How the military analyst program controlled news coverage: in the Pentagon's own words

"We develop a core group from within our media analyst list of those that we can count on to carry our water. They become the key go to guys for the networks and it begins to weed out the less reliably friendly analysts by the networks themselves."

Glenn Greenwald

@ mona

oh, well, for sure I shall keep going. I immunised myself in advance when I was younger by going through a complete, no holds barred process of destitution, modelled on that described by George Orwell in "Down and Out in Paris and London." I even stayed in the same hostel for the homeless that he stayed in, in Tooley Street, near Waterloo railway station, where everyone is a practicing alcoholic. But I would hate to lose my Internet connection, since it is my only link to humanity.
