The Myth of the Liberal Media: The Propaganda Model of News



Uploaded by: ChallengingMedia
Video Description:
http://www.mediaed.org
Edward Herman and Noam Chomsky demolish one of the central tenets of our political culture, the idea of the "liberal media." Instead, utilizing a systematic model based on massive empirical research, they reveal the manner in which the news media are so subordinated to corporate and conservative i
nterests that their function can only be described as that of "elite propaganda."

And here in America ... ( 1 day ago by Plutonwolf)
And here in America, groups with strong right wing leanings are purchasing radio stations that have a left of center message. Even if the station is profitable (they are) and the replacement is a loss, it is a done deal. A very popular channel in the metro Atlanta area was given this treatment and one right here in Pittsburgh, the birth place of Unionism in America has just received this treatment. They'll take a loss just to silence the other side. Nice.

What was the name of the station in Pittsburgh? I have a friend there. She says
there is no dissent there at all against the war and it has become very militaristic but most people don't realize it. She said there is like an unofficial curfew. The police just close in you after it get dark. Is that true. It's not like that where I live thankfully She's moving thank god.

It was 1360 WPTT, it's now WMNY, a financial advice channel. Yeah, right, don't even pretend anymore, rub our noses in it. Pittsburgh has really gone to shit since the early 80's. Elsie Hillman swore she would fix us if we didn't vote for Reagan and we didn't and it seems she did. The very rich are as bad as middle easteners at holding grudges. (islamic, jewish and christian)

The corporations have two political parties. The people have none. Until we have a real opposition party and stop the Israeli Lobbyists who are distorting US citizens view about Palestine/Israel and imperiling Palestinian, Israeli and American lives I refuse to Listen to radio or watch TV. Most "left of center" radio is just a front for the Corporate war mongering Democrats. God forbid you critisize Israel for their barbarism. Cynthia McKinney (please youtube her) is getting my vote.
I know this much. ... ( 1 day ago by FlavorRed)
I know this much. The mainstream media only pays attention to only 2 political parties 99.999% of the time. The only presidential candidates you see in the mainstream media are Barrack H. Obama and John S. McCain. They fail to mention that there are other presidential candidates running for the White House. Like Bob L. Barr for instance, the Libertarian candidate. Is that fair coverage just to pay attention to only two candidates and only two political parties all the time? I say it's bullshit!
P.S. I don't see ... ( 1 day ago by FlavorRed)
P.S. I don't see any real proof in this video that explains how the Liberal media is just a myth either. I'm not saying it isn't a myth. I'm just saying this video doesn't prove it. My opinion is that Msnbc is very Liberal bias and Fox news is very conservative bias. But like I said, the more obvious bias the mainstream media does have is that they only pay attention to two political parties 99.999% of the time.
The media almost ... ( 1 day ago by nowellian)
The media almost only covers the two right wing parties.
The media is capitalist propaganda, socialist are marginalized, driven back into the wood work(poverty), killed, or imprisoned! Liberal and conservative are just the right and left wing of the right wing of the political spectrum! Get it? USA has no functioning left wing! All socialist/communist
leaders who stick their heads up have them chopped off! Did you see leftists being beaten and arrested at the DNC and RNC? I did!

Is Oprah Biased? Won't Interview Palin
Republican VP Nominee Sarah Palin Isn't Welcome on 'Oprah' She may have let Tom Cruise jump all over her couch, but Oprah Winfrey says that Sarah Palin can't even sit on it. "At the beginning of the presidential campaign, when I decided that I was going to take my first public stance in support
of a candidate, I made the decision not to use my show as a platform for any of the candidates," Says Winfrey What a joke. She endorsed Obama 05/08

US Magazine Palin Attack Loses Subscribers
US Magazine is setting records for losing subscribers after the magazine published a Sarah Palin attack in its most recent issue. In 24 hours from the time the magazine was printed they have lost about 10,000 subscribers. Media bias exposed to the real mainstream. The mistake they made .... and th
is is a big one .... They don't know their readership. They assume everyone thinks like them. They bit the hand that feeds them. Real people Teehee

"When Us went to print Monday night, it looked like the ticket was falling apart," says one magazine editor. "They went to print thinking Palin was dead in the water, and their mistake was thinking everyone who reads Us is a Democrat, when they're not. Give me a break! Her speech was electrifying& was one of the most viewed political events in history. Palin hasn't just dominated the latest news cycle

Well really I'd have to say that the atheists are the stupidist. Okay they don't believe in a higher power...who really cares. Why waste their time combating something they don't believe in anyways. But the liberals run a close second...talk about sheep. They get caught up in conspiracies and follow any rock star who will feed them a slice of the warm and fuzsy, crazy pie.
What the heck do ... ( 2 hours ago by TheAgnosticAspie)
What the heck do Atheists have to with anything? I tend to think all hardcore religionists are the true sheep. Organized religion plays a convenient cover for absurdity, people follow a set of religious Dogma, can't think for yourself, and if you so much as qeustion anything your a heretic or a heathen, unable to be a freethinker.
The mind is like a parachute, open it up, you stay up in the air long enough to get a great view of everything. Keep it closed... you may as well hit rock bottom.

I was merely pointing out who I believe is the most stupid. Your attacks on relegion mean nothing to me. I dont care if people are religeous or not, but the atheists spend a lot of time attacking people who do. I really have no use for either, but accusations of sheep following religeous dogma is not unlike the atheists on the other side of the spectrum. They are just the ying to the yang. So theres a lot of sheep.

In addition: As far as politics go I would much rather vote for a moderate ticket within any party then one that represents extreme liberalism.

Killerbandit, Forgive you for not groveling...? Who asked you to? Do you think you deserve something for nothing? It sure sounds like it. There are people who start business with no one but themselves and no employees until they get on their feet and become more successful. They can then begin to employ others (who are grateful by the way). I know this for a fact. I am not coming back to this site.
