One of the leaders of the dangerous Manosphere Game Cult who goes under the name of The Rational Male, published an article yesterday critical of medical advances extending female fertility. Now while we here firmly oppose Feminist so-called reproductive rights (i.e. abortion); as pro-family advocates we can only welcome scientific advances that will bring new life into the world.
Not so the Red Pills, however. The Rational Male takes umbrage with a new technology involving ovarian implants that would, in theory, cure female infertility---even if that infertility were caused by disease. He gives us "the real reason" behind the publicity over the new discovery:
"Ah yes! The Holy Grail of bioengineered gender equalism---a safe and effective means of extending a woman's fertility well beyond what all reason and concern for healthy parenting would otherwise mandate. Nowhere is it mentioned, or are we even to consider, that women's real reason for wanting a safe way to extend their fertility has less to do with 'infertility' concerns and a lot more to do with their difficulties in optimizing Hypergamy."
So there we have it. These medical advances have nothing whatsoever to do with making motherhood a possibility for many women who desire it. Instead---according to the Game Cult---these advances are calculated to increase female probabilities of mating with an 'Alpha' male. Lest the reader think otherwise, The Rational Male confesses:
"In the Manosphere there's an understanding that women's Party Years, the years she rides the C--k Carousel are dedicated to the pursuit of Alpha F---s; her prime directive is focused on short-term breeding strategy. Women's entitlement extends to the point now that they demand that science extend this period..."
One might presume that, given the Game Cult's emphasis on male sexual promiscuity and that they all fancy themselves sexually desirable Alphas, they would consider this a positive development (assuming that their theories were true). But to put this seeming paradox in context, one has to understand that---to their way of thinking--- female hypergamy is an unmitigated evil that leads women to commit all manner of crimes against men. As the author further states:
"It is important to consider how women's feral selves are effected by an instantaneous attention and affirmation that previous generations of women craved, but never dreamed of having this kind of facility with."
Now we come to the crux of the matter. Stripped of all the pseudoscience and neologisms we understand what Game Cult sexual theories are actually premised upon: fear of feminine sexual power. This explains largely why the Red Pills favor sexual liberation and advocate controlling sexuality at the same time.
When we speak here of feminine sexual power, we mean the natural attractive female quality that entices a male to win and conquer her. The Gamers fear this: their entire concept of the Alpha is premised on control; either through force or manipulation, female sexuality. As we have noted elsewhere, there are no such things as hypergamy or the feminine imperative, and the Evolutionary Psychology upon which both theories are based is bogus. What such theories are designed to do is to dupe men into believing (i.e. taking the Red Pill) that healthy sexual bonding with a female is biologically impossible.
These false theories are rooted in their fears; of which their Alpha Archetype is a projection. The Alpha is supposedly above emotional bonding and knows how to bend women to his will. The chumps,---those men who haven't taken the Red Pill---are vulnerable and subject to losing their female conquests at any time. The Game paradigm, which allows nothing for love, is strictly based upon fear. The fear of the Alpha being sexually rejected, and the fear of the female under an Alpha's control.
Despite the Gamers' pseudo-Christian veneers, we see there is nothing holy about this type of relationship. And it also explains their paradoxical position on extending female fertility. A woman's capacity to reproduce is a major factor in her sexual power. Extending that power is something that the Alphas cannot tolerate. Fear also largely accounts for their intolerance of mixed-race relationships.
The New Testament tells us that "There is no fear in love." The motive force behind all cults is fear, and the Game Cult is no different in this respect. It is no more a movement to empower men; any more than Feminism is about empowering women or so-called 'Gay Rights' is about a right to love. All of these movements empower no one but their leaders and rely upon intimidation, deception, and force to achieve that power.
Contrary to what the Red Pills say, women have an instinctual fear of infertility. That medical science can reduce or eliminate that threat is a positive gain for civilization. Unfortunately, though, The Rational Male concludes by telling us that his article is the first in a series on this subject. But thankfully, science doesn't pay much attention to him.
"I, the Night Wind know many things, because I walk by night. Many strange tales of those who have stepped into the shadows...and of those things which they dare not speak."

HUNGARY STANDS UP TO ANTI-CHRISTIAN BIGOTS
The Hungarian government this week announced the creation of a new federal agency which will be tasked with fighting anti-Christian bigotry and combatting international Christian persecution. The new office will be a division of the Hungarian Ministry for Human Rights. Hungary has become the first world government to establish formally such an office.
