To date, every major commercial TV network has failed to report this story, covering up their complicity and keeping the existence of this scandal from their audiences. More than two weeks after the New York Times reported on the Penatgon's military analyst program to sell controversial policies such as the invasion of Iraq, the broadcast television news outlets implicated in the program are hoping to tough out the scandal by refusing to report it. Recently Media Matters of America (MMA) reported that, according to a search of the Nexis database, "the three major broadcast networks -- ABC, CBS, and NBC -- have still not mentioned the report at all." Congresswoman Rosa L. DeLauro and three dozen colleagues have sent a letter to the Department of Defense Inspector General calling for an investigation of this "propaganda campaign aimed at deliberately misleading the American public."

For a follow-up interview with the author, and find out the answer to the question, Q. "One question not pursued in the article, and which may be of continuing relevance, is whether or not it was/is legal for the military to mount a covert "psychological operations" effort whose explicit target is Americans on American soil."

Sahara, this has been happening since the days of Lincoln, who sent propagandists to every corner of the Union and Newsprinters to spread his agenda for the Civil War, Woodrow Wilson perfected this tactic with his goons of up to 50,000, who he sent out to coffee houses, restaurants, train stations to caterwaul and stir up support for his agenda, they even went so far as arresting journalists and punishing advertisers of those who were critical. Wilson continued these efforts to support his agenda of war-socialism through the sale of war bonds. Research Woodrow Wilson's American Protective League, or the "social benefits of war", that both W. Wilson and FDR subscribed to.
FDR used the frame...

Let me clarify, sahara. I do not believe you are seeking political pot-shots. I believe your concern is entirely objective and pointed toward the system, which is proved by your support of Ron Paul. I just wanted to point out the history and continual abuse of the Constitution.

Gee, Willie, your vast knowledge and obvious superiority continues to amaze me.
Thanks for the clip, Sahara and count yourself blessed that Willie approves. It's a rare thing, that.

Willie, your vast knowledge and obvious superiority continues to amaze me.
You are amazed by my vast knowledge and superiority?

Thanks for that fine contribution and once again proving, as do most other clippers, that the most important subject on a thread at clipmarks is your's truly. It really feeds my narcissistic personality disorder quite well.
