  • It is not called programming for any other reason than to brainwash in mass...

  • There is a big problem when the same controllers of our money system control our legislative body. Can you not see it is monopoly corporatism?

  • TV is nothing more than a medium to mold public opinion and for social engineering. Journalist, anchors, etc. are all media whores. Turn it off and read.

  • Sometimes visit my source as well I give an in debt analysis.

  • Looks like I'm ahead of you on that idea, I barely watch TV anymore due to the things you've mentioned, more or less it's infotainment, I still read the Newspaper (online & offline) and listen to the news mostly on podcastings from different sources.

  • i think you are an intelligent man, with a great message. do you operate this channel???
