FCC Fighting To Identify Corporate And Government Propoganda On News

In a statement, FCC commissioner Jonathan Adelstein, said: "The public has a legal right to know who seeks to persuade them so they can make up their own minds about the credibility of the information presented. Shoddy practices make it difficult for viewers to tell the difference between news and propaganda." http://www.democracynow.org/article.pl?sid=06/08/16/148215

    Geez, 32 grand. I'm betting Rupert Murdoch carries that much in his wallet when he goes out for lunch each day.

    The FCC better shut down all news organizations then, all they are is a party mouthpiece. To bad they can't shut down the CBC and other "arts," funding. I still remember the stupid twat who got public funding to hang dead rabbits from a tree in Manitoba.<br />

    Do people actually buy into this crap? The FCC actually protecting people's interests - ha! Keeping people brain dead is what Big Brother Media does best. The FCC only exists to rubber stamp the process and collect paychecks. What a joke!
