Future of Freedom Foundation
by Sheldon Richman

01/28/13

Hollywood s Imperial propaganda

CounterPunch
by Joe Giambrone

02/20/13

Hollywood likes to pretend that things aren?t political when they are. It s that bi-partisan nationalist myth that if both corporate parties agree to cheer for the empire, then everyone cheers for the empire. It s gotten so bad now that races like the Oscars and the Writer s Guild screenwriting award are tight contests between one CIA propaganda film and another CIA propaganda film. The first one helps to demonize Iranians and set up the next World War scenario, while the second film fraudulently promotes the effectiveness of state-sanctioned torture crimes...

The Real Invasion of Africa is Not News and a Licence to Lie is Hollywood s Gift

By John Pilger

It is as if Africa s proud history of liberation, from Patrice Lumumba to Nelson Mandela, is consigned to oblivion by a new master s black colonial elite whose ''historic mission'', warned Frantz Fanon half a century ago, is the promotion of ''a capitalism rampant though camouflaged''.

The Ominous U.S. Presence in Northwest Africa

Treasury approved ''excessive'' pay for executives at bailed-out AIG, GM and Ally

Washington Post
