I'm done b/c I'm tired of simpletons like you who cannot get their head around the most simple linguistic concept, it's boring trying to explain the obvious. Aside from keeping out of other people's discussions, you have completely missed the point, and you are continuing to rant on without having a clue what this discussion was about. Try connecting no and where & your and self together, they're both one word. Looks like someone failed Grade school.

Unfortunately there are a lot of people who think that ManKind is "basically good" but we see that we are not "basically good" we have desires that really put other people in a negatively controlled environment. We need control but not the kind that is being distibuted by wicked, corrupt and debauch leaders. Yes. We all still need Jesus!

great video... i have always questioned the myth that the media is liberal. but there is always something that someone says that makes you think otherwise. its all manipulation.

I have already agreed that the bigger bias is to the status quo. In fact, I've argued the same point before even seeing this video. However, to say it doesn't matter is an overstatement of the facts.
For example, Chomsky has already stated that voting for Obama is the lesser of two evils. So if the media is biased in its support for Obama, then they are helping to make a difference.

You're done because you're wrong. It is definitly capitalism in crisis, the system is failing because there is no more room for expansion. Under capitalism the worker must sell him/her self out just so a business can be profitable. Now on top of that they want that same worker to bail the bosses out with worker tax dollors. That is by no means no where near any kind of socialism. You have to do a better job connecting the dots for your self.

Chomsky's point was to say that journalists must conform to the status quo, that they must slant themselves toward their corporate masters or else they will not be printed, broadcasted or have a job. It doesn't matter if they are socialists or whatever.

Try to connect the dots when ppl refer to 'corporate socialism' it does not require a scientific explanation. I'm done here.

Where in socialist theory does saving big business exist? Or are you just labeling anything you disapprove of "socialism"? Every socialist I know from every stripe of socialism thinks that saving big business is the stupidest thing they've seen in a long time.
Just call it what it is, capitalism in crisis.

I try to assume nothing, you are making the assumptions.
The concerns of the "higher ups" are at a much macro and amoral level. Journalist will be reviewed, after the fact, based on ratings and balanced with the ability to keep sponsors. What they sneak-in within that range, is clearly open to bias.
In fact, some of the most successful "news" personalities are blatantly and patently biased. I do agree that the bigger bias does go to the status quo in favor of big business and big brother.

Depressions will happen when the unprofitable are allowed to fail. Saving them is not part of it, that would be socialism. |
