How do you find the truth? En mass we listen to cable television or network news expecting to get the truth simplified,concise and delivered without delay. But take a moment to imagine the threads that lead from your ears backwards to the corporate owners of the television and radio programs. In order to sell thirty second spots for advertising commercials you must prove that you have a desirable and captive audience. What is essential is to have programming that locks the viewer down and stops the channel from being changed. Proven statistics dictate that the viewer will linger because of sex, violence, fear and sensationalism. Pieces of truth are woven with urgency and skewed opinion with the intent to capture the viewer until their minds memorize every ad. When your dollar speaks and you buy the advertised product, the same programming continues. Speak with your dollar and only buy products that support honest programming. Use more Internet news sites, try PBS, read newspapers and buy books written by experts and people who were actually there when news happened. Often the interpretation of reporters and the spin of corporations results in bits of headline sensationalism and little hard news. Seek the truth and you will find it.