Hungarian President Victor Orban and Human Rights Minister Zoltan Balog were inspired to create the new agency after attending the 1st World Conference of Catholic Legislators, held this year in Italy. The conference was presided over by Cardinal Christoph Schoenborn of Austria. The Cardinal has long warned Europe about losing its Christian, through both Islamification and Cultural Marxism. Orban and Balog, although both Protestants, met in a private audience at the conference with Pope Francis.
The new agency has a $3.3 million annual budget.
At a press conference on Tuesday, Balog underscored the urgency of raising the international community's awareness of Christian persecution. "Today, Christianity has become the world's most persecuted religion." he stated. "Four out of five people worldwide who are killed for religious reasons are Christians. In 81 countries around the world, Christians are persecuted and 200 million Christians live in areas where they are discriminated against."
Balog also pointed out that, while the worst persecutions are occurring in the Middle East at the hands of Wahhabi fanatics, European Christians also suffer from attacks led by political extremists. "It is also expected that we will keep a vigilant eye on more subtle forms of persecutions within European borders." he noted.
The Minister was referring most probably to a 2014 Vatican report which cited Radical Feminists, Homosexual activist gangs and other Cultural Marxists in the West as encouraging anti-Christian discrimination. Though the Hungarians didn't specifically mention North America, our continent certainly should be noted by the new agency. In the US and Canada there is considerable official and unofficial anti-Christian discrimination regularly practiced. In the Northern states of Mexico, violent drug cartels---many of which are led by known members of Satanic cults and covertly aided by US interests---are responsible for the murders of dozens of priests; as well as the destruction of several churches.
While Hungary deserves praise for this progressive initiative, it is unfortunate that our own government is so distant from such humanitarian concerns. Especially when we consider that the United States was the first modern nation to enshrine Liberty of Conscience and Freedom of Religion into law. Yet, sadly our government today not only aids and abets anti-Christian movements abroad, but encourages them domestically as well.
Hungary's new policy, however, is going to bring international attention to the problem. If international focus begins to turn on the plight of Christians, it may force changes here as well.

CLINTON TOXICITY
In today's political and intellectual climate, this was bound to happen. The US Corporate Media outlet The Washington Post (among others) has run an article suggesting that Hilary Clinton's recent health problems may be caused by deliberate poisoning. The Post, who brushes off actual hard-copy incriminating insider leaks about Clinton and Soros as conspiracy theories, was quick to insinuate that Vladimir Putin was the logical mastermind behind such a crime.
The Post is owned by media mogul Jeff Bezos. Bezos also owns Amazon, which received a $16.5 million contract with the US State Department during Hilary Clinton's tenure as Secretary of State. Amazon is also a contractor with the CIA, which goes a long way to explain its position vis-à-vis Russia.
Nonetheless, The Post cites Dr. Bennett Omalu, a forensic pathologist who became a celebrity after his 'discovery' that deceased football players actually suffered from concussions. It probably should have been presumed that men whose profession involves repeated blows to the head might suffer from concussions; but in the Prozac Nation such things as scientific breakthroughs---and of course generate lawsuits and media revenue. We should also note that along with the Corporate Media, trial lawyers and Big Pharma are among Hillary Clinton's top donors. The article today was written by Cindy Boren, a former sports writer.
Dr. Omalu recommends that Hilary Clinton be given an immediate toxicology test. His professional opinion, according to Ms. Cindy, rests upon this penetrating analysis: "I do not trust Mr. Putin or Mr. Trump. With those two anything is possible."
Ms. Cindy then goes on to cite another authority: a January Washington Post article insinuating that Putin was behind the mysterious death of Russian dissident Alexander Litvinenko in 2006. This story was based on a pre-BREXIT British inquiry at a time when Obama and Cameron were pressuring the EU on imposing tougher anti-Russian sanctions.
It is rather difficult to imagine that President Putin---an ex-KGB general with one of the world's top intelligence networks at his disposal--- allegedly could handle Litivenko so effectively in 2006 that even the biased British inquiry could find "only circumstantial evidence" implicating Russia, yet botch an attempt on Clinton so badly in 2016 that a doctor watching a Youtube video could uncover the whole diabolical plot. Unfortunately, Postmodern America is not well-known for its deep powers of reasoning, and Dr. Omalu's theory is going viral.
