MoD White Paper on Manipulating the Media

The CNN Effect?
In the case of the first scenario the issue is whether the Western media, most obviously
that of the United States, can be manipulated in order to bring about a military
deployment; and if so, how this can be done. In other words, is there such a thing as ‘The
CNN Effect’? The modern prototype for such cases came in 1990 when the Kuwaiti
government, its country under Iraqi occupation, spent US$10.8 million chiefly through
the Washington public relations firm Hill & Knowlton, on a propaganda campaign aimed
at elite and general American public opinion. This included the notorious televised
testimony to the Congressional Caucus on Human Rights on 10 October 1990 by a
Kuwaiti girl that Iraqi soldiers had thrown babies out of their incubators. The story,
briefly taken up by Amnesty International and repeated by President George Bush, was a
fabrication, and the girl was the daughter of the Kuwaiti ambassador. Before this could be
publicly revealed, a special audio-visual presentation on Iraqi atrocities was given to the
UN Security Council, just two days before Resolution 678 authorising the Gulf War was
passed.

Are you posting this as supposed "evidence" of TV fakery and missiles?

It is beyond question that the MSM often act as a propaganda arm of government. But I fail to see how this adds any weight to your NPT/TV fakery crusade on here.

I assume this is the document you referred to in the other thread when you suggested rudely and deludedly that I hadn't done my homework. Absolutely laughable.

[Fred]

I'm posting it because it's of interest to the intelligent readers of this forum. If you cannot understand how it pertains to you, then you needn't ask about it further.

Keep on digging, Fred. You are doing a great job of discrediting yourself (not sure how much credit you had).

What is that saying about give someone enough rope and they'll hang themselves...

[Micpsi]

Fred creates a thread with material that is irrelevant to the narrow issue of NPT/TV fakery. But of course he knew that because the purpose of his thread was just to keep stirring the detritus of his long-discredited claim about the CNN footage so as to make us think that he still does not feel he lost the debate. We know better. Thread busted, Fred. The hole you dig keeps getting bigger with each new, bogus thread.

In the above footage how does one explain the bridge floating off to the left while the towers stay central?

Interesting link there Fred.

Here's the main page of papers on the Military and the Media from Phil Taylor at Leeds Uni.

Yep, a rigerous critical method is absolutely essential

I havnt seen anything yet that stands up as evidence of TV fakery, but I'm open to the possibility that its simply becuase the TVfakery is way too good. So lets assume the TV fakery is right: as soon as one easily debunkable peice of evidence slips under the radar: game over.

Its getting to the point that even if TV Fakery is true (which is, I repeat, not my current opinion) its become next to useless as a tool for exposing the truth

Would this be a fair and simple statement of position on the 9/11 videographic bone of contention ?

The large Boeing Camp could now be correctly termed TV Huggers ?

Comments please.
