Do you never read the newspapers?
Fuck no. Why? Do you?
Winner winner chicken dinner.
Newspaper have but one purpose to a thinking man, and that is to read
between the lines, what they do not say is just as important as what they do say, and what they do say is to be analysed , and dissected for the underlaying narrative being pushed... and then , with a context of the historical understanding of the situation, decoded.
The actual words they print are generally 99% bulllllllshit......
.....and I am a little surprised that anyone in this thread does not get that yet.
Nonsense, followed by more nonsense
Yeah well I guess that explains a fair few of your posts.
Please check out "Gell-Mann amnesia" and "Knolls law"
Realise that journalists are generally jacks of all trades and masters of non, not to mention that "journalism" has fallen a long way, and that much of the trash that makes it to "print" these days, either online or on paper, or that is rattled off on screen/radio, is woke infested trash spewed by junior interns at one shitty hack rag and then regurgitated by all the others....
..... and that is of course if it makes it past the editors, who of course, often, HAVE THEIR ORDERS FROM THEIR SPECIFIC GOVERNMENTS, as to what they can say, and cannot say, what they want them to say, not say, what breeches national security , what is gagged, what their sponsors are sensitive to, what the media organisations OWNERS want them to say, what the lawyers have given the go ahead to release etc etc.
If you think that the media is not used to propagate and disseminate whatever the narrative of the day is by governments and corporations globally, then, I dunno what to tell you.
It is curious fact that you can point to propaganda in history, and people can recognise it, but that people seem to think that propaganda is just something that "used to happen" or that "happens to other people" and then fail to recognise that they are also subjected to propaganda , and that propaganda is very much alive and well and kicking and all around them, all the time TODAY.
"Newspapers" are NOTHING more than another "source" , and the information given by them is to be treated as such, dissected, decoded, taken into context, both historical context, and of the broader subject matter that have synergy with the topic(s) in question.
If you see something in "the newspapers" and automatically believe it , without any critical thinking, or background understanding, or context..... then you are doing it wrong.
And yes, being able to spot what is NOT being said, is just as important as reading what IS being said.
Please be better, this is rudimentary stuff.