It's somewhat peculiar that given the sheer number of suspicious deaths that seem to surround the Clintons---including the still-unsolved murder of Seth Rich---that the Post would accuse Putin of an attempted assassination of a US presidential candidate. Or just as peculiarly given some of the shady foreign deals that the Clintons were involved in, that the Post should insinuate that Trump is guilty of treason.
I hope that the readers are seeing the dangerous patterns that have been emerging during the 2016 Elections. This election cycle is---bar none---the most disgraceful one is US History; and we've had plenty of bad ones. The street riots breaking out at rallies; the overt rigging of the Democratic Nomination; the blatant interference from Wall Street; the anti-Semitism, racism, and Fascism coming from the Alt-Right; accusations of treason and murder flying about---this election is looking like one from a Banana Republic, circa 1916. And this election is likely to benefit the American people just as much as any of those elections benefitted the people of Central America.

THE 9/11 SCAM OF 2016
On Sunday, the Prozac Nation's leading Corporate Media distraction, the National Football League, officially began its regular season. Now in sports---like everything else in Postmodern America---the personal is political. So naturally, the headlines today are filled with outrage and controversy.
With polls showing that high percentages of young Americans know nothing about the 9/11 Anniversary---which also incidentally happened on Sunday---one would think that Americans would be more concerned with our failing public educational system than about a few privileged millionaires who refuse to salute the flag. But such are Ameroboob priorities.
Football is considered a unique aspect of American culture. It's a strictly North American game, and even a tradition on some American holidays. But the NFL---and college football as well---long ago sank into the quagmire of the political correctness and moneyed corruption so characteristic of American society today. Today we have an inclusive NFL, with female coaches and sportscasters, and openly gay players. Some teams are disbanding cheerleaders as sexist; others are encouraging female players; and the boys are even sporting pink in honor of Breast Cancer Awareness Month---one of the PC NFL's leading social causes.
And the Corporate corruption is there too. From the collegiate level where athletes are given a free pass through college and schedules are fixed to promote certain teams---raking in millions annually from television contracts and the three-dozen-or-so college bowl-games; the NCAA is the corrupt tree on which the NFL is the poisoned fruit. The executives in both posture as pillars of society; but the fast buck is what it's really all about to any of them. When we look at the economics of the NFL today what we see are mercenary players and coaches jumping to any team that offers a dollar more than their current one. And behind the scenes, there are stadium deals; players' agents, TV rights, revenue-sharing, union bosses, contract holdouts, schedule shaving, rule-bending, Vegas oddsmakers---a whole host of unsavory characters looking for angle to cash in on.
Professional football---as it's practiced today---would probably be much less objectionable if it simply portrayed itself like so-called 'professional wrestling' and just admitted it was all a con-game put on for show. Unfortunately, professional football is also a part of our cultural traditions; and to admit that fact would be about as popular as cancelling the 4th of July just because our government no longer respects our Founding Principles.
Football was actually begun in America as a uniquely American sport. It was developed in the Ivy League schools during the 1880s. Its founders encouraged it to promote masculine virtues like physical fitness, leadership, teamwork, sportsmanship, and responsibility. And most importantly of all, a team represented the values of its school. Professional football began shortly after WW1. The same principles applied, except the professionals represented a city and were the top national athletes. But as narcissism and moral relativism took over the culture, athletes followed suit.
It's no wonder then that football players refuse to honor America. Their disloyalty to Nation is simply the natural consequence of earlier players, coaches, and owners' disloyalty to their community. It's not a huge leap from a greedy owner who'd move a whole team for a quick buck to refusing to stand during the National Anthem for a publicity stunt.
Americans who complain about these players' protests need to take a good look at how the situation got to this point. If you take people who are unqualified for college, run them through the PC universities and the corrupt NCAA; and put them in the even more corrupt and politically-correct NFL---what kind of behavior do you expect? Why should a player care about his community image? Some other team might offer him more money tomorrow; or the owner could move the team for a fat payoff next year. It's all about the bottom line, and the Smart Boys have little room for quaint ideas like teamwork and sportsmanship.
The issue is much deeper than a political statement. These incidents are a statement of how low we have sunk as a culture. The win-at-all-costs, look-out-for-number-one attitudes from our sports stars represent the morality of the culture which produced it.

