The Propagandist Media

 

The Propagandist Media

 Josef Goebbels was a Nazi, and chief propagandist for the Nazi Party, and then Reich Minister of Propaganda from 1933 to 1945. He was one of Adolf Hitler's closest and most devoted acolytes, known for his skills in public speaking and the use of the news media to influence public opinion in Germany in the 1930’s and 1940’s.

 Josef Goebbels would be proud of our American left-wing propagandist news media machine that creates positive myths about our leftist politicians and issues, and either withholds positive news about the opposition, or flat out and out lies about them.

 Once prestigious newspapers of record like the New York Times, and many other newspapers and magazines and radio and TV outlets, are nothing more than propaganda tools for the emerged Marxist left.  The few news outlets that try to report the straight truth, are reviled as “racist”, or “white supremacist”, or of “spreading misinformation”.  In effect, the left-wing propagandists create false news, and then attack those trying to report the truth.

 It is a sad state of affairs, when a corrupt and biased news media can affect the outcomes of elections, including a presidential election, by hiding and obfuscating the actual news.  An example is Hunter Biden’s laptop and how its contents implicate the corrupt Biden crime family.  There are myriad other example of media lying and cover-up, like holding back positive news about the the first successful vaccine until after the election, and on and on.

 We are not all gullible sheep in this country, slavishly watching and reading left-wing media.  A quick survey shows that national left-wing newspapers like the New York Times and Washington Post are continuing to lose paid circulation, while the right-center or neutral newspaper, The Wall Street Journal, continues as the number one newspaper in circulation in the country.  Similarly, the number one news outlet is Fox News, while CNN, MSNBC and the networks continue to hemorrhage viewers.

 So, all is not lost.  Abraham Lincoln’s famous quote is - “You can fool all the people some of the time and some of the people all of the time, but you cannot fool all the people all of the time.”    If enough people stop being fooled by the current band of Marxists in Washington, perhaps we can save our great republic.
