Reuters using Yahoo to push US Government Propaganda
Yeah, you heard me. I honestly believe that those who control our "news" supply in the west give us ABSOLUTELY NO CREDIT FOR INTELLIGENCE. This is what greeted me when I went to yahoo today:
REUTERS/Department of Defense/Handout"
REUTERS DEPARTMENT OF DEFENCE HANDOUT?!?!?!?! What is wrong with you people?!?!?! This isn't news this is propaganda, how the fuck can you call yourselves providers of news?!?!?!?!?!
When Stalin took control of Russia through forced-socialist revolution, all news media bodies were seized by the government and turned into venues for government Propaganda. When Adolf Hitler came to power in Germany in the 1930s, all of the german media outlets were also one by one turned into propaganda providers for the Reich or were shut down. It is absolutely pathetic that western "news media" sources are no different today than German media sources were when Hitler took power, or the state run news agencies of Communist Russia.
I get more objective news from Xinhua (the Chinese government-run news outlet) than I get from yahoo and reuters. How sad is that.

Reuters doesn't support US, no way and don't worry. It's tagging that yahoo use now. Yahoo are the main culprits, but they have no news crews, so use all wire services. Beware AP, AFP, Getty Images, they are de facto US govt sites
Thanks for that. For more of my research into media ownership-based bias have a look at A little more about the American Media on my Misneach Stories blog.
I think it's only fair that I post Yahoo's response to my angry complaint about their Nazi-esque propaganda dissemination using defence handouts as news:

I would like to believe they would actually "keep [my] comments in mind" as they "improve" their services, but I doubt that they have the desire to set up any kind of propaganda (down with the IIP!!) filters for their news. As such, I'm forced to not use their news service in favor of my own international news sources.