THE AXIS OF EVIL
Although there has never been the slightest proven connection between the 9/11 attacks and North Korea, George Bush named that part of an 'Axis of Evil' allegedly responsible for promoting global terrorism. That fact there are no Islamic Jihadists in North Korea never seemed to be questioned by the Corporate Media. The Obama Administration has continued the same policies; taking on an even more aggressive posture than Bush's.
After returning home in shame this week following his humiliating failures at he G-20 and ASEAN conferences, President Obama received the further aggravating news that North Korea had successfully tested its fifth atomic weapon. Now one might logically assume that a country that the US has declared fair game for a pre-emptive attack; which has US troops and missiles on its southern border; and put under various US sanctions, might find self-defense a prudent course of action. Nonetheless, the Beltway is beating the tocsins of war again, hoping to salvage something out of the failed Asian Pivot.
Besides the Beltway grandstanding and Wall Street's eagerness to cash in on another conflict, we have previously noted that the Moonie Cult is instigating much of the Corporate Media and political propaganda against North Korea. That the Moonies had a major influence in Bush Administration policies was well-documented in John Gorenfeld's 2008 book, Bad Moon Rising. Obama's Administration has not lessened Moonie influence in Korea policy; in fact, the Moonies have quite a presence in the late Reverend Moon's homeland of South Korea as well.
Most Americans are unaware of the fact that South Korea is a hotbed of pseudo-Christian religious cults led by messianic figures preaching apocalyptic scenarios, of which the Reverend Moon was fairly typical. The one ideology these cults all share in common is a hatred for North Korea; which they see as some type of Great Satan obstructing their millennial and messianic missions.
South Korea's leading news media outlet, JoonAng News, has been reporting---always with anonymous sources---some of the most absurd allegations of North Korean atrocities, which the US Corporate Media reports like parrots. One of the most recent stated that North Korean President Kim Jong Un executed two top official with a cannon for falling asleep during one of his speeches. Others have him throwing people to wolves; killing generals with mortar rounds; kidnapping Americans for sex slaves, and other stories in a similar vein. They make Kim out to be a modern Nero; which fits nicely into their cultish religious paradigms.
JoonAng News is deeply invested in the American Corporate Media, especially with the news outlets Forbes and Newsweek with whom they have exclusive distribution rights in South Korea. Newsweek itself is a subsidiary of IBT Media, whose owners are disciples of---you guessed it---a South Korean religious leader named David Jang.
The Reverend Jang was once a rising star among American Evangelical Protestants, and was the founder of Olivet College. Jang had some previous shady relations with the Moonies himself; some allege that he was once a member of the Unification Church. Nonetheless, many churches have cut ties with Jang and his church. There seems to be a strong suspicion among many leading Evangelicals that Jang is promoting himself as a false messiah. In 2008, Jang was investigated by an ecclesiastical council in Hong Kong comprised of leading Asian Evangelical pastors. The panel concluded that Jang's doctrine "was in strong probability promoting doctrines similar to that of the Unification Church." Among the signatories of Jang's condemnation was the president of China Graduate School of Theology.
In addition to Newsweek, IBT Media also controls the International Business Times and The Daily Beast, among other media outlets.
Is it any wonder, then, that North Korea is developing atomic weapons? How else is an old-school Communist regime finding itself backed into a corner by Wall Street freebooters, a resurgent Japanese Empire, and collection of powerful religious cults desiring Armageddon on its soil going to react?
To be sure, North Korea is hardly a sea of tranquility and prosperity. But the Korean Crisis needs to be put in some perspective. That American foreign policy towards North Korea is largely being driven by cults and vested financial interests is far more dangerous to world peace than North Korea's experiments with largely-obsolete weapons technologies.
The true Axis of Evil is right here on our own soil. The unholy alliance between corrupt government, corporate media, and obscene religious cults is destined not to lead to anything positive in Korea or elsewhere.

ALT-RIGHT BLOGGER GOES ON RAMPAGE
A minor Internet writer of the Alt-Right named Emirjeta Xhelili went berserk in a Brooklyn Park yesterday and attacked two Islamic women and their 15 month-old baby. The women and child were not harmed, according to the NYPD; although Ms. Emirjeta ripped off the women's headscarves and overturned the stroller while shouting anti-Islamic Alt-Right slogans.
Ms. Emirjita herself is an Albanian immigrant, ironically. Albanians were given a protected immigration status during the Clinton Administration's illegal war during the so-called Kosovo Crisis. The US Corporate Media has been making a fuss over the incident, as Xhelili is Trump supporter; and her writings indicate that she sees The Donald as some kind of Messianic figure. Her writings are also with several novel interpretations of Biblical passages.
