    Default How CNN fakes news reports: must see

    .
    This footage documenting an entire 'Wag the Dog' faked incident in Iraq is really quite extraordinary.

    Watch carefully.

    so much falseness out there... I guess there's no reason to assume "crisis actors" are unique to the US.

    our memories are so malleable, they can be reshaped pretty easily & here we see a few of the methods used to shape perspective by that propaganda outlet we so willingly let into our homes (sometimes multiple rooms of our home!).

    Luckily the equipment that used to be solely theirs (audio & video recording with a platform to show it on) is now in everyone's hands & catching these things should be more and more frequent.

    CNN isn't the only one.. but they've certainly had a lot of practice at "fake news"...




    Do they, like practice this stuff first, or give a "pre filming" talk to everyone?


    Hmm, that white cop looks familiar.....



    Seems like they enjoy using Green screens, but baring that.. almost ANY tactic to lie about the location of their reporting ( to better sell the story???)



    Evidence of CNN ALSO colluding with HRC to push D. Trump's campaign?... hey why not... CNN also tells us only to trust them....


    Remember back when Ebola was going to kill everyone?


    I could keep going...

    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Ok, there's one side... what about the COUNTER argument? ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~


    CNN footage of Saudi in the 1990's WAS real? (famous "blue screen" that everyone makes fun of):

    Quote Once again, conspiracy theorists have jumped to conclusions without doing research. This time they believe a CNN news report was faked in front of a bluescreen. Let's break down why this is false.

    Actually, that's all I could find.. but it's fairly compelling.. besides, "green screen" tech back in the 1990's was total crap so it makes sense.. they certainly are using it (green screen tech) now however (and it's still obvious.. haha)

    Hollywood style! US Commentator // Crisis Actors // UK Police Stage Counter-Terror Training Exercise in London?

    Whats the difference between a ' terrorist attack' a drill and a false flag ????
    apart from real casualties ......Not as much as you would expect with blood,
    smoke , gun shots explosions it can be hard to spot the difference especially
    on film and news reports later !!

    Its coming up to the 10th anniversary of the suspected 7/7 'false flag' that
    killed and maimed many innocent bystanders in the exact locations mock drills
    were going on...Uhm where did that happen before ? Airforce drill and
    exercises on 9/11 !!




    UK Police Stage Counter-Terror Training Exercise in London



    Published on 30 Jun 2015

    The exercise dubbed Operation Strong Tower has been planned for six months and
    is not connected to the recent attack at a north African beach resort. Deputy
    Assistant Commissioner Maxine de Brunner says the Met has never before put on
    an exercise of this magnitude and that it would be "very realistic."

    there should be (it might help a little).

    I think there used to be a journalistic pride, but any more it's just plastic people pushing agendas that are handed to them....

    I'd rather see the CNN clip that lines up with that footage (if that footage was used in the press) than know where it came from (that could be closing in on a logical fallacy, the messenger is not important, the message is)

    This is what I was looking for , obviously on the surface it is innocent enough,
    but as with many other scenarios it can be exploited and hard up actors
    do not usually ask many questions if they need cash ....

    Looking on the web just found this company which is interesting , this does not mean they
    do nefarious jobs as their job is legit and important in the right conditions for training, drills etc.
    They have an impressive list of clients.http://crisiscast.com/clients/.

    I'm not suggesting they were used in Nice , or this company does anything dodgy either.
    But I thought I'd post it as I was looking into the subject after bluestflames post above...
    The website looks professional so I presume it real. I'm sure others in the
    community have seen this before , and there are a few vids on u'tube I just noticed.

    Yes, it is a valid question.

    I would like to see the CNN clip that matches this footage, as well, but there doesnt seem to be any media footage from anyone. Why would they go to such lengths to do this for no cameras? The only thing I could find are the pictures from the Daily Mail: http://www.dailymail.co.uk/wires/ap/...osul-east.html They say it happened in Hurriyah on October 31, 2016, and the spot looks very similar to the one in the video. Where's the CNN video, though? I dont see CNN covering this at all, really.

    I wasnt making an ad hominem attack, either. This footage seems too good to be true, so I would like to know where it came from and why it was released. For all I know, it was released by our government as disinfo to muddy the conspiracy waters. It could have been done by Iraqis for whatever reason. Maybe it is an insurance scam. Who knows what it is. It is nice that it was perfectly framed for this 'security cam' on a street that doesnt look to have anything to secure.

