The US Aristocracy’s Smear-Russia Campaign: Big Brother At Work

Authored by Eric Zuesse via The Strategic Culture Foundation,
Billionaires, both liberal and conservative ones, own, and their corporations advertise in and their ‘charities’ donate to, America’s mainstream (and also many ‘alternative news’) media.
They do this not so as to profit directly from the national ‘news’media (a money-losing business, in itself), but so as to control the ‘news’ that the voting public (right and left) are exposed to and thus will accept as being ‘mainstream’ and will reject all else as being ‘fringe’ or even ‘fake news’, even if what’s actually fake is, in fact, the billionaires’ own mainstream ‘news’, such as their ‘news’media had most famously ‘reported’ about ‘Saddam’s WMD’ (but the’news’media never changed after that scandal – even after having pumped uncritically that blatant lie to the public).
