4 ways the media fooled you

It is frustrating that no celebrities, no big politicians, and none of the people on Jeffrey Epstein's flight logs will talk about what happened on his private island.

Not a single person, not a single celebrity, has come forward to say...

"Wow. That's horrible. I had no idea. How can I help the investigation?"

If you've ever wondered how we can all know that Epstein didn't kill himself, yet nobody will do anything about the obvious set-up that was his "suicide," his malfunctioning cameras, his sleeping guards...

You don't have to look any further than our media.

Every day, elements on all sides of the media - liberal, conservative, and everything in between - use TRICKS to fool you into seeing only what they want you to see.

That's how they fool us, and that's how they trick us into believing their excuses when bad things happen.

And THAT is why I want to talk about...

4 Ways To Spot Media Manipulation TacticsAs the old saying goes, "garbage in, garbage out."

If they can control the "news" that gets fed to you, they can control what you think about it.

Here are 3 ways ALL our major news media manipulate the people watching, listening, and reading them:

1. Lying with Headlines

This one is more subtle than you might think.

Our media know that you won't read past the headline, in a lot of cases.

So they'll create a headline that contradicts the actual article, and "bury" the truth in the article itself.

For example, the headline might say, "Steve Politician Denies Allegations He Conspired With Moldavia".

The actual article might explain that an investigation found no proof of the allegations... but the headline creates the appearance of guilt.

That way, the "news" creates the impression the manipulators want, but they don't say anything that isn't actually true, so they can't be sued.

2. Lying With Statistics And Footnotes

Here's another one that you see in political books a lot of the time.

The author will make a statement that might say, "Studies have proven that people in Political Party X are lunatics who eat puppies (4)".

That little number takes you to a footnote or an endnote that you just assume proves that the studies say this.

The author is counting on the fact that you'll never look up the reference.

And if you DO look up the reference, there's a good chance the study doesn't actually "prove" anything of the kind - but the author can claim this is his interpretation of the study, so it's not libel!

3. Just Plain Lying

Then there are those media outlets that just plain manufacture stuff.

For example, a few years back a major news outlet rigged a pickup truck to explode so they could "prove" the truck was unsafe.

The whole thing was a total hoax.

It wasn't misinterpreted... it wasn't just "distorted"... it was completely, totally made up.

Which means if the media can't lie to you by tricking you, they'll just lie right to your face, and hope they don't get caught.

4. Taking someone's word or words out of the claim or out of context.

 For example, some politician X says, “I do not like dogs which charge kids”. Next day we will see in the news: Politicion X has said that he does not like dogs”. We think: What a shame! Dogs are man's best friends”.

And what they're counting on is that the people pulling the strings, the people behind all this manipulation, will protect them from the fallout.

What all this means is that you can't trust a WORD of what you see in the media about what's going on.

So how can you know when you're being manipulated? I am afraid you will know in some years

 and how can you see "behind the curtain" to the people doing that manipulation? I am afraid you will never see it.
