Over the last 10 years, American’s have been forced fed political propaganda channels posing as “news” and the big losers have been the American people. The dumbing down of the American public has NOT served the country well. It has created a generation of uncompetitive foolish peoples that are now falling behind and unable to cope with 21 century challenges. With programming from profit infotainment political propaganda channels e.g. Fox News which criminally misrepresent and use the phrase “News” in their title when, in fact, are just a arms of the political party with an agenda, Americans are doomed to remain in the dark when it comes to cold hard facts around the globe.
What now? Is the US really losing the information war? And is public funding the solution?
