From 911 Truth News... that title being an oxymoron if I ever heard one! http://911truthnews.com/10th-anniversary-911-truth-hit-piece-roundup/ A "hit piece" in truther-speak being of course any media article or radio/tv presentation that doesn't acknowledge that 9/11 could have been an inside...

The most recent edition of the BBC's popular consumer affairs programme Watchdog included a feature about fraudulent psychics. It isn't often that British TV does this so I suppose we should be grateful, but unfortunately presenter Julia Bradbury ruined the show by stating that some psychics...

Dateline: USofA: As the Thanksgiving holiday officially gets underway the day before Turkeyday, airlines are reporting few if any glitches and TSA lines at the largest airports are reporting waits of fewer than 20 minutes. Meanwhile, those traveling over the river and through the woods via...

I would like to stimulate some discussion of radio and television broadcast licenses. As you may know there are now pretty much unprecedented concentrations of the available broadcast licenses into a very few corporate entities. Entities what's more that have come to regard these licenses as...

Since I'm studying the US media's view about the world, I always have the impression that it's far beyond a neutral view about the world and themselves concerning politics and foreign policies. Now I could be wrong and prejudiced - so I'm asking you Americans: Is the US Media's view...

Conventional wisdom has it that exposure to violence on TV and in video games is directly linked to violent behavior in the real world. It seems a lot of people just take this as a given, but I've been skeptical from the beginning. (I have a habit of being skeptical) This claim seems to come...

How about a bunch of conspiracy quotes? I came across several recently, and I think, many CTers know the following only too well And the following could very well be Lyte and Avery

I came across this example of classic CT "investigation" whilst doing some other research. It's an old (2005) piece of speculation on the Jean Charles De Menezes police shooting, and picks up on what the author claims to be discrepancies, yet offers no real evidence. Despite clearly lacking the...

A frind of mine sent me this URL: http://www.fark.com/2007/book/chapter1.shtml There was something interesting mentioned in the article about how the media presents news, particularly in the live reporting of a news event (such as 9/11) Here's a excerpt form the web article posted abouve...

David Shayler, former MI5 agent turned conspiraloon, was on Steven Nolan's show on national Radio 5 this evening (listen here for a stream from tomorrow morning for the rest of the week) spouting every lie in Loose Change - no planes, thermite, controlled demolition, PNAC and the rest...

Looks like we're going to have the hard left trying to ram Pravda down our throats if they can get away with it. Seems like the free speech kind of bugs them, unless it's THEIR free speech. I'm always puzzled about these kooks. Are they Nazis or Commies? Either way, seems like they have...

Is it me or is the media reporting outbreaks of norovirus with an unnecessary shrillness? Sure, I'd like to avoid infection. However, by the time the news breaks the infection is over, the place disinfected and people are no longer on the trots. What purpose does national news coverage serve...

I've seen this story by nbc cited a few times before actually reading it and getting that not so fresh feeling about some of these 'findings' it speaks of. I looked up HeartMath and it seems like a step or two away from something you'd see advertising on TV at 3 am...

Since we don´t have any specific thread about Conspiracy Theories in the mass-media, i added this one to keep us all updated about the progress and new speculations about CT´s. Maybe this could be worth to be a "sticky one". __________________________________________________________________...

I am having trouble finding that radio broadcast where the 2 DJ's clown on the LC'ers Also where are the videos of gravy taking them on?

I know you'll all let me know if this has been posted here before, but I couldn't find it searching the forums, so I'm going to put it up. This video , apparently from a Dutch TV station, shows two politicians - including one of Tony Blair's MPs - pretty much coming out and stating that the...

Why are CTers convinced that these two secretly believe there is a giant conspiracy, but can't go public for fear of their own careers. What is the fasciniation with these two... It's like, they feel a kindred spirit to these two men, both of whom detest them and their methods, and, for the...

Why do CTists nowadays view every bit of news as if it is a conspiracy? Last week I saw the following post on LC, regarding the Amish school shooting: source: http://s15.invisionfree.com/Loose_Change_Forum/index.php?showtopic=15929 WTF?? Is it true that spending to much time infront of a...

not really related to 9/11, but when you see just how much it takes to take out a building it just shows how crazy the CD claims about 9/11 really are?

A Colorado sports radio host named Dino Costa changed his usual format to host a debate about 9/11 last week. I think that it may be instructive for myth-debunkers to listen to it to see how "our" "side" can do better in debates. There is a link here with two MP3's at the top...

Back when HC's feedback addy was posted here I sent off a note regarding thier intent to broadcast "Loose Change". They got back to me today: I wonder how many astronomers and astrophysicists they consulted before determining the account of the Apollo Landings was not "truly accurate"? There...

Did you know that 25 Iraq students departed for the United States in January 2005 for the reestablished Fulbright program? Did you know that the Iraqi Navy is operational?! They have 5 - 100-foot patrol craft, 34 smaller vessels and a naval infantry regiment. Did you know that Iraq's Air...

On my brother's PC, when he tries to play .avi files in windows media player (probably other files as well, but I haven't tested), it shows "connecting..." and locks up the computer. If I close it through task manager (which loads very slowly), it doesn't solve the problem unless I end the...

This radio interview with one of the Popular Mechanics shills is priceless. http://www.apfn.net/pogo/A003I060823-am-c3.MP3 He says that we know who the hijackers were on 9/11 because DNA testing was done. The caller wanted to know how DNA samples were gathered from rubble of moltel metal and...

Actually it was yesterday's paper, but it was literally on the front page of the National Post yesterday: One in five believes in conspiracy Apparently a phone survey had as much as 26% of Canadians aged 18-34 saying they believe the US attacked its own buildings. Ugh.

The second hour of Talk of the Nation will interview Jim Meigs, (editor-in-chief of Popular Mechanics) and Bob Goldberg (professor of history at the University of Utah; author of Enemies Within: The Culture of Conspiracy in Modern America.) Sirius satellite radio listeners can hear a repeat...

Interview with the artist Ernie Colon about his graphic adapation of the 9/11 Commission Report. http://www.npr.org/templates/story/story.php?storyId=5690970 http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/0809057387/sr=8-6/qid=1156442572/ref=pd_bbs_6/002-7046418-0035260?ie=UTF8

Uncensored magazine from New Zealand (also on sale in Australia) has reprinted some of Killtown's 200+ smoking guns. Although it is somewhat of a backhanded compliment; many smoking guns are not reprinted as they are 'repetitious'. Uncensored magazine is a cheap but colourful magazine with a...

Just as an FYI - I ran across this, which is on tonight: On Native Soil Premieres Monday, August 21 at 10pm E/P Encores Sunday, August 27 at 2pm & Sunday, September 10 at 12pm http://www.courttv.com/onair/shows/on_native_soil/ "Narrated by Academy Award® winners Kevin Costner and Hilary...
