth a sufficient enough storm upon the waters so as to disturb their tranquillity.
