Who owns the media in the U.S.?

Thursday, July 10th, 2008

octomedia!

There are thousands of channels of radio, television, magazines and periodicals that are published/broadcast in the U.S. Did you ever wonder who owns it all and where it all comes from?

Well you don’t have to dig too deep to find some answers. It all boils down to 6 companies that dictate almost everything you see, read and hear. 6 companies! The “big six” are Time warner, CBS, Viacom, General Electric (huh?) and News Corp.

Here is a more detailed list of what the big 6 own and control. Its this stranglehold over media outlets that are keeping the american people “in the dark” about the nefarious happenings occuring within our governmental institutions.

I’m not saying stop watching TV or listening to radio, I enjoy music, movies and TV just like the next guy– just be aware of the “unified voice” coming from most mainstream corporately owned outlets. If you just dust away the top layer of soil, you can begin to see the truth behind matters.

Think for yourself. Don’t let any network or magazine tell you how to think. Find whats “cool” for you, not what the latest fashion magazine tells you is “cool”. There are millions of people in this country, we should have millions of styles and perspectives… not 6.

Scare tactics is Baaack!

Tuesday, July 8th, 2008

One of my all time favorite shows Scare Tactics is coming back on the Sci Fi channel on July 9th. This time around its hosted by Tracy Morgan (of Saturday Night Live fame). In this Litigious society we live in, its a wonder this show managed to stay on the air for more than 2 episodes. The victims on this show get blasted with pranks that would give most people heart attacks on the spot. I can’t wait!

Watch this clip from an older season and bask in the sadism.
