US media fears competition

The Broadcasting Board of Governors chairman Walter Isaacson stated that his organization needs more resources to combat its enemies like RT, Iranian Press TV and Venezuela's TeleSur. Earlier today Isaacson told RT that he does not think of Russia or RT as an enemy but is he contradicting himself? Filmmaker Danny Schechter believes that Isaacson was trying to play on fear in order to get more money for his organization.

Face it Isaacson, people know US Mainstream Media is completely co-opted.

Great situation going on here in the US:

The Pentagon is burning books & the Chairman of The Broadcasting Board of Governors, Walter Isaacson, is calling Independent News Media his enemies.

Walter, what happens when your enemies are the ones that are telling the truth?

Who then, would your real enemy be?

They are afraid of RT.

While mainstream media covers insipid horseshit, RT covers relevant issues.

Isaacson is a Zionist who runs the Aspen Institute, which is an American Bilderberg stepchild. . .Thank you Danny Schechter!

I AM A GREAT FAN OF RT AND PRESS TV, THEY HAVE SUBSTANCE IN THIER REPORTING UNLIKE THE FOX , CNN AND THE LIKES... THEY ARE SIMPLY US PROPAGANDA MACHINE

The internet is heavily manipulated by government and industry. They barrage comment boards with their creative writing to sway public opinion. People are being employed to drown out the voice of the average citizen with the sheer volume and bias of their postings.

@shinjosai they don't bring real news... they hide facts about the kremlin... the same government which is listed as 146th from 159 in corruption index...

[MrMickyMouth]

i sometimes manipulate myself to get out the message

[Sexisttroll]

@narutocaprirequest2 actually to me RT is not real world news... they show little or nothing about the Russian mafia... they're financed by the kremlin... which according to many people, such as fomer kgb spy alexander litvinenko, is controlled by the russia oligarchy... for example they showed 2000 victims of the ossetia war... when there where only 365... they exaggerate this claims and put no retraction... or were are the reports of the aluminum wars between the russian oligarchy?

[911insidejob81]

I trust much more RT than FOX or CNN or any other media
