"I am paid weekly for keeping my honest opinions out of the paper I am connected with. Others of you are paid similar salaries for similar things, and any of you who would be so foolish as to write honest opinions would be out on the streets looking for another job. If I allowed my honest opinions to appear in one issue of my paper, before twenty-four hours my occupation would be gone. <p> "The business of the Journalist is to destroy truth; To lie outright; To pervert; To vilify; To fawn at the feet of mammon, and to sell his country and his race for his daily bread. You know it and I know it and what folly is this toasting an independent press? We are the tools and vassals for rich men behind the scenes. We are the jumping jacks, they pull the strings and we dance. Our talents, our possibilities and or lives are all the property of other men. We are intellectual prostitutes." <p> So here we are 47 years later and nothing has changed with the media, and that includes not only the newspapers, but our major magazines, and the radio and TV networks. This small group owns the banks, and controls our Congress and the Administration. They start and stop wars. <p> Hey, please don't tell 'em I'm ratting 'em out on this. I don't want to suddenly die of "natural causes." <p> <a href="http://www.waynegreen.com/">http://www.waynegreen.com/</a>

Nothing changed here in 40 or so years...but that doesn\'t mean it can\'t be changed.
