Mainstream media making viewers more uninformed?

[KNuri1981]

Main stream media ==> Stupefy = Ignorant citizens

[einlea67]

US media does NOT repport on news.... They make the news... in there lie the lies... Dont the US people understand that??? Love from Norway...

[MrFearnaut]

@MrStaxxxy - In order to know lies, you need to watch enough therefor all news is valuable. You just have to be conscious.

[tubegeg]

The Mainstream Media in this country has and continues to do the American people a great disservice. It is full of half-truths, lies, soundbites, and political spin to promote corporation interests and the interests of the two-party dictatorship known as the democrats and republicans alike.

[budoracle]

Gone without:Tobacco 17yrs, Alcohol 8yrs, gasoline 8yrs, TV 21yrs. Much healthier without these addictions

[Ellipser]

They shouldn't even be allowed to be in our living rooms. The disgusting self worship,  the constant banter, the endless lies, they call the shots no more. This ugly, beastly dragon - television media, it still has the arrogance to call itself a "news" program.

[ModernPlague]

There is really NO such thing as "unbiased" points of view. But at least RT addresses real issues in our country instead of focusing on whether Ashton Kucher cheated on Demi Moore, see what I'm saying? Or are you one of those quasi-patriots that hates to hear America criticized, and roots against Russia like it's some opposing sports team? If you love America you should love honest news about what's happening here, instead of being mad at the messengers.

[miketv]

@ModernPlague horseshit. That's an excuse for laziness & bigotry. There are PLENTY of unbiased points of view.

That's the same kind of apathetic attitude that says "nothing is original, all art is a ripoff of someone else's idea". It's a copout. Just because YOU can't find an unbiased view doesn't mean they don't exist.

I'm being completely honest about what's going on: you think you got a revolution, & you conscience is being sold for corporate loyalty.

[MrFearnaut]

All news programs are biased. The key is to watch them all. The truth will reveal itself. This particular video was right on point though.

[MrStaxxy]

@MrFearnaut

But Fox News are not simply giving their point of view, they give an OPINION, they LIE, they takes greeks euro protest, and voilà, russian protest !

[electrictrunk]

Finally, someone is addressing this issue of the dumb down media in this country. No context is right the intelligence is non existent. I watched a China newscast in English the other day I could not believe how informative their news was compared to the U.S. crap news. Our country has decayed tremendously in both intelligence and journalism because the NWO do not want us to critically think. Just soup box news is all it is now what a joke.

[miketv]

@electrictrunk yeah, "finally" ....how autocentric & retarded. People have been reporting on this shit for YEARS. Pull your head out of your bong.

[MrRobtwothirds]

Reuters, and therefore all its subsidiaries is owned by the Rothschilds, and they certainly have an agenda. At least we know RT is a Russian perspective.

[kivresp]

"More uninformed"? Try: "less informed. Poor English discredits all.

[67jedi67]

i know it might sound unbelievable to some of you guys out there but rt really is the least biased mainstream news channel, press tv not too bad either. yes russia and especially iran are painted by the msm as boogeymen but dont you think thats for a reason.. they are not enemies of humanity they are a threat to the u.s.a doctrine of world domination. how many countries has iran invaded recently, and russia? what about the u.s which dominates global media and most global issues?

[miketv]

@67jedi67 ever heard of Reuters? This RT shit is exactly as "unbiased" as Fox & has as much "integrity" as The NY Post.

Talk about boogeymen: RT created the the phrase MSM to keep you all from watching anything but THEIR news. Don't be so damn gullible.

[67jedi67]

@miketv yes, reuters has been owned by the rothschilds for about 150 years it also owns the associated press which supply many media outlets with their latest propaganda. msm is short for mainstream media which is a descriptive term, i dont think rt created it, and rt is actually becoming mainstream now, probably because its pointing out the things going on around us that our own media wont discuss and people are fed up of being lied to. they are seeing the cracks in the big lie that we are free

[miketv]

@67jedi67 you got about 1/2 that right. RT doesn't own truth & they aren't underground, & there are literally thousands of non-MSM news outlets. RT is is just the most clearly biased/bigoted, which is hip right now.

If people hate being lied to, why the fuck do they watch Alyona & Hartmann? People love it. It makes them feel like they've discovered a secret & they're in a club. Psst -- most of us have known all this shit for YEARS. Enough cheerleading. Advance the conversation.

