Abstract TV manipulation and brainwash backdrop with people and shadows

Typically, the role of the mainstream media (MSM) and its news has always been to condition, brainwash, misinform, and mislead the masses into fear, submission, and slavery. The media is a mind-control machine used by big pharmaceutical companies, politicians, and other rich companies that control politics to spread malicious false information and fake news in whatever ways they desire in order to cater their interests.

Not only these financial giants try to control what comes out of the television, newspaper and radio, they also use their tentacles to control the information in the social media and in the internet in general. For example, today when you post something in Facebook about coronavirus that “goes against the community standards”, meaning against the official narrative, you will be policed by their so-called “fact checkers”. But in reality, Facebook fact checker is doing the opposite – they are allowing fake information (mostly coming from the MSM) and blocking the truth and censoring honest scientists, doctors, experts and even ordinary people who are educated from expressing opinions and facts. The same censorship is being applied in Google and Youtube.  

Talking about this, the author Gary Bentley wrote in trofire.com:

“When you tune in to MSNBC, Fox News, or any of the other corporate media machines, you’re probably not going to hear much about the methods in which big pharma is taking advantage of consumers either through price gouging or medical mishaps. The reason for this is because talking about those stories creates a major conflict of interest for the people behind the scenes.”

And just because they have the technology and the power of money to put themselves above the law, big pharma can do almost everything they want without fear of being held accountable. They huge billions of dollars to make sure no one can stand on their way. On the same report, Mike Papantonio, “the senior partner with the law firm of Levin Papantonio who has received numerous multi-million dollar verdicts on behalf of victims of corporate malfeasance”:

“Drug companies spend about $5 billion a year on advertising with these corporate media outlets, so when Pfizer or Merck or Eli Lilly, or any of the drug companies, kill or cripple Americans with defective drugs, do you really think these board members are going to allow their story to be told on the air? It can take anywhere from three days to a full week before the media reports on a drug or a medical device recall, if they report at all.

Drugs are cash cow advertising bonanza for corporate media. Fortunately an increase in number of Americans who are starting to wake up and realize that the MSM shouldn’t be trusted on issues like this. In recent years we’ve seen the alternative media experience rapid growth and MSM has been losing credibility at a staggering rate. Americans are starting to look elsewhere for the truth about what’s really going on out there. As a result of that advertising money kicking around the corporate media isn’t permitted to report complex drug stories anymore. It’s as if they don’t understand things like the link between crony capitalism and the revolving door between the FDA and the drug industry, but the media is only one side of the story here. Big pharma knows that if it wants to continue manipulating the public it has to start with our elected officials in Washington DC. According to OpenSecrets, big pharma spent more than $58 million on politicians just in 2016, the most amount they’ve spend on a direct contribution in the last quarter century.”

Meanwhile, in an article entitled “Selling Junk Science”, anh-usa.org reported about how the media are “parroting press releases”: 

“In the age of instantaneous news, media outlets are eager to be the first to “get the scoop” on the latest, hottest study. In doing so, they usually simply regurgitate the study’s press release (which says what the drug company, or the researcher allied with a drug company, wants them to say) instead of spending time on independent analysis and research. As newspaper and other media lose advertising to the Internet and other places, they depend heavily on drug companies (in 2012, the pharmaceutical industry spent $90 million on print advertising). Publishing articles that protect Big Pharma’s interests may be rewarded with more profits.”

In addition, Kalee Brown also wrote in “Collective Evolution” about how the media smears legitimate facts about naturopathy and natural medicines:

“The belief system that alternative medicine and naturopathic medicine are somehow inferior to conventional medicine is continuously perpetuated by MSM and Big Pharma. News stories regarding studies on alternative medicine or all-natural treatment methods are barely ever covered by MSM. There have literally been thousands of studies on alternative medicine such as cannabis, essential oils, and other naturopathic remedies. If an MSM news report ever takes a condescending tone toward naturopathy, keep in mind that this could be propaganda, which could even be funded by drug companies.”

There is also a strong connection between the marketing agenda of big pharma and MSM to the population control agenda in general. For example, in an article entitled “Big Pharma & The Mainstream Media – Promoters of Illegal “Gun-free” Zones and the Globalist Agenda”, James Jaeger wrote in oathkeepers.org:

“The MSM and Big Pharma are abettors of the Globalist Agenda. The Globalist Agenda — as exemplified by the Counsel on Foreign Relations (CFR) mission — is to compromise, then remove national boundaries from all countries in order to facilitate global trade under a new system of laws and regulations, such as GATT, NAFTA and the TPP. In order to do this, the Agenda calls for the mitigation of national sovereignties and the re-organization of countries under the jurisdiction of global organizations, such as the UN, the World Trade Org, the World Bank and the World Court.

Further, in order to accomplish this, the right to “keep and bear arms” must be terminated in all nations, especially the U.S. The Globalists understand that act of a population being armed is the only thing that gives that population leverage against their tyranny and the runaway police powers of the state. The right to keep and bear as part of a well-regulated militia is the ultimate check and balance. Thus, the MSM never discusses the 4th and 5th reasons for gun ownership, such full complement of reasons being: 1. Target shooting, 2. Hunting, 3. Self-defense, 4. A deterrent against tyranny, 5. Duty to be armed and trained for state militia service.”

So it is clear that the MSM is helping the big pharma in keeping the masses in the dark: ignorant of the facts, afraid, and paranoid of what they don’t understand in terms of biology and health, especially in these times of fake pandemic and fake news-driven pandemonium. However, no matter what lies and disempowering propaganda they put out, always remember the truth that you can take control of your own health.
