[quote name='drone8888']I only watch internet recaps, which go deeper and link sources. All the major newspapers, television, and radio; all the way down to your local stuff, are owned by 3 corporations. When they accidentally break a story, they remove their transcripts and never show it again.
Did you know that Baxter pharma was found to have ordered Bird Flu strains (not airborne) to be mixed with regular flu vaccines. Not to vaccinate against, but to mutate and kill.
Or, that Bayer aspirin was caught by the FDA trying to peddle HIV contaminated meds to the US... and when the FDA stopped them... Bayer sold the meds to Europe and infected who knows how many people? Got ripped down from the Scarborough Country's website almost immediately.
Or that we're globalizing, starting with the banks who own the entire world's assets as it is?
That marshal law is imminent?
The economy is definitely going to collapse, according to top economists, legislative and congressional members, and financial gurus?
Yah, I stopped gaming. There is so much that people believe based on the garbage news presented and packaged to them, that they instantly dismiss posts like mine, and turn thier head the other way.
Seriously, the internet can find official documents, Freedom of Information Act releases, bills in line to be passed, etc.
While having the paper in hand is always more satisfying, at least to me,... I have never felt more informed, perhaps even for the first time ever, since I began doing my own research online.
I suggest Prisonplanet.com,... or Alex Jones on Youtube for starters. Then do your own research from there.
It's going to be really scary, very soon. While I'm glad to be in the military,... I'm dreading the order to point a gun at an American for them defending thier home and family.

Although you make a good point, that the Internet is full of official documents and such, I think most people, like me, find it too much work to monitor goverment and NGOs for news all the time and read to all the bills and etc, and would much rather have someone else "prepare" so too speak, the news for them.
However, one should be very careful with the editorial direction that their news source follow... as we all know from forum Troll Fighting, one simple piece of information can be understood in so many different ways that it could turn into several pieces of news, all of which may be in fact incorrect.
That's why I follow news just like reviews: I pay attention to the person writting instead of the organization as a whole, using it more as a guideline to what should I expect.
I hope I was clear enough to make myself understood. Anyway, nice comments on the thread.
