White Noise tagged along Greg Palast and Robert F. Kennedy Jr. & Mike Papantonio's GO LEFT TV's first incarnation against 8 years of W's violent abuse of this nation with over a dozen activist video clips.

Gore Vidal, Ralph Nader, Jeremy Scahill, Tony Benn, Allan Nairn, Keith Olbermann & Greg Palast have all received the White Noise treatment to general acclaim or utter revulsion, depending on political inclination or awareness of facts which we all know by now are sooo bias ;)

As a whole, the clips paint a pretty bleak picture of the US of A. An alternate reality to big media's cheer leading. Just keep on shopping as mantra just ain't enough. As a humanist, war & empire building comes out as a racket paid for with the blood & suffering of mostly women & children the world over. A far cry from the image US citizens entertain of themselves. Howard Zinn's & A People History of American Empire or John Perkins's Confessions of an Economic Hit Man narratives does not bode well with the ambient propaganda that passes for information in this country. The deliberate dumbing down of America carries an awful price tag; mainly the loss of our Republic !

Now don't get me wrong here, there is still, against all odds, great investigative reporting going on. Seymour Hersh, comes to mind. Check here for more : http://centerforinvestigativer eporting.org/

Problem is; most of that work is diligently kept from the public's eye, as plainly demonstrated here : www.projectcensored.org

Just follow the money ! It has become so bad that we can now accurately predict what stories will not see the light of day while we are inundated with showbiz galore & people willingly hurting themselves on You Tube for a shot at their 15 minutes of cyber-stardom. www.projectcensored.org/top-st ories/category/y-2009/

The pabulum narrative we are being fed has become reality and commentators & pundits regurgitate it as gospel.

The smart way to keep people passive and obedient is to strictly limit the spectrum of acceptable opinion, but allow very lively debate within that spectrum. - Noam Chomsky

A cynical, mercenary, demagogic press will produce in time a people as base as itself, - Joseph Pulitzer

Never the less...

Since there is a new sheriff in town,
White Noise shifts gear...

OK, I'LL BITE... YOU WANT CHANGE ?

DON'T JUDGE POLITICIANS ON WHAT THEY SAY BUT ON WHAT THEY DO !

We are watching a poorly staged rendition of Wag the Dog , interpreted for the morbidly stupid and performed by the criminally insane. - Jules Carlysle

Two rationalizations that keeps White Noise tagging along

We can easily forgive a child who is afraid of the dark; the real tragedy of life is when men are afraid of the light. - Plato

People who shut their eyes to reality simply invite their own destruction, and anyone who insists on remaining in a state of innocence long after that innocence is dead turns himself into a monster. - James Baldwin
