In an extremely well written article, exposed once again are the corporate propaganda promulgating pompous pandering punks and pouty faced plandemmic pushers who are the face of the new and as Glenn has stated, a rapidly growing journalistic “beat” has arisen over the last several years that can best be described as an unholy mix of junior high hall-monitor tattling and Stasi-like (14th Amendment) citizen surveillance.
Within parentheses - my addition. You see, all over the world this monumental feat is the as so far the grand slam of all successes as far as agendas go. This monumental shift toward achieving the very old march toward the even older “New World Order”. I believe this is a huge test. I think our gullibility has been being seriously tested. I mean to say that by implementing the “policies” that many government offices have as well as many corporations of course the “ESSENTIAL ONES” chosen by some pencil pushing, middle class destroying enemies of the people. That is one description Donald J Trump, 45th President of the UNITED STATES INC. and master of giving a major erection to the Senate, was spot on about. Love him, or hate him.. or see it how I do, the entire office any president occupies of for and In representation of said corporate government, or governmental services corporation essentially subcontracted under what was the current martial law jurisdiction of the Reconstruction Acts (so called) following the conclusion of the War between the American Confederation the only lawful governing body convened according to international law defined as the US INC. by means of covert coup and overt offensive aggression A.K.A, the Federal Union or UNITED STATES then and currently according to mine, and many of my fellow colleagues research and investigation, is in substantive violation of the core principles it was founded upon, unless or until recognized as such, I can not, will not, unless I intend to violate the oath I took to support and defend the Constitution for the united States of America, can I recognize any office or act of it. As the majority of Americans have been indoctrinated into this extremely obvious oligarchical Communistic Communitarian criminal conspiracy and divided by as evil as evil can be two party divide and conquer system many of our founders warned us about including its extremely well known 10 plank agenda, abolition of private property, (YOU WILL OWN NOTHING AND BE HAPPY) implementation of a central bank, -(federal reserve) the abolition of the nuclear family, if people would dismiss the programmed response to call me a conspiracy theorist and just read our research and attempt to prove us wrong.... if they listened to us, we could still save the Republic for the American people. Implementing this agenda is the primary purpose of the main stream Zionist bought and paid for media.

The Ron Paul Institute for Peace and Prosperity : The Journalistic Tattletale and Censorship Industry Suffers Several Well-Deserved Blows

It is half adolescent and half malevolent. Its primary objectives are control, censorship, and the destruction of reputations for fun and power. Though its epicenter is the largest corporate media outlets, it is the very antithesis of journalism.
I’ve written before about one particularly toxic strain of this authoritarian “reporting.” Teams of journalists at three of the most influential corporate media outlets — CNN’s “media reporters” (Brian Stelter and Oliver Darcy), NBC’s “disinformation space unit” (Ben Collins and Brandy Zadrozny), and the tech reporters of The New York Times (Mike Isaac, Kevin Roose, Sheera Frenkel) — devote the bulk of their “journalism” to searching for online spaces where they believe speech and conduct rules are being violated, flagging them, and then pleading that punitive action be taken (banning, censorship, content regulation, after-school detention). These hall-monitor reporters are a major factor explaining why tech monopolies, which (for reasons of self-interest and ideology) never wanted the responsibility to censor, now do so with abandon and seemingly arbitrary blunt force: they are shamed by the world’s loudest media companies when they do not.
Just as the NSA is obsessed with ensuring there be no place on earth where humans can communicate free of their spying eyes and ears, these journalistic hall monitors cannot abide the idea that there can be any place on the internet where people are free to speak in ways they do not approve. Like some creepy informant for a state security apparatus, they spend their days trolling the depths of chat rooms and 4Chan bulletin boards and sub-Reddit threads and private communications apps to find anyone — influential or obscure — who is saying something they believe should be forbidden, and then use the corporate megaphones they did not build and could not have built but have been handed in order to silence and destroy anyone who dissents from the orthodoxies of their corporate managers or challenges their information hegemony.
Oliver Darcy has built his CNN career by sitting around with Brian Stelter petulantly pointing to people breaking the rules on social media and demanding tech executives make the rule-breakers disappear. The little crew of tattletale millennials assembled by NBC — who refer to their twerpy work with the self-glorifying title of “working in the disinformation space”: as intrepid and hazardous as exposing corruption by repressive regimes or reporting from war zones — spend their dreary days scrolling through 4Chan boards to expose the offensive memes and bad words used by transgressive adolescents; they then pat themselves on the back for confronting dangerous power centers, even when it is nothing more trivial and bullying than doxxing the identities of powerless, obscure citizens.
But the worst of this triumvirate is the NYT’s tech reporters, due to influence and reach if no other reason. When Silicon Valley monopolies, publicly pressured by Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) and other lawmakers, united to remove Parler from the internet, the Times’ tech team quickly donned their hall-monitor goggles and Stasi notebooks to warn that the Bad People had migrated to Signal and Telegram. This week they asked: “Are Private Messaging Apps the Next Misinformation Hot Spot?” One reporter “confess[ed] that I am worried about Telegram. Other than private messaging, people love to use Telegram for group chats — up to 200,000 people can meet inside a Telegram chat room. That seems problematic.”
These examples of journalism being abused to demand censorship of spaces they cannot control are too numerous to comprehensively chronicle. And they are not confined to those three outlets. That far more robust censorship is urgently needed is now a virtual consensus in mainstream corporate journalism: it’s an animating cause for them.
