They also feed into social media influencers...the new 'journalist'.
Today's headlines point to a future attempt to ramp up the use of influencers to campaign for the politician....if not just run themselves.....rather than risk exposure of gaffs from inept speakers.
Of course many current and past influencers were started by Operation Mockingbird seed money from the get-go. Starting in gaming or sports or other various topics, but eventually becoming political parrot for the mockingbirds.
Watch the 'leader' of the Mockingbird 'Brigade' Morning Mika, who lied about the Covid vaccine, chastised President Trump for suggesting people take Hydroxychloroquine and Ivermectin, her face and mannerism as her puppet Joey agrees with President Trump that the violent crime in Washington DC must stop. Divorce soon?
Mika's daddy was THE poobah of the East while Kissinger was the poobah of the West. She apparently has flaws that resulted in pimping her to a failed murdering politician turned fake journalist named Joe.
Have known and seen that for years. Glad we finally have leadership and a president who acknowledges it and has balls enough to hold the sick fucks who did this accountable. Love DJT and JD! Great time to be alive!!!!
I am in the UK and cut the cord nearly 14 years ago, I did miss the BBC but no longer. May their earholes turn to arseholes and shit all over their shoulders.
The land of Wordsworth, Dickens, and Coleridge brings an undeniable erudition to the poignancy of their insults that I for one find endlessly satisfying.
Really? This FACT has been obvious since 2020. The MSM IS the greatest enemy of The People in all of history and their Lies are 24/7. I watched the 2020 election results live and the MSM Changed millions of votes ON LIVE TV, from Trump to biden, It is called treason,
When I woke up after 2020 election night, Trump was ahead in michigan, by alot. We watched the votes come in the next day, and Trump's never moved. Bidens did immensely. I've been watching elections and results come since I was a teen (some 45 yrs) and have never seen election results come in like that. We know right then the election was rigged. Plus all the people calling in about antrim county up here. Remember that? Made national news. People that voted for Trump not seeing any votes come in for Trump. Can't wait to see all the sick fucks who did this hel accountable. God bless DJT and JD!!!
I remember trying to pin down a lib normie on this same topic. I was in a car with him (just the two of us), probably around 2022 or 2023, and we started talking about the 2020 election I said (something like)…. “Ok, we saw some really unusual activity in the last election, so wouldn’t it be fair to at least question the outcome of it? I mean, look at what happened in some states where vote trends, at a statistically impossible level, literally changed overnight?” And he started shaking his head, “….no, no….there were so many experts that looked into the 2020 election and came to the conclusion it was fair and secure, and that’s good enough for me to believe it.”.
It really drove home the point to me, that the normies want someone else to think for them. They are not going to think for themselves on issues made controversial by the mockingbird media.
“….no, no….there were so many experts that looked into the 2020 election and came to the conclusion it was fair and secure, and that’s good enough for me to believe it.”.
The whole reason for my username is direct opposition to this mindset.
Stop being a coward and be your own expert.
You’ll be unpaid, but them’s the breaks.
One time I ran into an athlete who was tutelaging under an all-time great in the sport. He opinion of him was just shy of contempt, “he puts his pants on one leg at a time, same as me.” The man was clearly lacking humility, which is also bad, but there’s a value in understanding that just because the other man may have been great, it doesn’t mean he actually understood why he was great, or that he was able to communicate it effectively, or instill the same mindsets, or remember everything he did, or that he’s aware of advances in the sport.

