What the media DID in Viet Nam was to serve ITS interests. It CREATED
news in many cases to spike ratings. If you think what you got from CBS was
the TRUTH, you are sadly deluded. More and more the PROPAGANDA of the media
is being unveiled in that war. They set out to attack the military and
FABRICATED plenty of stories. Not that the American government was innocent.
Wars are dirty business. The current one no less than others. World War 2
was no different than Viet Nam, really. The main difference was that most
reporters were "loyalists" and their beds were best feathered by supporting
the official story. Some reporters were right wing hawks. By the time of
Viet Nam, however, journalism was vastly different. The field of "gotchya
journalism" had evolved. So the PLAN from the start was to discredit the
military.
Let's go over one FACT. The American military was NEVER defeated in Viet
Nam. We never lost a single battle. The loss was POLITICAL. It was lost in
Congress, it was lost in the American media. It was lost to PROPAGANDA at
home. And we can LOSE AGAIN in this one. Only this time it will be FATAL for
America and the world. Hitler was just a bat boy in the league we see
today. And we'd better realize what we have riding on this war.
