    Default Mainstream News - how it's changing

    It's widely thought that mainstream news has had its day now, firstly with the number of newspapers being sold, both broadsheets and tabloids, and secondly concern about the political bias and propaganda demonstrated by newsreaders on TV.

    While waiting to see what Elon Musk will be doing next, and taking into account his stance on freedom of speech and his purchase of Twitter now X, the following video seems particularly relevant right now which instead puts emphasis on Local News.

    "Sam Anthony, CEO of YourNews.com joins the program to share his one of a kind news site where people across the country can see local, state and national news. He also shares his amazing experience with hundreds of closed news divisions all across the country. He has watched first hand how the mainstream media has completely collapsed. He explains how we are seeing a paradigm change that will impact our entire society and he is on the forefront of the revolution. Learn more and engage at YourNews.com"

    A New Era has arrived and the Mainstream Media is Officially Done w/ Sam Anthony

    I would like to believe it. But I won't until these companies literally go out of business, or are sold off, and thousands of redundancies result.

    A number of these publishers and broadcasters need to face more serious consequences, such as public enquiries and inquests, if not tribunals. How that would work (if it could even be pulled off) and what court it would take place in, I've no idea. Mainstream media is a giant rotten mess. If legal mechanisms exist capable of exposing their crimes and bringing them to account, I dare say a change of government would first be necessary. Maybe Trump's the man to do it in the US -- over here...? To wipe our media industrial complex clean, first you'd have to do it in Westminster (one props up the other, and has for many years).

    It has gotten so bad that if one has been paying attention it can be predicted what is going to be said before it is even said minus some trivial details.
    The redundancy is meant to program the minds of the viewers in mass.
    All these national and local news outlets suggest, on the surface, diversity. However, they all are saying very similar things, no dissension between them.
    No dissension? Really? That's not what a walk though the world looks like. People are seeing plenty of things the media is clearly suppressing to the rest of the flock.
    A good reason why an attempt at social engineering on a grand scale.


    Fiction can have eerie truths woven within them regarding what is happening in our shared world, no?

    The fight for truth is on - BBC
    (1:30)
    A short and hypocritical video from the BBC, who's well known for reporting with a left wing bias.

    Nobody does hypocrite better than the BBC. Left-wing bias is an understatement. They're so far left it's a wonder they haven't capsized. This from a company that consistently boasts its "impartiality".

    And their bold proclamation, "We'll verify the facts", should be "we'll verify only the convenient facts". What a joke. The other networks are no better.

    Indeed, they do prop one another up. The only way I feel this will happen would be as part of a general collapse, or a much much bigger portion of UK society to turn their backs completely, and that will only happen either organically (i hope not, as I'm fed up with waiting for them to catch up) or because of something happening which destroys trust overnight. No legal mechanisms exist to assist this, as that entity exists soley to prop up establishment interests.
    So - grassroots movement is the only way to get real change happening.

    Not quite sure which thread to put this on, but this seems a good as any.

    Marion Stokes recorded over 750,000 hours of mainstream media news footage from 1977 to 2012. All this footage has been archived and is in the process of being transferred to digital media. In the 1970s she was noticing strange inconsistencies in the way the media coverage of stories, especially in how news was covered in the U.S. conflict with Iran. She had quite an interesting life.
