How news reporting is controlled - part 7 of 7 - file sharing & campaign groups

Great work Rob! Truly enlightening series

[systemanic]

Great video, very good info & very articulated throughout.This should be shown in my college media class, sadly I doubt it'll be, & if it did they'd just label it as nonsense & call it 'bad research by someone who dosnt know how the industry works'.Yet we believe the mainstream news.The stuff about Michael Moore is spot on.I remember a college tutor saying "hes good at what he does", what? he gets mainstream coverage, hes part of the agenda.

[Animatiotron]

I have a question for you Rob what does "one common British culture" exactly mean ?

[robag88]

@Animatiotron

What's the context of the phrase?

[Animatiotron]

@robag88 Its from UKIP website . UKIP policies->immigration. I know from your website that you are involved with that political group so I was just wondering what does one common British culture really means ?

[robag88]

@Animatiotron

I interpret it to mean civic nationalism (natuionalism based on political and geographical identity, a shared language and a shared set of laws and customs).

[MULESLAX]

Ah, finally all done. I feel so educated now.

[zombiiination]

lol 3:16

[robag88]

Not that it would stop anyone hehe

[contrafib]

You're a legend, Rob! I like all your stuff. V interested in your opinions on Zeitgeist (plus sequel), Peter Joseph, Alex Jones and 'The Obama Deception'. I think it all fits together in the broad theme of trying to wake the sleeping masses, don't you think??

[robag88]

At some point i'll be writing an article / video about the entire conspiracy theory phenomenon as a whole, as there's a lot of really good and bad stuff floating around under that banner.

[contrafib]

I'll look forward to that, but please make the point that calling anyone who challenges official government versions of things 'conspiracy theorists' is actually a way of putting the masses off these people, as the term seems to conjure an image of some slightly sinister and disturbed way of thinking. Anyway, keep up the good work, mate!

[robag88]

Oh of course. I'll be covering the character assassination tactics and branding methods used at both ends of the spectrum. I won't try to tell people which conspracies are true or not, but help them define some reliable methods for sorting the ridiculous from the credible :)

[contrafib]

Sweet. Any ideas approximately how long it'll be before it appears? And which film reviews are in the works?? Cheers.

[robag88]

It'll be months before get a video out on conspiracy theories. New film reviews will mainly be video versions of analysis that are currently on my site in text form - Bladerunner, Hellraiser, updated 2001 analysis etc.

[no1gr]

thank you for this. Very interesting :)

[KajiCarson]

This was a superb documentary.

[danielmurray04]

thank you for you time...be in touch I'll.

[partya11night20]

Excellent vid!

[surname07]

The most important information I have heard all year!

Thanks!

[ditbot]

VERY GOOD!

I really enjoyed watching this series and found it very interesting. I think I need to watch it again though, it's a lot to rap ones head around!

I also am a huge fan of your film analysis. One that came to mind a lot when watching this was your analysis on 'The Matrix' for fairly obvious reasons.

Keep em' coming man!

[LearnedMole]

This series is outstanding. You have very clearly concisely, and constructively covered the systemic risk of media bias that our society faces. I particularly liked your educational approach on how to avoid being manipulated by biased content. Thank you for taking the time to produce this.

[robag88]

You're welcome :)

[FlyingRabbitsWow]

Where do you get your national news from then rob?

[robag88]

From a mixture of the various sources mentioned in the video. I would never pick a single news source and use it as a primary template.

[plenty2see]

I wrote a short article on the subject of corporate owned newspapers v independants or what was left of them, 90 per cent were corporatised by 2 media companies Australian and Irish, and 10 per cent were independant , I posted it on a yahoo opinion page , I got 7 comments, none of whom understood the question or made an opinion about it , the comments were perochial like the waikato times is the best , etc,

[plenty2see]

after reading the the Otago daily times for a few years , and comparing it with other papers it does print stories and views that are either not in other papers or have a more indepth anilysis, I guess because they dont have the agendas that are behind the multinational media owned papers.

[robag88]

Great to see someone following up and exploring their own local media. If you can spare the time I recommend you do something to spread the word to your community about what you've found - say a small webpage or short video :)

[plenty2see]

that definitely sounds like something im comfortable with, so can you recommend a format I should use to do it, say film myself or do a vice over explaining the ownership and their varied political interests and agenda spacific motivations, and compare it to the independant dailys different reporting etc. then post it up on you tube. your advice would be great thanks.

[robag88]

I find it's generally good to get a variety of feedback before distributing a polished piece of info. I'd write a short article first - easy to read and straight to the point - show it to people you know, and then update the article accordingly. After that it all depends on what technical skills you have and how much time you can put in.

[plenty2see]

thanks for the insightfull research you have done, ive just discovered after using your research techniques that here in New Z EALAND THEIR IS ONLY ONE MAJOR daily newspaper left that is independantly owned by NZ shareholders, the rest are owned by large media organisations like Fairfax , APN , ACP, MEDIA, the newspaper is The Otago Daily Times, its pricipal owner is Allied Press, which is a otago company formed especially to beat off an international takeoverbid

[jackstokes1985]

Good stuff Rob, a nice series of videos, keep the coming

[swordofisis]

Keen! I love it between the lines! Brilliant!

[thumminxy]

Fantastic work Rob!

[33hirtz]

Thank you for your work. Much appreciated.

[wondnaereh]

Forgive my rudness, please, I've been distracted lately and unhappy as well. Not your fault, I was not aware of my tone intul I just read it again now. Sorry. You are very good at what you do.

[wondnaereh]

I love your film analysis, but these choose your news series suck ass, BIG TIME! I mean OMG they SUCK!!!! Do movie reviews again, drop this shit already! Thanks!

[robag88]

Well, you've favorites a lot of 2012, reptilian, millile hits WTC rubbish. At least these vids are based in reality. I think you could learn a lot from them.

[wondnaereh]

true, it's just they are so drawn out. I just can't stay interested long enough to grasp. The film analysis gets me from the moment it starts to the moment it ends,

[swordofisis]

put down the liquor and the diet soda and read a book!

[JakeANowhereMan]

GOOD Stuff Good WORK!

[Estamio]

Very Good. The Best News Analysis anywhere.

(Don't watch the news----Watch the News!)

Thanks.

[jonnyhboy94]

Rob, have you got any other short films planned for the future?

[robag88]

For the time being I've shelved all my film projects because the funding for films is specifically designed to exclude white film makers. That's across the board in the UK right now.

Am hoping to build up enough funds of my own to put a new fiction film project into production by the end of this year.

[timeofthedark]

Fantastic 7 videos! I wonder if you would consider doing more quite like this, but focusing on the current agenda of globalisation, referencing the Lisbon Treaty among other things? I'm not sure if you "believe" in them, but I'm sure you could make a series of excellent vids on The Illuminati or the New World Order.

[robag88]

I'm not convinced the Illuminati exists, but the topic of globalization definitely interests me. There's an article about it on my site already.

The next political vid I do will probably be an expose of the widespread smearing of white people as "racists" in government funded "anti-discrimination" campaigns.

A video on the works of Anthony C Surron could be good as well.

[robag88]

A series on how to make sense of "conspiracy theories" could be worthwhile as well. There's a lot of confusion out there on that right now.

[timeofthedark]

I think the Anthony C. Sutton one would be fantastic man, I checked ebay & amazon for some of his books, but they're few and far between as well as costing a fair few quid. I'm sure whichever videos you choose to make and upload will be more than worth watching anyway!

[BcallingDB]

awesome series of vids.

[grnlfe01]

Brilliantly Presnented

[Stinger503]

Great series! Thanks, very informative!
