Proceeds to show international news wires and international sources to show neutrality, thus steel manning the outrageous meme.

Edit: Find a NY Times or Washington Post next time to invalidate the meme.

You asked me to show a NYT article, I did- and now you don’t like it.

My god this is so embarrassing for you.

One of them was really good. The Wash. Post article was great too. Thanks for taking the time.

ROFL! Not a single unbiased source among them. But it’s a good insight into where you get your programming from.

I may disagree with some of Chomsky’s views, but Manufacturing Consent should be read in every high school in America.

I think Chomsky & Parenti are intentionally kept out of the new, post-Trump media literacy curricula, because it would make people too literate. Just consider who was involved in crafting it.

This week, the RAND Corporation released a new set of media literacy standards designed to support schools in this task.

No one is going to give you the education you need to overthrow them. Nobody is going to teach you your true history, teach you your true heroes, if they know that that knowledge will help set you free.
