Washington Post op-ed writer Richard Cohen sent some people searching for pitchforks today, with a column declaring that he “can understand why Zimmerman was suspicious and why he thought Martin was wearing a uniform we all recognize.” And apparently that opinion was going around among op-ed writers at major newspapers,… …read more

“Democracy becomes a government of bullies tempered by editors.”– Ralph Waldo Emerson
Today’s state-run media gives us knowledge of what is going on in America and around the world… or does it?
Although the media has a damaging 21 percent approval rating according to a recent Gallup poll (I am surprised it is that high), it still seems as though the locomotive of socialism runs full steam ahead because, for the most part, the American people do not know we are a Constitutional Republic, not a democracy. America is ruled by Law, not by opinion or the media’s false polling.
With their socialist-communist agenda behind their reports, they are attempting to bully anyone who stands against their propaganda into submission.
Let’s pull the curtain back on the media so you can see who is doing the reporting.
In 1917, Congressman Oscar Callaway entered a disturbing statement into the congressional record:
J.P. Morgan, a banker and a steel tycoon, hired 12 high-ranking news managers and editors, and asked them to determine the most influential newspapers in America. He wanted to control the policy of the daily press of the United States (that policy being whatever they wanted it to be). The twelve found that it was only necessary to purchase 25 of the greatest newspapers. An agreement was reached, the policy of the papers was bought, and an editor of their choice was placed at each paper to ensure that all published information was in keeping of the new policy. (Again, keep in mind it was their policy.)
Now you know why ABC, CBS, MSNBC, CNN, FOX, etc. are reporting the same content. It is all derived from the same source.
In a nutshell, those who are attempting to rearrange reality to become the reality they want you to believe in control the news media.
Mark Twain rightly stated, “If you don’t read the newspaper, you’re uninformed. If you read the newspaper, you’re misinformed.”
Let me explain…
Richard Salant, former president of CBS news, said: “Our job is to give people not what they want, but what we decide they ought to have.” That’s pretty arrogant, isn’t it?
Walter Cronkite, former CBS news anchor said, “News reporters are certainly liberal and left of center.”
Herman Dismore, foreign editor of the New York Times, said, “The New York Times is deliberately pitched to the liberal point of view.”
Richard Cohen, senior producer for CBS, said, “We are going to impose our agenda on the coverage by dealing with issues and subjects that we choose to deal with.”
America, it is time to turn the television off (Psalm 101:3; 2 Corinthians 6:17). You have two options: stand for truth and demand justice, or become the victims of your own undoing and be trodden under the foot of media oppression.
Let’s take the next step and show you the twisted ideology of those who report the news:

The number of anti-government “patriot” groups, including paramilitary hate organizations, reached an all-time high in 2012, fanned by President Barack Obama‘s reelection and talk of gun control following the Newtown, Conn., elementary school massacre, according to a report issued Tuesday by the Southern Poverty Law Center.
Patriot groups — those dedicated to federal government overthrow in the belief it will confiscate weapons and impose socialism — expanded in number and size for the fourth consecutive year, the law center said. The groups’ recruiting was fueled by the sluggish economy, anxieties about the country’s shifting demographics and their ability to push their ideas and conspiracy theories into the mainstream, the report said. The growth intensified at the end of 2012 with the election and the school massacre.
“As in the period before the Oklahoma City bombing, we now are seeing ominous threats from those who believe that the government is poised to take their guns,” wrote Richard Cohen, president of the Southern Poverty Law Center and a member of the Department of Homeland Security working group on violent extremism.