This is a pretty good (and LONG) article on Ben Franklin's observations and feelings about the Press. I went and searched for his thoughts to see if there were any thoughts that could foreshadow what the Press has become now - and if there were any warnings or visions of anything that could eventually become Operation Mockingbird.
Of course back then we didn't have anything like the CIA, but it is interesting to read Franklin's thoughts from way back then and see if things changed.
By the way - I asked Grok what the following quote means. I had ALL KINDS of crazy ideas floating in my mind...
[A]ny Man who can procure Pen, Ink, and Paper, with a Press, and a huge pair of Blacking Balls, may commissionate himself; and his court is immediately established in the plenary Possession and exercise of its rights.
Quite funny in current times. Here's what it meant then:
In this context, “Blacking Balls” refers to the tools of the printing trade, specifically the inked leather balls used in 18th-century printing presses to apply ink to type. These were typically made of leather stuffed with wool or horsehair and coated with a black ink mixture. Franklin uses the phrase “huge pair of Blacking Balls” to emphasize the ease with which anyone could set themselves up as a printer and wield significant influence through the press, often without accountability. The “huge pair” adds a layer of bawdy humor, typical of Franklin’s style, to underscore the audacity and power of self-appointed printers who could shape public opinion.
I asked Grok4 to summarize the article in 5 or fewer paragraphs. Here is what it said. (everything below is from Grok4 - I added nothing here).
The article discusses the ambivalence many Americans feel toward the free press, valuing its idealistic role in promoting truth and preventing tyranny while often experiencing its partisan and aggressive nature. It contrasts this with the founders' views, particularly Thomas Jefferson's emphasis on the press as a avenue for reason and accountability, quoting him as saying that freedom of the press is the most effective means to govern by truth. The press is also seen as vital for maintaining civilization by fostering common opinions among citizens, as observed by Alexis de Tocqueville, though historical and modern examples reveal its tendency toward invective and moral judgment, positioning it as a self-appointed arbiter over public figures and private citizens.
Unlike Jefferson's early idealism, Benjamin Franklin offered a more critical perspective, drawing from his extensive experience in journalism. In his 1790 essay "An Account of the Supremest Court of Judicature in Pennsylvania, viz., The Court of the Press," Franklin portrays the press as an unchecked power resembling a tyrannical court, capable of condemning individuals anonymously without evidence or legal recourse, akin to the Spanish Inquisition. He argues that this power subverts rational discourse and republican virtues by amplifying public resentment and flattery, quoting Juvenal to illustrate humanity's lust for scandal.
Franklin analyzes the press corps as an open, self-created class requiring little expertise, driven by motives of superiority and profit, which often leads to a cycle of mutual flattery and public deception. He warns that the press can deform democratic habits by exploiting resentments, potentially blinding citizens to mediocrity and fostering self-oppression.
To counterbalance the press's excesses, Franklin humorously suggests the "liberty of the cudgel" – allowing citizens to defend their reputation through direct means, though constrained by republican laws. He advocates for mechanisms like libel laws to preserve citizen pride and attachment to self-government.
The article concludes that the press, while essential, risks centralizing power and undermining republicanism if unchecked, echoing Tocqueville's concerns about a multitude of organs leading to uniformity and despotism. Franklin's insights remain relevant for addressing the gap between the press's ideals and its practice.
Although it certainly helped, I don't think this is the (primary) reason the media and institutions have gone so far left. The Long March played a much bigger factor.
The Long March works like this: You are a communist in an institution. Could be a news station, university, nonprofit, business, you name it. It starts subtly. You wait for an argument where you're sure your in the right. Early on in the communist takeover, the issue was race relations. You didn't just agree to disagree, you and fellow communists campaigned to have those who disagreed driven from the institution. At first, you kept these incidents rare.
Slowly, over years to decades, everyone who was anti-communist had left or been forced out. Then the talking points changed. It was global warming. Then gay marriage. Then mass immigration. Then queerness. Then child queerness. Each time, it changed from "we're not doing this, so get out, bigot!" to "it's a good thing, so get out, bigot!". The end result was the vast majority of positions of power were taken by Communists.
They'd rather see the institutions they took over collapse than stop being Communist. Just look at Jaguar, a luxury car brand that went trans and then lost the vast majority of its sales.
Even worse is that facebook gets a survey of political opinions of their users by getting their "likes" or "dislikes" and then the CIA crafts democrat political candidates to run their campaigns (disingenuously) on those very issues. Then, once elected, they just shill for the Blob.
And the sky is blue. That is not shocking information. This has been known for a long time to the people paying attention. Forget being woke, you need to pay attention to your world.
He needs to rephrase what he's saying. We know it's the mainstream media who are taking deep state Clown 4 a.m. talking points and using them to rig elections.
CIA Reports to Sec State. As long as Sec States a Dumbicrat CIA get their orders from the left.
And when the Sec State is a Conservative?
Then"The Resistance"(Deep State) heels doing the same thing. Our government has become like a ratchet or diode moving in one directiin ...
Power corrupts...
Even one of the disciples chose power over loyalty...
God some people on twitter are so dumb. Trying to refute this.. i dont think these verified accounts can be that dumb... twitter clearly still has paid opposition
The legacy media is done. They were already struggling. This next generations just doesn't have enough viewers. There are two many other options now. And I think the "new journalists" (social media, podcast) will be swiftly outed and have their reputations ruined if they participate in the propaganda.
I figured this out in the mid 90's during the Clinton administration. Other's figured it out just after the JFK assassination. Government propaganda has been going on since at least WW2, probably much earlier. This has been common knowledge for decades and decades. It's not even a conspiracy theory. It's a simple fact that everyone with any common sense knows. We don't need any more acknowledgement of these facts. If you haven't figured it out by now, you never will. What we want is someone to do something to make it stop.

It's Operation Mockingbird which has been active since the early 60's..
Main Stream Media has less influence as more people are turning off their propaganda.

Case in point here!
OK I like this one. The Internet says this is an Aussie saying. To me it sounds very Monty Pythonesque. Thanks for that.
Its a Royal Navy saying.
I love that Three's Company episode where there's some kind of misunderstanding. /kek

Wait, I thought that agency mentioned wasn’t supposed to operate domestically ?
FBI is an intelligence agency, operating domestically. CIA through Five Eyes contributed.
The original cross dresser.
"Central" is the first part of their name. If they wanted to deal with issues external to the U.S., they should have been the EIA :)

The only thing that can stop this is the Storm.
Of course. We've been working in it over 20 years. The black box for broadcasting is and has been a weapon. All TV's should be thrown out.
Starting the narrative for the normies of the 4 am talking points. Stand by for the mocking bird montages to go mainstream.
Even worse is that facebook gets a survey of political opinions of their users by getting their "likes" or "dislikes" and then the CIA crafts democrat political candidates to run their campaigns (disingenuously) on those very issues. Then, once elected, they just shill for the Blob.
I thought this was common knowledge amongst most Anons.

Shades of Piglosi’s explanation of the wrap up smear.
Does that mean the true source of their daily 4am talking points is CIA all along? I thought the I stands for International.
