October 10, 2012 in Event, Featured When: Oct. 20th, 2pm-4pm Where: Civic Center Park Facebook Event Page In medieval times the court jester was the only person allowed to say whatever he wanted. He could call out the ruling class on their lies and propaganda without fear of being executed, because he did it with humor. He had the power to affect change by planting a seed in the minds of the court. While we would all agree that the more serious marches and actions are always important we can often bring more public attention to an issue with humor and by being just a little bit silly. In doing something ridiculous and unexpected we may capture the curiosity of the folks around us, and thus they will drop their guard for a while to actually listen to what we have to say. So in the spirit of the old time court jester, join us for the Zombie March Against Corporate Media. The news is controlled by a small number of corporations such as NBC Universal, News Corporation (FOX), CBS Corporation, Viacom, The Walt Disney Corporation, and Time Warner. These corporate media outlets often censor, alter and spin information regarding the most important issues facing us these days, thus cutting us off from the truth and often even making us afraid of our neighbors by weaving racism and bigotry in between the lines, and then distracting us with adorable puppies. Corporations then bombard us with advertisements in an effort to convince us that we should care only about buying more junk we don’t need. A study in 2009 showed that the average hour long T.V. show was 36% commercials! You can hardly watch a TV show or movie without suffering through the blatant product placement. These have been the tools of the rich and greedy to control the masses by turning us into apathetic zombies who live to buy the goods and believe the lies. The Zombie March Against Corporate Media is a fun way to call the attention to these issues of many who may not normally notice. It will be family friendly, sidewalk only and with a low risk of arrest as a group of lumbering zombies with funny signs deftly follow the Monopoly Man carrying a giant television. We will meet up at Civic Center Park on Saturday October 20th at 2pm for zombifying and sign making (Make-up will be available. Keep in mind, fake blood can stain clothes so wear something you don’t mind ruining, and be creative!), then march from 3 to 4pm, dispersing into the Denver Zombie Crawl at Skyline Park. Don’t let the %1 steel our BRRAAAAIIIIINS!!!

Yes, the left wing media must be killed. http://www.weeklystandard.com/Content/Public/Articles/000/000/004/143lkblo.asp THE ARGUMENT over whether the national press is dominated by liberals is over. Since 1962, there have been 11 surveys of the media that sought the political views of hundreds of journalists. In 1971, they were 53 percent liberal, 17 percent conservative. In a 1976 survey of the Washington press corps, it was 59 percent liberal, 18 percent conservative. A 1985 poll of 3,200 reporters found them to be self-identified as 55 percent liberal, 17 percent conservative. In 1996, another survey of Washington journalists pegged the breakdown as 61 percent liberal, 9 percent conservative. Now, the new study by the Pew Research Center for the People and the Press found the national media to be 34 percent liberal and 7 percent conservative. Over 40-plus years, the only thing that's changed in the media's politics is that many national journalists have now cleverly decided to call themselves moderates. But their actual views haven't changed, the Pew survey showed. Their political beliefs are close to those of self-identified liberals and nowhere near those of conservatives. And the proportion of liberals to conservatives in the press, either 3-to-1 or 4-to-1, has stayed the same. That liberals are dominant is now beyond dispute. Does this affect coverage? Is there really liberal bias? The answers are, of course, yes and yes. It couldn't be any other way.