    I believe this logical fallacy question came up once before between us regarding the work of Jim Fetzer, who used a story from a joke website in one of his books and then said it didnt matter if the site was comedic because it is a logical fallacy to attack the messenger. Yet, this is the most ridiculous thing I have ever heard and is another reason not to trust Fetzer. The site invented a story saying Ringo Starr admitted that Paul died and was replaced, but Ringo never said that. It was a story meant for entertainment, and Fetzer put it in his book, saying that the source did not matter. Absurd.

    This thread is about whether CNN and other mainstream media can be trusted, but you question the validity of asking where information originates? We might as well trust CNN if the source does not matter.

    I looked all over and couldn't find that video used, but that doesn't mean it's not out there i guess. The graffiti on the wall in the vidoe was black, the graffiti in that link you posted was red, so not the same car bombing from my analysis.

    I agree that it's a bit "convenient" that we have this footage.

Who knows what it is. It is nice that it was perfectly framed for this 'security cam' on a street that doesnt look to have anything to secure.
    I believe this logical fallacy question came up once before between us regarding the work of Jim Fetzer, who used a story from a joke website in one of his books and then said it didnt matter if the site was comedic because it is a logical fallacy to attack the messenger. Yet, this is the most ridiculous thing I have ever heard and is another reason not to trust Fetzer. The site invented a story saying Ringo Starr admitted that Paul died and was replaced, but Ringo never said that. It was a story meant for entertainment, and Fetzer put it in his book, saying that the source did not matter. Absurd.
    This thread is about whether CNN and other mainstream media can be trusted, but you question the validity of asking where information originates? We might as well trust CNN if the source does not matter.
    I did not mean to infer that you were exercising that logical fallacy, just that the line of questioning can be a bit distracting & ultimately pointless.

    Jim F. didn't even give the message any consideration, the message is what matters, not the messenger; if he had learned from say CNN that Paul was replaced it would still be just as wrong right? The source may need some meta consideration, but it has nothing to do with the message.

    Truth with still be true no matter what mouth it comes from, looking to the source usually ends up being a distraction when the message at hand needs to be explored.

    IMO, until I see this video (from the OP) being used in the media somewhere the "message" is pointless; this type of thing must have corroborating evidence. It's not very useful on it's own, though the implications are interesting.

    This footage documenting an entire 'Wag the Dog' faked incident in Iraq is really quite extraordinary.

    Watch carefully.

    And (in case anyone still can't quite see the connection) a good example of the potential usefulness to the true perpetrators of the "flat Earth" psyop. One needs to extrapolate just a little ... and you can see how the "experts" can easily dismiss this whole video because the author is a "flat Earther" and therefore a complete nutjob.

    My first encounter with CNN staging an event was the aereal view of the pulling down of the statue of Saddam.
    Later I heard of many others, including from a woman who worked in Serbia during the war and who saw that CNN were getting corpses from the local morgues to stage "proofs" of massacres.

    That's great. I never knew that. Here's the detail from the SourceWatch page:

    Toppling the statue of Saddam Hussein



    Toppling the statue of Saddam Hussein was a staged event, by U.S. soldiers, for the media. A Reuters long-shot of Firdos Square where the statue was located (see below) shows that the Square was nearly empty when Saddam was torn down. The Square was sealed off by the U.S. military. The 200 people milling about were U.S. Marines, international press and Iraqis. However, the media portrayed it as an event of the Iraqi people.



    An American military vehicle actually pulled down the statue. Marine Corporal Ed Chin, who temporarily placed a U.S. flag over Saddam's face, became an instant media celebrity. His sister, Connie, appeared on the "Today" show and spoke with her brother via a video hook-up.

    Military Admits Statue Toppling was a Psyops Stunt

    On Point, a US army report on lessons learned from the war, notes that it was a Marine colonel, not Iraqi civilians, who decided to topple the statue. "We moved our [tactical PSYOP team] TPT vehicle forward and started to run around seeing what they needed us to do to facilitate their mission," states a U.S. military officer involved in the operation. "There was a large media circus at this location (I guess the Palestine Hotel was a media center at the time), almost as many reporters as there were Iraqis, as the hotel was right adjacent to the Al-Firdos Square. The Marine Corps colonel in the area saw the Saddam statue as a target of opportunity and decided that the statue must come down." The pyschological team used loudspeakers to encourage Iraqi civilians to assist, packed the scene with Iraqi children, and stepped in to readjust the props when one of the soldiers draped an American flag over the statue. "God bless them, but we were thinking from PSYOP school that this was just bad news," the officer reported. "We didn't want to look like an occupation force, and some of the Iraqis were saying, 'No, we want an Iraqi flag!' So I said 'No problem, somebody get me an Iraqi flag.' " [1]
