If I had my choice I would kill every reporter in the world, but I am sure we would be getting reports from Hell before breakfast.
I hate newspapermen. They come into camp and pick up their camp rumors and print them as facts. I regard them as spies, which, in truth, they are.

This has been debunked... Or has it? You want to see what a cesspool fact checkers and historians dwell in? Read the following link and see how they debunk this.
I got email from Jay Salter, one of my readers, who had come across the John Swinton vignette... He forwarded it to a journalist's discussion area, asking for feedback.
One journalist there, Jeff McMahon, made this response to Jay:
"Yeah, I'll take that bait. The last time I saw that phony quote Swinton was identified as the "chief of staff" of the New York SUN, the date was 1853, and where it now says "I am paid weekly," it then said "I am paid $150 a week." Which is, actually, about how much I made in journalism. Then some liar realized that newspapers don't have chiefs of staff, at least the editorial departments don't, and if you're going to lie you might as well do it big, so they made him the EDITOR IN CHIEF of the New York TIMES in NINETEEN 53. Unfortunately, the editor of the New York Times in 1953 was Turner Catledge.
So, the quote itself betrays a need for journalists because otherwise people who spread such propaganda might go unchecked.
Little has changed since then. I call such people "Presstitutes"... It's just a wonder that ANYONE takes the media seriously nowadays.
Wow...."The business of the journalists is to destroy the truth;..." Sure sounds like "fake news" to me.

It has always been thus.

Holyxi… now I may second guess what my history teacher taught us in school…

Research Howard Zinn, communist author of most of Americas US History textbooks.

A massive chunk of history, as it has been told to us, is a lie.
Egypt pyramids were tombs.
It’s obviously a lie but why?
Are all the lies connected?
