CT Logic:
1. The mainstream media is controlled, and not credible
2. Except when it agrees with me
I think we all agree that the media sucks. But as Brainster already said, the majority of Jones' last 5 documentaries has been footage from the mainstream media. The same media broadcasts that he himself considers unreliable.
I think you either don't understand, or are willfully misrepresenting my position. While I do believe the media is controlled, in the sense of promoting a monolithic globalist agenda, I don't necessarily think it isn't credible. The problem lies with what facts, and perhaps most importantly what facts are
not reported, and how they are spun or otherwise framed. I'm not prepared to say that the media is outright lying or misrepresenting facts on a grand scale, because I don't believe they could get away with it, and I don't believe that's the case. It's about the stories they're selecting and not selecting, and how they're framed.
On what basis do you conclude the media "sucks"?
Unreliable, that is, until he has the chance to selectively edit the clips to agree with his point of view, and then re-release them months, if not years, after the fact.
So you're accusing Jones of compiling prescient news clips from the past, and ostensibly taking them out of context. I would agree, with the exception that most of this stuff you just
can't take out of context, it's that blatantly obvious. I've never heard Jones call the mainstream media "unreliable", he just deconstructs it and separates the facts from the spin and puts them in the context of freedom and liberty.
In my opinion, it would be akin to the CIA releasing a newspaper from 2006 today, with the majority of content redacted (blacked out). If the CIA did that, we would all laugh at this failed attempt at propaganda. And yet, when Jones does it, some applaud it. Usually the same folks who hate the CIA more than most. Go figure.
That's a baseless analogy. Jones isn't trying to pass off old news as current news, but rather establish patterns in history that lead to political awareness.
