Mainstream Media Finally Concedes Defeat on Yemen, Ends Blackout Of Coverage

(After the 2016 US election, journalist Michael Tracey wrote an essay documenting how throughout the entire year and a half that Americans were pummeled with updates from the mass media about candidates and their campaigns, not one single question about Yemen was ever asked by any mainstream outlet of any candidate.)

Maybe this is the reason Jill Stein was a rare occasion to be found on any, ANY, main stream media source. And when she was it was a very, VERY, short amount of time. Because she never hesitated to bring up Yemen, Syria, or any of the middle east quagmires. Or mention the 900+ military bases we have round the globe, ummm, I mean, Empire. While the story is about Yemen, Syria offered us very little discussion either. It was one of the issues I often found myself screaming at the con artist Sanders for not bringing up during the debates. He should have hammered that into our homes like bombs being dropped on houses around us. Right up there with Libya!

(If you ask some of the Trump supporters I’ve seen responding to the shift, it’s because their president can now be unfairly blamed for a military campaign which began long before he took office. But that doesn’t really hold water, does it? I mean, the aforementioned year in which MSNBC didn’t cover Yemen took place entirely during this administration, and every American with cable TV knows that MSNBC markets itself as the anti-Trump network. If they’d wanted to use Yemen as another angle from which to criticize this administration they would have done so, instead of not doing so at all. The entirety of mainstream media have been grossly neglecting this issue up until the last week despite having every opportunity to condemn Trump for it.)

When you're provided solid evidence that both parties are in collaboration, and the main stream media is compliant to the establishment politicians. Next witness. I'm done with this one.

(But again, from what I’m seeing right now I don’t believe that this is about Trump. Not directly anyway. From what I can see right now, I think what we are witnessing is a clear instance in which alternative media successfully caused the establishment to lose control of the narrative on an important issue.)

Break the chains! Drop your main stream media source and turn to independent new sources.

(This, and the fact that the control of a key strategic region is at stake, is why we’ve been seeing the Saudi war crimes in Yemen and the US facilitation thereof downplayed for years by the mass media. And they would surely remain downplayed indefinitely were it possible.

But it wasn’t possible. The story kept getting pushed toward mainstream consciousness year after year, and eventually the fact that an outlet which upholds itself as the flag bearer of Trump’s opposition has been completely ignoring this administration’s facilitation of war crimes was made viral. At a certain point a Dem-voting audience which is being told day in and day out that Trump presents a unique and unprecedented level of danger to the world will lose trust in the outlets which market themselves to that demographic if they refuse to make a big deal about the fact that this administration is helping tyrants murder busloads of children.)

Say hello to the new boss. Same as the old boss. Same as the last 5 bosses.
