The Problem Is Much Bigger Than Brian Williams: Corporate News Is Not Trustworthy

The endless news analysis about the fate of Brian Williams is symptomatic of a larger phenomenon: The so-called television journalists and pundits in this country often eclipse the news that they are supposed to cover. Even more importantly, Williams' "misremembering" itself points to a greater problem: It threatens to expose the facade of corporate television, breaking down the notion that corporate TV truly informs us about real news priorities.

What concerns Comcast (which owns NBC) and the other corporate networks - including, of course, cable TV - is that if the public starts to view Williams as "untrustworthy," that development may topple the delusion that television news is unbiased. NBC - or any network - needs its high-profile anchors to appear untainted in order to deliver the largest possible audience to corporate advertisers.

There is a pivotal and memorable scene in the film "Good Night, and Good Luck," about famed journalist Edward R. Murrow, who after a storied career of speaking truth to power is essentially demoted by CBS Chairman William Paley. Before Paley's action (which occurred more than 50 years ago), Murrow is depicted as one of the last television journalists who saw ferreting out the truth as the touchstone of his profession. Why was he humiliated? Because Paley explained to him that it was a new era – an era when news divisions needed to start making money and be guided by overall corporate television financial considerations.

In short, http://www.truth-out.org/buzzflash/commentary/us-has-become-a-nation-where-tv-news-celebrities-are-more-important-than-the-news

In those fifty years the corporate news networks have shrunk from around fifty to just six conglomerated networks.

These six conglomerated corporate networks held a monopoly on the information you and I were allowed to see and hear. Until the internet came along and with it the "alternative media" which would more accurately be called the "authentic media" now that it has shown how fraudulent the corporate media really is. The six conglomerated networks are crumbling along with their efforts to use the same old mind control tricks they've always relied on to benefit their corporate masters.

 

As if that is something to brag about... :laugh:

 

Yea....but what difference does that make!?!

 

Big "JESSE "