In fairness of course, we should point out that the Corporate Media routinely ignores much more serious crimes regularly committed by Far-Left 'activists'. But that is not the important point here: we all should know by now that the Mainstream Media is corrupt, and prone to engage in such biases.
The problem is that, as we and many other bloggers continually stress, the dangerous rhetoric coming routinely out of Alt-Right bloggers, the Manosphere, and radio shock-jocks are bound to provoke actions from a certain segment of the population. These commentators inevitably slink away from people like Ms. Emirjita when they go on such rampages and hide behind the excuse that they are being informative, not prescriptive--- a sophistry which is always employed by demagogues.
The reasoning behind this way of thinking may be shown by numerous examples. A Red Pill blogger for example recently stated that we are involved in a cultural war and that "your skin color is your uniform." If readers of that blog take such advice seriously and commit illegal or immoral deeds based upon it, the authors simply back away and say: "I only state an opinion. I am not responsible for what others do with that opinion."
Considering that most of the Alt-Right call themselves libertarian, it's surprising that they so readily forget the famous maxim of one of libertarianism's founders Ayn Rand: "Ideas have consequences." And actually Rand was restating what is a common legal principle of civilized peoples, that those who furnish the means towards, or incites a criminal act are complicit in that act. To accept the Alt-Right position is to fall back upon the Marxist sophistries of moral relativism and that the ends justify the means.
What separates the demagogue from the activist hinges on this informative vs. prescriptive model. The activist too, gives opinions and exposes problems, but the activist's goal is to bring awareness to a problem for the purpose of bringing about reform. To give examples from our own blog; when we expose corruption and wrongdoing it is to bring awareness to the problem and the prescriptive solution is to be wary of deceivers, or call for political, social, or economic reforms, or open investigations bringing criminals to justice. This is to be accomplished by our own legal and political system; and often we give examples of foreign countries who have had similar problems and solved them peacefully.
In contrast, the demagogue is a verbal arsonist. He intentionally frames arguments with incendiary statements, hoping for a violent or headline-grabbing result. Just as in the case of the arsonist, these characters receive some type of perverted thrill from the damage and chaos they cause. While none of them will likely admit that they approve of Emirjita Xhelili's actions, it's a safe assumption that most of them secretly do; and have a sense of satisfaction that their words are bearing fruit.
Given our Constitution's protection of free speech, it is more difficult than most other countries to hold demagogues legally accountable, although it is not impossible. The FBI, under J. Edgar Hoover's administration was able to bring a few to justice. The Courts have held that the legal criterion in such cases have to establish clear intent of inciting criminal behavior. Though strict, it is an important guarantee of freedom, but given our current political and social climate, legal remedies against demagoguery are not likely to be on the horizon anytime soon.
However, in the meantime, we can use the First Amendment itself as an instrument of Justice. We can expose these demagogues for what they are and criticize constructively what they are saying and doing. Our wise Founding Fathers understood this principle, and our Christian morality teaches us that it is better to convert an opponent than to destroy them. If Emirjita Xhelili had seen what she was reading and hearing for what it really was, she never would have attacked the Moslem family. Instead, she's rotting in jail charged with a hate crime, while Alt-Right demagogues go on talking and writing---reveling in the publicity and laughing up their sleeves.
Ms. Emirjita herself is an Albanian immigrant, ironically. Albanians were given a protected immigration status during the Clinton Administration's illegal war during the so-called Kosovo Crisis. The US Corporate Media has been making a fuss over the incident, as Xhelili is Trump supporter; and her writings indicate that she sees The Donald as some kind of Messianic figure. Her writings are also with several novel interpretations of Biblical passages.
In fairness of course, we should point out that the Corporate Media routinely ignores much more serious crimes regularly committed by Far-Left 'activists'. But that is not the important point here: we all should know by now that the Mainstream Media is corrupt, and prone to engage in such biases.
The problem is that, as we and many other bloggers continually stress, the dangerous rhetoric coming routinely out of Alt-Right bloggers, the Manosphere, and radio shock-jocks are bound to provoke actions from a certain segment of the population. These commentators inevitably slink away from people like Ms. Emirjita when they go on such rampages and hide behind the excuse that they are being informative, not prescriptive--- a sophistry which is always employed by demagogues.
