Hey Buddy, Can You Spare Me Some Truth

In 1963 there was 50 different owners of media outlets in the USA, every successive Republican Government allowed media to be bought, cannibalized and ultimately concentrated to the point by 1996 there was but 6 corporate giants who owned all North American TV Broadcast stations....

In the USA, in newsprint and on radio you are allowed to lie with impunity but Television broadcasting IS different, TV news broadcasters do not get the luxury to lie, the truth is supposed to be told on TV news....

I have a habit folks, if I'm out and about, out of town, on the island, in the Big Smoke there is one thing I love to do and that my friends is to listen to AM radio late at night, usually between 12:00 am and 3:00 am...Late night AM radio you pick up radio from places far away, radio from San Francisco, LA, Portland, San Jose, sometimes you can pick up radio stations from the strangest far off places, it`s called AM SKIP....It only happens at night, as soon as the morning approaches 5:00 am all the AM radio SKIP stations vanish, you can`t hear them during the day and if you were an average 9 to 5 person/worker you wouldn`t even know these radio stations exist, and believe me folks, American AM radio is exciting, KJO out of San Francisco is very good.....

Listening to American AM radio one gets a real good feel of what is really happening out there, the anger, hatred, racism, corporate theft, one gets to hear the whopper lies local American politicians are spewing, one also gets to see the ugly American in full bloom and occasionally one might get to hear what Americans think of us Canadians and our Canadian Governments.

So here it was Sunday night (Monday Morning) 12: 10 am in the morning and on the dial I came across a {Ring of Fire} pod cast radio broadcast from the eastern USA...


Robert Kennedy Junior was talking about media concentration, how the 6 remaining TV news broadcasters all use the same National news sources, like the AP(associated press), Reuters, and how American media no longer REPORT the news but manage the news, he talked about how the news is being spun and distorted, how the same story reported on Fox news gets completely spun out of context......The radio segment, the segment was about Wisconsin and the nutbar Scott Walker but Robert Kennedy was giving listeners tasty appetizers before they got to the crutch of the story...

Of course anything to do with corrupt media my ears start tingling and what Robert Kennedy Junior said next blew my mind.

Robert Kennedy said that Al Jazerra TV has never had a fine levied against them for lying or spewing false reports on their news casts,  Fox news has been fined $millions for lying on news broadcasts, corporate media told us for years that Al Jazerra was spreading lies and promoting terrorism when the truth of the matter it was Fox News that was doing the lying and promoting world terrorism! .....Isn`t that interesting, Fox news can lie their face off and if the shit hits the fan they merely pay a fine and carry on spinning and distorting, it`s only money and they have plenty...

And the show was just getting started and what was said next had my ears tingling like crazy....Robert Kennedy said....

Up in Canada they have what is called a fairness act, you are not allowed to lie on radio or TV news broadcasts, the legislation has been around for decades.....Harper is Canada`s premier, Canada`s version of a right wing corporate Republican stooge........

Kennedy went on to say


Stephen Harper`s Government brought in legislation to remove the Fairness act, the new legislation would give radio and TV news broadcasters the ability to lie with impunity on air, during newscasts, the legislation WAS so bad, if a news broadcaster lied, no matter what the lie, unless you can prove that the news anchor and or news station deliberately lied ...AND THE LIE WAS DEEMED TO HAVE CAUSED HARM TO THE PUBLIC there is nothing you can do and no where to even file a complaint, the bar was set so high no one would ever be able to stop deliberate lying on the news......Stephen Harper wanted this new legislation in place for when Fox News of the north comes to Canada.

Kennedy went on to say.......

Thank goodness Canada has some great internet investigators that were able to spread the word and STOP the new legislation from going through but the story goes right to the heart of how Right wing corporate Republicans and Conservatives will go to any means to stack the deck, there is no end to what tactics corporate Governments will employ to control the message, first they bring in the legislation then comes corporate money to spread the right wing imperial message and unfortunately, there is no big money pushing or reporting the truth, the money is on the far right, the money is corporate money, $billions of dollars being spent to attack unions and collective bargaining rights, $billions to attack health care and wages...........

So hear I was friends listening to this Ring of Fire pod cast in the witching hours and I was shocked, we reported this legislation, we reported the draconian changes Stephen Harper wanted to make to the Fairness act, the mainstream media said nothing, the legislation Harper was proposing was so bad that shock waves reverberated through Democratic institutions in America about what the Canadian Government was trying to do yet the mainstream media here in Canada failed to report it, it was no accident, it was an on purpose.

Where was I......Class Warfare....That is today`s battle, Scott Walker in Wisconsin will be removed one way or another, I suspect it will be the other, corporations have gone too far, far too far and the pendulum is going to swing or world war will erupt, yesterday was World Woman`s day....Thousands of Egyptian woman had a peaceful march demanding equal rights, they were met by a group of men who threw them to the ground, kicked the girls, spat on them and forced them to return from where they came.....

In Egypt 40% of the people are illiterate, they can`t read, decades of National Egyptian Government concentrated wealth and the masses have less and less, more poverty, no jobs, no hope....But things have changed, internet, satellites, social networks, information....In other words friends the real truth is coming out and it can`t be stopped and unless the right wing corporate machine can find a way to take over the airwaves, control radio, control TV, control newsprint, stop social media, unless these Bilderberg bastards can take back the message and stop the truth the game is over......

Michael Campbell, Michael Levy, Harper, Palin, Republicans, Fraser institute, even the Tea Party was infiltrated by Corporate power.....

These things, these corporate creatures are running scared folks, their message isn`t getting through and even if the right wing corporate message gets through no one is believing it anymore......

The Scott Walkers of the World, the Gordon Campbells, the Harpers, the corporations, they will not lay down, they will not play fair, the battle will be long and bloody, mothers and fathers will stand up and sacrifice for their children, the third world war is here friends, not Nation State against Nation state but the baker, the farmer, the student, the family, the future against the Corporation.....

(PS...The Harper Government has just been nailed!!!....Two rulings came down today...#1) Bev Oda should be charged with a crime...#2) Stephen Harper is lying to the public over what the true costs to the public will be over Harper`s proposed CORPORATE TAX CUTS and PRISON BUILDING AGENDA
