Dead Constitution See other Dead Constitution Articles Title: Everything Western Media Report About Russia Is a Big Fat Lie Everything Western Media Report About Russia Is a Big Fat Lie by Stephen Lendman Vital truths are systematically suppressed. Willful disinformation, distortions and bald-faced lies substitute - why Western media are called presstitutes, making street whores look good by comparison. More on this below. Longstanding regime change plans lie at the root of US anti-Russian policy - not how the country is governed, its geopolitical agenda or who leads it. Previous articles explained. Washington wants pro-Western stooge governance replacing Russias sovereign independence, its vast land mass balkanized for easier control, its resources looted, its people exploited like serfs - a pure evil Hitlerian agenda wrapped in the American flag. Outlandish anti-Russian propaganda rages - way exceeding hostile Cold War rhetoric. Virtually all major Western publications and electronic media are in lockstep - reporting vicious Big Lies instead of hard truths. Nonexistent Russian aggression is the common denominator along with calling Putin an existential threat - perhaps to US hegemonic aims, nothing else. Vladimir Putin Hides the Truth, claimed New York Times editors - about war in Ukraine Washington and its Kiev proxies bear full responsibility for waging. They continue blaming Moscow for downing MH17 despite clear evidence proving one of more Ukrainian warplanes were responsible. Dont back down on sanctions, they blustered - ignoring their illegality and harm to EU countries imposing them, yielding to US pressure against their own best interests and common sense. Who Threatens America Most, they asked? They quoted incoming Joint Chiefs chairman General fighting Joe Dunford calling Russia the top existential threat Washington faces. In testimony before congressional committees, other US officials say the same thing - despite no evidence suggesting it, plenty indicating otherwise. Times editors continue promoting the Big Fat Lie about Russian aggression - claiming hordes of its forces invaded Ukraine, yet no one spotted them because none exist. Last May, Bloomberg outrageously claimed Russia uses mobile crematoriums to hide its nonexistent war dead. The source: NATO and US officials. In March, former US Assistant Defense Secretary/current Deputy NATO Secretary-General (de facto boss) Alexander Vershbow lied saying Russian leaders are less and less able to conceal the fact that Russian soldiers are fighting - and dying - in large numbers in eastern Ukraine. The Russians are trying to hide their casualties by taking mobile crematoriums with them. They are trying to hide not only from the world but from the Russian people their involvement. Fact: No Russian aggression exists nor does any evidence suggest its planned. Vershbow flat-out lied claiming otherwise. Fact: Putin, Sergey Lavrov and other Russian officials are consummate peacemakers. Fact: US-led NATO and Israel support endless wars of aggression. They represent the worlds greatest existential threat - risking mass annihilation advancing their imperial agendas. The Economist is a London-based propaganda mouthpiece for wealth and power interests - operating since the mid-19th century. In the last year alone, it published numerous Russia-bashing articles - claiming nonexistent Russian aggression, provocative Western confrontation, and posing a greater threat than during the 1962 missile crisis. Canadas largest circulation national newspaper (its New York Times equivalent), the Globe and Mail, published a late July right-wing Prime Minister Stephen Harper op-ed headlined Our duty is to stand in the face of Russian aggression, saying: There can be no weakening of our resolve to punish the Putin regime for threatening the peace and security of eastern and central Europe. Harpers government partners with Americas imperial wars. Canadian warplanes bombed Libya in 2011. Theyre currently attacking Syrian targets on the pretext of fighting ISIS. Canadian like American media scoundrels lie for power - substituting propaganda for what people need to know. Obama boasts about bombing seven countries since taking office. I have not shied away from using force when necessary, he blustered. Including against Afghanistan, Iraq, Libya, Pakistan, Syria, Somalia and Yemen, as well as partnering in Israeli wars - plus covert destabilizing operations in Venezuela, Ecuador, Iran and numerous other countries worldwide, naked aggression and lawless interference in the internal affairs of other countries. Russia and China represent Americas final frontier. Its master plan calls for asserting dominance over both nations - the only challengers to its hegemonic aims, risking nuclear war to achieve them. Instead of condemning the madness of possible mass annihilation, media scoundrels march in lockstep with recklessness threatening everyone. Stephen Lendman lives in Chicago.

The owners of the USA government and of the media are the same. Don't blame the reporter. They are going to write what they are told or they will be fired. If they write the truth, what they write will not be published and they will be punished or fired. I don't trust any news that the media publishes with the following exception: I believe the sports pages, the weather reports, the society pages, and the obituaries.
Oh but I do blame the scribblers and news readers. They are arrogantly judging, slandering, libeling and abusing us themselves, whether on order from above or not -- and are conceited as hell about it!
Than blame human nature because that is universal. It is a waste of effort to expect humans to act contrary to their nature.
It's the media-government complex, brother. They're ONE continuum, the two genres freely overlapping.

I don't know what those words mean. But if you are saying the government and the media are the same, I agree. Or more like I believe that whoever (probably the international bankers that own the federal reserve) owns and/or is in control of the government also owns and/or controls the media.