[67jedi67]

@miketv 'order out of chaos' and all that. the same groups who influence and control our nations through banking, media, oil and hereditary wealth were waiting for years to use the 'free market' system to gain access to the largest country in the world and destroy an opposing ideology and threat. they gained access, but it seems they haven't destroyed the threat. you say some of us have known this for years so you admit that they do speak truth then, so why do you deny them any credibility?

[67jedi67]

@miketv i believe the alyona show is pitched to attract fox viewers, its all jazzed up to look cool (like fox and many others) and yes it is biased, all viewpoints are, but most clearly bigoted (more than fox?) simply no. i have been studying the politics and economics behind the worlds systems for almost a decade now and rt headlines issues which are far more relevant than bbc sky fox cnn msnbc. when ussr fell capitalists all over the world tried to steal what they could of the country..

[miketv]

@67jedi67 anyone who's studied political science for 10 years should be able to see the problem with statist media. They have a clear & distinct (& stated) loyalty to the gov't....do you really expect unbiased international news under that setup?

The reason I'm so harsh on them is that their audience is FAR more openly bigoted & biased than consumers of any other media. Read the comments on any RT upload....they're about 80% bigotry toward non-loyal viewers.

This is statism, don't be stupid.

[67jedi67]

@miketv i see many problems in many places, i also see solutions. if i were to set my own media outlet up it would be biased by my beliefs, i would cover the things i believed important in a way i thought best effective. rt is exposing a system of corruption that has come to dominate this planet and must be stopped. biased yes bigoted maybe but they're not wrong. if a biggot is correct in their view, and on such important topics, is they're bigotry not justified? russia is the state i am british

[miketv]

@67jedi67 having a bias cannot make a cause "right" or "wrong". Wanna be a bigot? Fine, at least you admit it. I have no problem when it's openly admitted...it's the lies & hypocrisy that drive me nuts.

What makes RT wrong is that they claim to be the ONLY people reporting the truth. That is not only incorrect, it's entirely unethical. Even in your bigotry you can admit that there are other perspectives that are just as valid, right? +1 for U, -1 for RT

[mogambo55]

@miketv

“What makes RT wrong is that they claim to be the ONLY people reporting the truth.”

In which RT video or publication is this stated?

Most news channels are guilty of unethical reporting including the BBC, Fox, CNN, Al Jazeera and others including RT. They do have some great documentaries and some of the interviews with Western economists and politicians are more candid than you would find on most western news channels.

[miketv]

@mogambo55 in ALL of them, literally. Watch/listen/pay attention.

[mogambo55]

@miketv

So as I thought never actually stated “literally” but possibly implied! If any News channel stated literally that they were the “ONLY people reporting the truth” people would literally turn off in droves!

Having looked at some of your statements you clearly have an axe to grind with RT and its viewers that lacks any objective rationale! The greatest fight you have on your hands is with reality! You are clearly biased and deluded as well as being spammed!

[miketv]

@mogambo55 get over your psych 101 class. I do have an axe to grind with RT. They've got kids like you defending state-controlled media while automatically assuming any criticism MUST be political opposition. It's just not the way the world works.

But, since yr a snarky little prick, Here's a tip if you really want to hear them say it: keep watching after you finish jacking off. You'll hear it.

You sold your conscience for state-run media with tits. lol

[67jedi67]

@miketv i respectfully ask you to refer to the dictionary for the specific definition of some of the words you are using (especially bias and bigot) as parts of your argument are inaccurate. it is precisely personal bias which dictates what you believe is right or wrong. you should explore and dissolve your anger, it can truly blind a person from the more subtle aspects of reality. and i dont think i ever recall rt saying they are the only people reporting truth.

[mogambo55]

@67jedi67

"RT headlines issues which are far more relevant than bbc sky fox cnn msnbc."

Having lived in Europe, Saudi Arabia, and the USA and having watched the news in different continents for many years I would fully agree with your analysis.

[miketv]

@mogambo55 don't be so blind. Nobody's saying THOSE media outlets are any better. I'm saying there are independent media outlets that aren't run by corporate or governmental interests. Want to eat gov't media? Fine, be stupid.

RT & Fox are exactly the same, & they are the worst.

