CNN/MNSBC/WaPo/NYT are just Operation Mockingbird at this point for corrupt intelligence agencies. I don't even really mind unhinged leftists sites like The Young Turks. At least people know what they're getting. But, my parents don't understand that Maddow is bullshitting them. There are some honest old school progressives out there like Glenn Greenwald, Matt Taibbi, Aaron Mate, and Jimmy Dore that are worth following. But, they run in the same circles because corporate media won't touch them and labels them Russian disinformation.

It's not much better on the right. I think Hannity is playing to his audience and laughs with liberals after work. Tucker is decent, but I'm not sure if controlled. Bongino seems honest enough. That's about it, other than some decent follows like Sundance at CTH or TechnoFog twitter.

None of these people are journalists. They're entertainers paid to entertain with their opinions. Maddow isn't a journalist, she's the same thing. And that's part of the problem. These channels put these shite stirrers in the prime time slots to tell their viewers it's okay to hold the opinions they have.

Fact.

Its worse than propaganda, it's mind control. They use the same language, just repeatedly slam simple, dumb messages down the throats of the public.
