Mainstream media sells itself off to the government


 

The role of the mainstream media in America has turned into a mouthpiece of the U.S. government from that of a free press. According to Natural News, the three main news networks in U.S., viz. NBC, CBS and ABC are now dedicated towards preaching the government propaganda. The society in the U.S. is on the verge of collapse from every respect but the media is relentless in its effort to establish that everything is all right and U.S. citizens need not get worried about anything. Be it failing economy or unemployment, be it the dilapidating healthcare condition or some other issue, the media continuously lies to the general public.

 

The mainstream media has become the mouthpiece of the government and is always ready to propagate what the government says, thus keeping the general people covered in a veil of lies and half truths. It seems that the main aim of the media nowadays is to highlight the benevolent face of the U.S. government so that the real issues that are going to shape the future of America fade into the oblivion. They were quick to air that the President would cut his own salary by 5 percent in order to show a solidarity with the American people who faced a reduction in pay due to budget cuts, but they never said what this 5 percent meant to a person who earned millions every month as royalties of books apart from his presidential salary.

Natural News reports that the mainstream media in modern America has failed in upholding its true role of checking on the excesses, policies and abuses by the government. Instead, it has become a mere propagator of what the government thinks right, no matter what, even if it is against the well being of the common people.
