    Yet Another Good Journalist, John Pilger... "...This did not deter the best and worst of American journalism uniting to help stage-manage her beatific return to Elizabeth, West Virginia, with the Times reporting the Pentagon's denial of "embellishing" and that "few people seemed to care about the controversy". According to the Post, the whole affair had been "muddied by conflicting media accounts". George Orwell described this as "words falling upon the facts like soft snow, blurring their outlines and covering up all the details". Thanks to the freest press on earth, most Americans, according to a national poll, believe Iraq was behind the 11 September attacks. "We have been the victims of the biggest cover-up manoeuvre of all time," says Jane Harman, a rare voice in Congress. But that, too, is an illusion. ...Americans, says Time magazine, live in "an eternal present". The point is, they have no choice. The "mainstream" media are now dominated by Rupert Murdoch's Fox television network, which had a good war. The Federal Communications Commission, run by Colin Powell's son Michael, is finally to deregulate television so that Fox and four other conglomerates control 90 per cent of the terrestrial and cable audience. Moreover, the leading 20 internet sites are now owned by the likes of Fox, Disney, AOL Time Warner and a clutch of other giants. Just 14 companies attract 60 per cent of the time all American web-users spend online. The director of Le Monde Diplomatique, Ignacio Ramonet, summed this up well: "To justify a preventive war that the United Nations and global public opinion did not want, a machine for propaganda and mystification, organised by the doctrinaire sect around George Bush, produced state-sponsored lies with a determination characteristic of the worst regimes of the 20th century..." http://www.johnpilger.com/print/133038[^] Later,

              If they are so secret and dark, how do you know they exist? Are you a member? Do you know a friend of a friend whose uncle knew someone who was close friends with a member? What is the exact mechanism of control these secret, dark societies utilize? Or does any media outlet that produces something you disagree with prove that they are part of this lurking evil?

                Ever since Pilger blamed excess cancer rates in Iraq on the presence of depleted uranium I have begun to take any work of his with a grain of salt. I generally respect his work however, though claiming that FOX dominates the American media is quite a stretch.

                              I've gotta agree with you there! I actually enjoy exploring conspiracy theories and Illuminati theories and stuff like that.
