"Investigative journalism", are you serious? No matter which direction it is
coming from it is still corporate, commercial poop designed to move wealth in
someone else's direction. The way the American consumer (you and me) evaluate
it is based upon our own biases. If we agree it is investigative journalism. If
we disagree it is propaganda.

Subject: [blind-democracy] John Dean?
Since when did John Dean become a respected political consultant whose books
are worthy of promotion by Democracy Now? Does anyone remember who he is and
what his role was in the Nixon administration? His inclusion in this morning's
program is just another indication of how much Democracy Now has departed from
what it once was. Yesterday, I listened to the second part of a discussion on
Moderate Rebels. Among other things, there was discussion of the actual
credentials of some of the so called experts on foreign policy who have
appeared on Democracy Now over the past few years. So many of them represent
the Neo Cons or our national security state so that the information that they
provide is not factual information acquired through investigative journalism,
but propaganda which has been scattered through various sources and then
reported by the media as news acquired from a number of sources. Democracy Now
lives on while the Grayzone Project is attacked by everyone because the news it
reports is different from what the mainstream media report.