The reasoning behind this way of thinking may be shown by numerous examples. A Red Pill blogger for example recently stated that we are involved in a cultural war and that "your skin color is your uniform." If readers of that blog take such advice seriously and commit illegal or immoral deeds based upon it, the authors simply back away and say: "I only state an opinion. I am not responsible for what others do with that opinion."
Considering that most of the Alt-Right call themselves libertarian, it's surprising that they so readily forget the famous maxim of one of libertarianism's founders Ayn Rand: "Ideas have consequences." And actually Rand was restating what is a common legal principle of civilized peoples, that those who furnish the means towards, or incites a criminal act are complicit in that act. To accept the Alt-Right position is to fall back upon the Marxist sophistries of moral relativism and that the ends justify the means.
What separates the demagogue from the activist hinges on this informative vs. prescriptive model. The activist too, gives opinions and exposes problems, but the activist's goal is to bring awareness to a problem for the purpose of bringing about reform. To give examples from our own blog; when we expose corruption and wrongdoing it is to bring awareness to the problem and the prescriptive solution is to be wary of deceivers, or call for political, social, or economic reforms, or open investigations bringing criminals to justice. This is to be accomplished by our own legal and political system; and often we give examples of foreign countries who have had similar problems and solved them peacefully.

CORPORATE MEDIA DUNCES ON DISPLAY
The US Corporate Media---which is rapidly becoming an even greater international laughingstock than it already is---graced us this last week with two more examples of why nobody should ever listen to their expertise on anything. This is especially true of foreign policy in general, and affairs in the Middle East in particular. As we have seen in previous articles, the Media Cartels are not only grossly ignorant of world affairs; their reporting is usually badly compromised by interested parties financially involved in media management.
The first incident came early this week when Libertarian Party presidential candidate Gary Johnson was interviewed on MSNBC. Johnson, though ostensibly representing a party of limited government, nonetheless supports homosexual persecution of business and favors a national sales tax. His candidacy is heavily financed by the infamous Koch Brothers. As if this weren't enough, when asked about the Battle of Aleppo in the Syrian Civil War, Johnson confessed that didn't know what Aleppo was.
And so, The New York Times, behaving as though Johnson was even a serious candidate, wrote a hit-piece mocking the LP's ignorance. Alan Rappeport, who passes for a journalist in today's media climate, said the following in the Times: "Aleppo is the de facto capital of ISIS." Which also happens not to be true: the capital of (what's left of) the ISIS Caliphate is Raqqa. The embarrassed Times quickly corrected Rappeport's blunder to read: "Aleppo is a major ISIS stronghold." Which is also incorrect. ISIS has never had much presence in Aleppo: the city was controlled by Al-Qaeda and its affiliates. The Times then ran another correction clarifying that Aleppo is the capital of Syria. As it happens, however, the capital of Syria is Damascus.
This is a major US news source supposedly informing Americans of the Syrian crisis. And staffed by pseudo-intellectual media elites like Rappeport who apparently can't find Syria on a map.
The next media blunder came from another character widely regarded as a great intellectual: CNN's Wolf Blitzer. Blitzer was interviewing Senator Rand Paul---one of the few US politicians to question arms sales to Saudi Arabia. When Senator Paul brought up the issue of Saudi atrocities in Yemen, Blitzer retorted by pointing out that a $1.1 billion arms sale was being held up by Paul's opposition, saying:
"So for you this is a moral issue. But you must realize there are a lot of jobs at stake. Certainly if a lot of these defense contractors stop selling warplanes and other sophisticated equipment to Saudi Arabia, there's going to be a significant loss of jobs, of revenue in the United States. That, to you, is a secondary issue?"
Well, Blitzer certainly has his own moral issues; which apparently puts the profits of defense contractors above the ethnic cleansing of Yemeni citizens. But this should come as no surprise: CNN is a subsidiary of Time-Warner. The top ten corporate shareholders in Time-Warner are also invested in the defense contracting industry.
Rappeport and Blitzer are certainly not unique in the Media Cartels; they are specimens, though, of the type of people who rise to undeserved prominence in a corrupt corporate system. With no domestic competition and no transparency or accountability to the public, the Corporate Media is under no obligation to hold to high professional standards. Thus any mediocrity on the Rappeport or Blitzer level can fill the position of 'journalist'; provided they have the right connections and the proper politically-correct attitudes.
