Original Post:
I asked, concisely and simply, what was being hidden from us. Most of them just berated me, one user claimed the Syria conflict to which I provided a link to a recent UN Statement on which quite accurately reflected the conflict start to finish. Another user claimed that the recently declassified Nixon era documents about the Chilean revolution and coup, but I was able to find a 1973 archived Newspaper accusing the Nixon Admin of having a hand in it from Times Magazine meaning it was already a mainstream theory at the time.
Not once ever?
Not enough to justify the claim that “Capitalist Media is hiding the truth from you”.
Well… I mean don’t a lot of voices and stories get LATRGELY silenced by the capitalist machine? I’m not saying that it DELIBERATELY stops any particular news, but rather that by design news basically needs to be profitable to survive in a capitalist society, and lots of news isn’t profitable.
What a great example, i’m sp glad you finally provided simple evidence of your claim. /s
You don’t agree with my characterization? You’re not interested in engaging intellectually with this conversation?
You’re just going to keep demanding that I find you a specific news story that “corporate media” didn’t run?
Do you think this is a logical line of reasoning?
For arguments sake and to give you something to work with, how about the catholic sex abuse scandals?
Sure EVENTUALLY corporate media picked up these stories, when it was profitable and the social/political fallout was minimised, but at the same time those stories were buried for years (probably decades) by corporate media looking out for their own interests
What story? You’ve wasted so much of both of our time with failed attempts at sophistry and hypotheticals and presented zero fucking stories.
I don’t understand what you are looking for here, I literally just told you that catholic sex abuse scandals were routinely buried by corporate media for decades.
If you are looking for a specific story, it doesn’t exist because they didn’t write it.
I can pull up catholic sex stories for you as old as the 14th century, mate. The West is not in the dark about Catholic Sex Stories.
I’m talking about the deliberate network of coverups knowingly moving accused priests to different jurisdictions to obscure this, which was eventually first outed in Boston in the early oughts.
The minute before that story was printed, and the preceding decades where journalists and other figures were aware of this but did not publish the stories out of fear of reprisal, is an example of the capitalist media censoring a story through process rather than by deliberate action.
