The media has also played an integral role in exposing the corruption, brutal excesses, and lack of need for our wars. They are kind of schizophrenic like that.
(or maybe the media has many voices some do good things, some do bad things.)

When was the last time you saw an anti-war piece on cable or network news? They haven't been whistleblowers as far as war is concerned in a really long time.

Selling and starting are two vastly different things. The implication was clearly that they start wars, not that they are accomplices in selling them to the public. If you can’t see that then I don’t know what to tell you.

It's called "conditioning". Through various information dissemination techniques, you gradually condition the general public to want a specific war, spreading information to make war FEEL justified, so that the majority of citizens do not oppose it. It's pre-war propaganda.

I don’t like Trump, and he may me right for the wrong reasons, but the mainstream media is utter shite. They decided to put profits over principle and we ended up with Russiagate and Stormy Daniels instead of covering important issues.
