Ah what can I say - it was beautiful! The propaganda was the WORST/BEST I have ever viewed in an half hour segment. It may be repeated tonight. So where shall I start?

Nationalisation of all the banks. Obama and the language the journalist used: "Like most of us in the world we welcome Obama but those bloody Iranians don't cause they are all evil"* Then there was a stint about Rosa Parks and if only she knew that one day her refusing to stand up would lead to this amazing president being elected. On and on it spewed forth apon my screen. Cut to the second story. One solitary man who was white and Brittish died in Afghanistan. Tale about how wonderful he was. Then Gazza was mentioned at the end.

I urge anyone to view it and get the transcript for educational purposes alone.

*I'm paraphrasing so forgive the artistic license.

TBH i have stopped watching and listening to the MSM,i go to al Jazeera seem to be a lot fairer:)

TBH what they have done in Gaza is sickening to the gut:(

We watch it occasionally just to get a picture or a fix on what the mainstream is targeting, but it usually makes the butted bony thing on the end of my leg, lurch impulsively towards the screen after a few minutes

Does nationalisation of the banks mean in simple terms, that they're taking wealth out of mainstream society, which will create mass unemployment, which could bring us to our knees, which would force enough people to beg for help - control - Problem, Reaction, Solution.
