Google, your data suppression methods are obvious, easily recorded, abysmally inept and generally pathetic.
The simple fact that you actively engage in suppressing this and other alternative news sites means we have won and TRUTH will prevail in the end.

 The Propaganda Multiplier Effect
SPR via sal, Saturday, Dec 21 2019, 6:50pm
It is one of the most important aspects of our media system, and yet hardly known to the public: most of the international news coverage in Western media is provided by only three global news agencies based in New York, London and Paris.
The key role played by these agencies means Western media often report on the same topics, even using the same wording. In addition, governments, military and intelligence services use these global news agencies as multipliers to spread their messages around the world. (story and 1 image)

REAL NEWS -- World's Richest Country’s Empty Plates
Larry Romanoff via stella, Thursday, Dec 19 2019, 7:01pm
Trump's impeachment is NOT news that matters, the real story is YOUR rapidly declining quality of life which has plummeted to levels never seen before and I include the great depression, which only persisted for a decade. In contrast today average Americans have seen their quality of life and real incomes go through the proverbial floor to below subsistence levels over the past three decades. So would you now remain media nose-ringed and fixed on the fate of a puppet president that has only served the interests of mega-rich oligarchs and plutocrats that have ensured that puppet Trump remained in office for four years serving their interests, which interests include maintaining public focus on totally irrelevant sensational issues so attention is never on the thieves and proven criminals (Iraq war) in high office and other places of financial power.

Can Filthy Rich Elites Sink Democracy in Britain and the U.S.? -- Sure Can!
Juan Cole via jess, Saturday, Dec 14 2019, 7:48pm
The constant attacks on freedom, liberty and independent thinking (independent choice) by our elite owned information systems plus new levels of wealth concentration has resulted in the complete subversion of democracy. The degree of wealth inequality both in the US and the UK is now virtually unprecedented, as is media concentration/consolidation. That is, fewer and much wealthier people own more news and other information systems today than ever before, and they use it against the public interest and to advance THEIR agendas/interests.

History of the Federal Reserve -- Eliminating the Gold Standard
Ellen Brown via kate, Friday, Dec 13 2019, 6:12pm
Former Federal Reserve Chairman Alan Greenspan called Paul Volcker “the most effective chairman in the history of the Federal Reserve.” But while Volcker, who passed away Dec. 8 at age 92, probably did have the greatest historical impact of any Fed chairman, his legacy is, at best, controversial.

Disconnected Pentecostal dribbler Oz PM Morrison Forced to Speak on Bushfire Emergency
reg, Wednesday, Dec 11 2019, 9:19pm
FINALLY speaking to the media, insular PM Morrison says he “understands” bushfire emergency! Well, you dipstick runner from your primary responsibility to the nation and its people, over five million Sydneysiders, after weeks of inhaling toxic smoke and dangerous 2.5 particles, which have long term deleterious effects on health, also 'understand' the bushfire emergency but still NOT a WORD on policies for future mitigation, reduction and prevention from a clearly USELESS PM that CLEARLY AVOIDED the issue by attempting to shift focus to international criticism of his ABYSMAL performance in this crisis, after all it's all about him, NOT the nation and suffering population affected for weeks by poisonous air pollution.

Cultural Reproduction and Freedom
claire, Tuesday, Dec 10 2019, 11:26pm
It is self-defeating to write reformative and/or subversive revolutionary material about any existing culture. All the great philosophical, religious and political treatises that we imagine were/are new are merely reproductions of culture as process. WHY/how? Simply due to the fact that culture resides internally as 'mind' – distinct from consciousness – and externally as a social phenomena, though both productions are inextricably bound in an extremely tight symbiotic relationship by LANGUAGE.

Senile, Demented and Incontinent: NATO at 70
Martin Sieff via reg, Sunday, Dec 8 2019, 9:49pm
“Old Age,” the great French President Charles De Gaulle famously said, “is a shipwreck.” We should certainly feel that way about the 70th birthday celebrations of the North Atlantic Treaty Organization – the most venerable security alliance and organization in the world.
The London Summit made it clear to the whole world: NATO at 70 has become a global joke. (story and 1 image)

It Doesn't Hit Until it Hits YOU!
jaxie, Sunday, Dec 1 2019, 11:27pm
Sydney's five million insouciant, insular population has recently been woken to the real effects of climate change and increased bushfires, while it chokes on yet another toxic cloud of smoke but this time from the south, as the only direction no fires burn is the eastern seaboard – smoke from the north, south and west empty into the Sydney city basin and it affects everyone including pets; the beautiful harbour city is now one of the most polluted in the world, well done Oz State and Federal governments that have had decades to prepare for the effects of climate change and increased bush fires with controlled back burning policies and provisions/regulations for the elimination of accumulated fuel. And for those that imagine such controlled back burning kills flora and fauna, well wake to the fact that it kills far less than out of control bush fires that literally rage and travel scorched earth across the land.

Spreading 'Democracy' the American Way
Larry Romanoff via jess, Saturday, Nov 30 2019, 8:32pm
The list is BLANK. But how can that be? We all know that the US has freed dozens of nations from their evil and repressive governments, and installed loving democracies where people lived happily ever after, swamped with freedoms and overwhelmed with human rights. We know this because we’ve read and heard it hundreds, or maybe thousands, of times. It’s in all the US history books. We’ve seen it in so many movies and even read it in comic books when we were kids. It must be true. So why is the list empty? How can that be? (story and 1 image)

Impeachment, Impeachment and the 'News' of Distraction
stella, Wednesday, Nov 27 2019, 7:46pm
Donald Trump as president has received more news coverage during his term as president than all previous presidents put together – now that is something worthy of note as we all know that the concentrated mass media is owned and controlled by elite (CFR members) plutocrats that ensure a particular TAILORED coverage that is in their and other elite interests – have you not noted that the mass, and to a large extend alternative media, is led by an obvious scripted narrative – they CLEARLY sing in chorus and unison a reality never seen previously when the mass media was independent and diverse?

Nobody Can Stop the 'Music'
netta, Sunday, Nov 24 2019, 9:43pm
Excuse the lyric quote from a once popular Village People song, but it is appropriate, the 'music' in this instance is TRUTH and its dissemination, which today's mass media has failed miserably to broadcast -- it now specialises in distraction, misinformation, omissions, out right LIES and PROPAGANDA, as should be obvious to ALL – anyone that views, listens, reads or believes anything from mainstream media outlets, including digital tech social media outlets, is being managed by a clearly sinister group that maintains its power behind the scenes by controlling the dominant (fictional) cultural narrative, and these forces are now attempting to CENSOR alternative, independent news outlets that continue to publish accurate information.

Putin Exposes US Protection Racket
staff report via jess, Saturday, Nov 23 2019, 9:06pm
The USA is currently engaged in extorting protection money from its allies in NATO, South Korea, Japan and elsewhere. The gangster line is very simple, 'we are protecting you so you must pay for that protection!' Indeed, protecting us from WHAT? China and Russia have no military expansionist ambitions plain to see today, however, one nation stands out as a mass murdering, violent expansionist nation, guess? Yes, the USA, simply check its heinous murdering track record over the past few decades to confirm. So the question begs, which nation does the world need to protect itself from? Yes, rogue, gangster State, America.
