The Fox Effect: How Roger Ailes Turned a Network into a Propaganda Machine - YouTube

Quote:
It is their M.O. to undermine the administration and to undermine Democrats.
They’re a propaganda outfit but they call themselves news.
—a former Fox employee

“Fox News has created a generation of woefully (and objectively) misinformed ideological sycophants to pursue its radical agenda. It's no accident. Now David Brock and Ari Rabin-Havt show that no matter how unethical and dishonest you think Fox News is, the reality is that they're much, much worse.”
—Markos Moulitsas, publisher, Daily Kos

It's common knowledge that Fox is a propaganda machine, but this reveals how it has become what it is...a massive noise machine that creates and proliferates lies.

Ok, so if Roger Ailes is so good at turning Fox into a "propaganda machine".....and MSNBC responds with a liberal version of that "propaganda machine"..... what does that say about Liberals and liberalism? Liberals envy propganda so much that you decided put forth your own. What's the problem? Alls fair in love and war, right?

If you look it up, there is a picture of MSNBC to illustrate the definitive definition of a 'propaganda machine'.

Time magazine and the NY Times are also on the payroll.

So even if FOX is determined to spew propaganda they are but one mainstream source held against the predominance of a herd of opposing propaganda machines.

Of course when propaganda machine is mentioned one automatically thinks of Pravada. So sad 'son of pravda' has now been embraced by the Obama socialists as a primary tool to get favorable election results.
MSNBC is that epitome of the Communist party's propaganda machine, Pravda.
