Most of us have been complaining about a lot of things and mostly blaming the Government and the people in Congress and the President. Yes, I will agree that they should receive the bulk of the blame, But we never hear about those that make all the problems spread and make all these things impossible to control.
The people that I am talking about are the entire News Media. Think back to WW one and WW two. With only a few news caster reporting, the people were kept abreast of what was going on overseas. This alone controlled the amount of information going out over the air, to our enemies.
The modernizing of printing, Radio, with Television , Telephone and the Wire Service, brought front line information to the people. It also gave more information to our enemy’s, so they knew what was about to happen, This made it possible for the enemy to kill more of our solders and sink more of our ships. Yes our leaders knew this, but they chose not to do anything, Why? It was because we have the freedom of speech and not the good sense on how or when to use it.
Now think of all the wars or conflicts this nation has been involved in these past sixty-five years and along with the media before. All the Satellite and instant messaging, Cell phones, visual equipment that is being used today.
Our enemy can see and hear what is going on before we know it here in the US. But this is not the worst of what happens! The news industry is so News hungry they will print or say anything, rather if it is true or not. They make sure that every person, young and old, will hear about a high school student, using a gun to shoot others with. The next thing that happens in like a dominos falling. What Monkey see or hear, Monkey will do! It goes from one part of the country to the next, each wanting to be in the news and repeat that action and on and on it goes.
There needs to be a place where the freedom to speak starts and ends. We have a run away nation of people that do not have any common sense. They never learned right from wrong from going to school or church of from their parents. Let me ask, do you think it is too late to make a few changes in our country or maybe the world?
The news media ( all of them) have done more damage to you me and the country, than we will ever know. They are like a run away fire, a dam that broke and once that happens it is too late to fix or repair.
How does one go about getting a message across to the ones that need to hear this stuff? I doubt if you really want to hear what I would do. The population, In some areas would defiantly decline or be crippled.
I am but one, who thinks about these things and also one that does nothing to stop it. People that work together can accomplish many things, A person alone can only make their thoughts known!
I am but one, that gets mad at Idiots .
