The Mainstream Media:

So what is news anyway?

It's new information of any kind.

How do they came up with the word: 'NEWS'?

It stands for: North East West South. I bet that most people didn't even knew that.

Strategies that Mainstream Media use to manipulate the people:

Biased story selection

All these media companies choose which news stories are getting covered. If a certain agenda is being pushed, one can expect stories that are supporting that agenda to be covered a lot by that media company. Off course the opposite is true too; if something happens in the world that isn't supporting the narrative, than there won't be coverage of that.

Biased story telling

This is when a story gets covered, but the media company is knowingly and willingly leaving out facts that show all the information about this occurrence or topic. Often the parts that are supporting a narrative are over highlighted.

Biased typecasting

This is when a media company shows 2 sides of the story, for instance to broadcast 2 different video interviews that are opposing eachother, but then it shows clearly which of the 2 is to be believed. Like interviewing a well spoken professor, that has had media training and is prepared for the interview, about one side of the view, versus a poorly dressed person that is not used to do an interview and gets the mic and camera put into the face on the street without expecting or preparing for it.

And off course then there is straigh up lying which a lot of Mainstream Media is doing too nowaday's.

Because more and more people are getting aware of all of these intelectual dishonest strategies done by the mainstream media, they tend to not listen to them anymore. Social and Alternative media are used and being watched more and more. There one get to choose which topic interests one and who to listen to.

At this point, it's fair to say that Mainstream Media isn't mainstream anymore. The Legacy Media is a better term to call them.

As this trend continues and I think it will, these Legacy Media Companies will be gone in the future. A win for the people! 😉
