Vermin:
>>There is no greater power in the world today than that wielded by the manipulators of public
opinion in America. No king or pope of old, no conquering general or high priest ever disposed of
a power even remotely approaching that of the few dozen men who control America's mass news
and entertainment media.<<
ONLY IF PEOPLE ARE PARROTS LIKE YOU AND REFUSE TO THINK.
>>For example, the way in which the news is covered: which items are emphasized and which are
played down, the reporter's choice of words, tone of voice, and facial expressions; the wording of
headlines; the choice of illustrations -- all of these things subliminally and yet profoundly affect the
way in which we interpret what we see or hear. <<
IF YOU DEAL IN REALITY, YOU CAN EASILY SEE THROUGH THESE PUPPETMEN.
>>The average American, of whose daily life TV-watching takes such an unhealthy portion,
distinguishes between these fictional situations and reality only with difficulty, if at all. He responds
to the televised actions, statements, and attitudes of TV actors much as he does to his own peers
in real life. For all too many Americans the real world has been replaced by the false reality of the
TV environment, and it is to this false reality that his urge to conform responds. Thus, when a TV
scriptwriter expresses approval of some ideas and actions through the TV characters for whom he
is writing, and disapproval of others, he exerts a powerful pressure on millions of viewers toward
conformity with his own views. <<
THESE ARE THE FALSE "ROBOT AMERICANS" -- THE FOOLS WHO BELIEVE IN A DRAFT, MY COUNTRY RIGHT OR WRONG, THE MANY LOST ONES WHO HAVE BOUGHT INTO GROUP RIGHTS, NEED AS A VIRTUE, AND BUY INTO THE COLLECTIVIST CREDO THAT YOU ESPOUSE TOO.
