The Government's Violation of Freedom of the Press

I barely know how to respond to the recent NY Times article reporting that the "military experts" that serve as correspondents to news stations are actually in league with our government to promote the public's approval for the war.


What is even more disgusting is that the none if the major media outlets are reporting this scandal because they are implicated in the story. I first heard this story from "The Daily Show," an institution that obviously has no ties to the official media corporations.

In a time when so much controversy has occurred over the injustices perpetrated by the Chinese government, I find that the US regime is no different.

To influence the media's coverage of an issue is a violation of the freedom of press, especially when this influence is totally erroneous.