[enkigilgamesh]

City people are bored... everything you do costs something so they sit and watch TV programing. I don't even own a phone or TV. Just a computer. In the city you can't even grow a garden anymore. Laws are made to force you to spend... everything from car seats,to bicycle helmets. Paid parking if you want to go for a hike, skiing or any other out door activity. I moved out of the "Metropolice" city dump and found a nice quiet town. You can pull a U turn on main street with out getting a ticket!

so what you're saying is we should ONLY watch your news, because all others are big doody heads & don't tell the truth....right? Makes sense. Doesn't sound like corporate brainwashing or anything.

[ModernPlague]

@miketv

C'mon, compare RT to anything on mainstream American TV----you'll see which celebrities are divorcing, what Lady Gaga album is popular, who is going to be on the next episode of X Factor, etc.

[miketv]

@ModernPlague ....and that somehow makes RT responsible & unbiased? Great argument!

Seriously, it's brilliant, progressive, & not apathetic at all.... like voting for the lesser of two evils.

If you spend a year away from Christmas, even tell others to not buy you presents either, many would go so far as to call you unfaithful, selfish, or even un-American. That's the mentality of this holiday nowadays. It's a disturbing flaw among the people; they're selfish for expecting them to throw away their money on mostly meaningless gifts that they could use otherwise on furthering their and others, like family, survival in this world. Who profits the most from Christmas? Advertisors, corps.

I am tired of making cell phones for them when i make so little cash, and they get cash from doing some so called "career"

Less people watching main stream media so soon less advertising then no jobs for the lying bastards where will they get jobs then, Imagine the resume well i'm good at lying.

@tubeboy8...... Not one thing u mentioned was "important" There trying 2 say that the mainstream media are leaving facts out and people listen to every single thing they say, just like the fox clip, fox said it was in russia but clearly that clip is from Greece, there trying 2 say that we listen to them yet we aren't open minded therefore we are uninformed about the true facts that is happening not just in the u.s but around the world also

[eraffel]

It's refreshing to hear the real deal....however, this guy seems to be backtracking to cover his missteps. Aren't the Journalism "Professors" the ones who have been churning out these hair wearing heads that we see in the MSM?

[tubeboy8]

What do you mean Americans are uniformed? Most of us know exactly who won American Idol last year or who the top contestants are on Biggest loser or who the starting quarterbacks are in the NFL or where the best 4g reception is or what the best episodes of Glee are or what color underwear Justin Bieber wears.. and many other 'important' issues.

[MyTube22T]

The mainstream media has been using that trick for decades. Notice they never said it was a video shot in Russia. These deceivers narrate a story, while showing something to augment the effect of the bullshit story they are telling. 95% of the uninformed dumb-down public buys it without question. When caught, by others like RT, they always use the "oops, we made a mistake" excuse. That's why I believe nothing I hear and only 10% of what I see on TV andI haven't watched mainstream news in years.

@MyTube22T to be honest, the dumb-down public buys anything, even if i bullcrap something on TV. you just have to expose your opinion out there.

@wilproK The best advice I can give you, and a psychiatrist would probably say this also, is try to effect the things that you have the power to effect. Don't focus too much on what you have no control over. If you feel something is wrong then do what you can to change it.

[GreatBigBore]

@wilproK I felt helpless until the Occupy movement started. We're on a knife edge, but at least now there's hope that enough of us will wake up and start figuring out how to fix things. You're living at a very interesting time. I hope you get to grow old (if you want to, of course).

@JohnEmeryMusic You'd be wrong on that, many Americans are not 'dumb ass fuck' we only appear that way because 1) you live in a different paradigm than we do and you assume anything out of that paradigm is not right, just like every other persons view of the world and 2) there are just a lot of Americans who fuck everything up for the rest of us. A reason for those kinds of morons is because We in the USA are 18th lowest educated in the world Vs yrs ago when we were #1 in 1950

[LtSgt5]

@LtSgt5 Ranked #1 in education in 1950, that drop in education levels is due to the government socializing our education system and watering down our education to fucking useless shit we won't ever use in life. We should home school our children and abandon the public system, Home schooled people end up being far smarter than public school students.

[bamboo4tameshigiri]

@LtSgt5 Home schooled people end up being far smarter than public school students." Bullshit. Its possible but not guaranteed. Two of the most ignorant backwards people who could hardly even read were home schooled. They had ignorant christian parents, therefore they knew very little about the real world.
