U.S. ELECTION – High Lights and News Feeds
Font size:
U.S. Election 2012 will be an interesting media circus to watch. Already during the 2011 straw polls the mainstream corporate media managed to “forget” mentioning the second place winner, Ron Paul (and in some states even first place winner..), by only writing about 1′st and third place winners.
That type of coverage is possible only in countries where the media is exceedingly corrupt and is an amazing theatre to watch. Entertainment of the most exciting type. Unfortunately it seem like many voters still aren’t aware of how they’re getting deceived by forged news reports. For the moment the Internet alternative media still isn’t completely censored (let’s see how long that will last…)
Let’s hope for a big awakening during the crucial 2012 US election. Read this article about how Ron Paul was ignored by most corporate controlled news media outlets during the straw polls where he was a clear second.
