Elite Media Declare War on the American People
January 09, 2016

In the December 7 & 14 issue of this newspaper, this writer reported on the case of AMERICAN FREE PRESS reader Ron Avery of Texas and his lawsuit against the Houston Chronicle, which is based on the view that the mainstream media is actively working against the American people. The bigger picture here is that a “weaponized” media that is aligned with the state—not simply a biased corporate media—is controlling what we read, see, and hear for strategic reasons.

With nonstop undeclared wars abroad and a string of suspicious shootings at home weighing ever more heavily upon Americans, the pro-war New York Times rolled out a full-bore propaganda arsenal December 5 that seems to declare war on domestic gun rights, while presenting a fearful worldview that seeks to justify even more military violence abroad.

Echoing the late 19th-century “yellow journalism” dished out by the rival Hearst and Pulitzer newspapers that sensationalized the news and helped spark the Spanish-American War, today’s information technologies and 24-hour news cycles have brought media warmongering to a whole new level, severely disfiguring Americans’ sense of reality.

Consider the Times’s so-called “reporting” December 5 about yet another “mass” shooting—in this case the one which reportedly happened in San Bernardino, California December 2.

Highlighted with a rare front-page staff editorial headlined “End the Gun Epidemic in America*,” that day’s “news” blitzkrieg peddled a highly intensified fear of Islam with a flimsy account of that shooting, allegedly involving an Islamic man and wife. This scenario invoked an Islamic State (ISIS) invasion, moving the threat in the public mind from the Middle East’s distant sands to American soil.

To underscore how seriously the Times regarded that day’s edition, the paper’s anti-gun screed was recognized in a separate Page A15 piece as the first in-house editorial on its front page in nearly 100 years. Thus, the Times reserved a special place in history for placing a bullseye on the Second Amendment to the United States Constitution by calling for a deep ban on all “assault weapons” of the AR-15 variety and the relevant ammunition.

That clarion call is based on the story line that Syed Rizwan Farook and his wife, Tashfeen Malik, are said to have left their child with a grandparent, grabbed assault weapons, and opened fire in a “rampage” that “k**led 14 people and injured 21 others,” the paper noted, breathlessly adding that Ms. Malik is a “woman who pledged allegiance to the Islamic State in a Facebook post.”

The Times, though, then noted that Facebook staff took the posting down on December 2, the very day of the shooting, before it could be verified. So the Times simply took the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) and Facebook at their word—a journalistic no-no—even though the FBI has been caught red-handed setting up terrorist attacks by baiting vulnerable people to take part as fall-guys and accomplices in false-f**g operations that justify the ongoing war on terror. AFP writers and columnist Paul Craig Roberts have outlined several such cases over the years in this newspaper.

In addition, the Times, using the power of suggestion, claimed that the 2016 p**********l campaign landscape is forever altered regarding the threat of Islam in general and ISIS in particular.

“The Republican candidates for president angrily demanded that the United States face up to a new world war, one that has breached its borders, threatens the safety of Americans and has brought the menace of Islamic terrorism deep into the homeland,” the Times bellowed in a front-page piece astride the anti-gun editorial.

We need to stop supporting these rags,if they started too get massive subscription cancellations they would change or go out of business.

Down here I get the Naples News, bought from a convience store. No subscription! They are a wholly owned front for Scripts. They are always trying to get us to buy The "NYC TIMES" and the "Post" even offering a free trial! I wouldn't be reading them except the other paper "the News Press" is worse! They ALL need a Hammer and Sickle Logo on the front page! Like the "letters to the editor: 1 out of every fifty conservative, heavily edited, and shortened. the rest are from the same ten radical l*****t writers. And almost all articles are bylined from the AP, the official mouthpiece of the American party! A long time ago I asked them why they didn't vet the AP articles? They said they were REQUIRED to print it exactly as it came from the wire! Most are so radical left that they bleed c*******m!

My local paper started to report all left wing stuff a couple of years ago a lot of reprints from the NYT. When I cancelled the guy I spoke with didn't even try too convince me it wasn't true.I know they are hurting because when they call to sell it the rates are dirt cheap but they will survive this is California after all.

RWNJ

Nope. The government would simply subsidize them.

You forgot to mention that the Democratic candidates blamed c*****e c****e and right wing extremists, and clamored for more gun control. I understand they also blamed the same culprits for the Federal debt, r****m in Zimbabwe, and the depletion of the ozone layer, and pointed to the Big Bang as a classic example of the need to regulate rifles that can accept high capacity magazines.

Apparently, they feel that Bush is responsible for everything else.

Well, considering that all the major media outlets are owned by a handful of people, who also happen to be majority shareholders of the Federal Government Corporation, therefor on it's board of directors - it is perfectly reasonable for them to facilitate the implementation of that corporations business plan. When you control the Government, it's marketing functions AND it's public relations functions, it is only reasonable that they all stick to the same plan.

YUP, RWNJ, "The government," ["WE THE PEOPLE"] would "subsidize them;" along with the quiet and deceptive importation [by the tens, possibly hundreds of thousands] of un-vetted, undocumented "refugee/terrorists" from war-torn Muslim countries, [over the past 7 years], and then [along with Saudi Arabia], their housing, medical, t***sportation, education, mosques, schools, millions of acres of "training" camps? and weapons? "F & F?". Hummmmmmmmmmm. And that's to say nothing of all those drug & gun cartels, sex-s***ers, gang-bangers and terrorists who were waiting at our southern border for this administration's world invite to "COMEON IN;" and, of course, those overstaying their hospitable hosts ["US"] "Foreign Exchange," student visas - where have I heard THAT before??? "Foreign Exchange" student visa? Where, where, where??? OH YEA, I remember; "BHB!!!" GOOOOOOOOOOO TRUMP

Thank you Sting
Now if only more Americans can put this together, especially v**ers:
The Z*****ts/Big Money funded OB"s campaign. That and their MSM put him in office.
He has a mission, he has been given, and it is underway.
All this chaos to come will be by design, and both parties have put this mess in place.
Out of chaos, a NWO.

You got that right;
The Times is going under.
They have a REALLY BAD business model.
They write lies and BS, and think enough people will continue to buy their rag.
Well their "advertisers" may continue to attempt to keep the sinking ship afloat.
