Background
- For years, the censorship of factual information that is inconvenient to certain powerful actors, including the US Federal Government and Big Pharma, has been steadily increasing as "information warfare" has become an ever present force in our lives
- Facts are rarely treated as sacred by the world's largest and most influential media outlets
- In this environment, too many media personalities have become mercenaries for hire and, as a consequence, public trust in the media is cratering
- Meanwhile, those who do aim to champion truth in their work are targeted, smeared and censored by tech companies and platforms aligned with "mercenary media", unaccountable intelligence services, and out of control oligarchs
Journalism in Crisis: The War on Dissent
- Journalism is becoming less of a profession and more of a war zone
- The most powerful media outlets deliberately manipulate or omit facts to craft narratives that expressly benefit the powerful while also colluding to censor their more truthful competition
- In many cases these media mercenaries actively work to suppress the facts and malign those in journalism who do strive to champion the truth above all else
- Many so-called journalists today act more as accessories to the crimes committed by the powerful against the public
