A Current Affair

[Nooby]

Is it worth pointing out that all the western media are owned and controlled by 6 corporations (soon to be three)? Or that most 'news' comes from either Reuters or AP, or that Reuters actually OWNS AP anyway, and that the Rothchilds (yes one of the banking mafia families) own Reuters?

 

quid bono , who profits?

 

In the war against the wonderful plant, who profits?

Honestly, just don't watch that shit. I saw an ad for it and consciously avoided it.

All it does is make me angry.

Thanks for that study btw.

Indeed, it's a genetic predispostion [just like addiction], nothing whatsoever to do with marijuana . . . and as to ANY 'main stream' journalist being respectable, I think not, they are all sell outs to the almighty dollar, they'll spout ANYTHING if it means their pay packet is secure . . . they're all spineless and gutless with no conscience in my opinion . . .

 

And Budman, are you talking about the Catalyst progam on the ABC? That was so 'Reefer Madness Noughties Style' it was a disgrace . . . I've still NOT received a decent reply in any form from the ABC about that load of bull [why am I NOT surprised?!?!]

 

Awww man. I saw that Catalyst piece a while back. I was pretty appalled really. Especially seeing as it was coming from a program which is supposed to present an accurate representation of the scientific studies not just one of them.

 

It was pretty much about this one dude who smoked too much pot eh. Big deal, that proves shit all.

Catalyst is normally a good program though.

It would be interesting to know all the facts in this case. And I mean all the facts.

We are talking about a media presentation here. They don't believe in facts or the truth.

 

sounds like media to me

+ + precisely... For all we know they smoked so that killing themselves would be less painful.

so true, as long as the story is at least mildly believable and there aren't huge amounts of facts pointing in the other direction they will tend too write the story with a real life base but turn it into a fictional tale of BS.

dude i never knew that... well let me rephrase i knew the first part but was unaware that the Rothchilds owned Reuters. The things one could achieve controlling the media !

Hey Darkspark,

 

I had a look on the Catalyst Website for ya. Here is the link to the ABC's Reeeeefer Maaaadness [LINK]

 

The subtitle is: "Is there truth behind Reefer Madness? The data is in and so is the verdict." - What a crock.

 

peace.

Typical ACA crap, they do anything for a headline. I really don't see how people continue to watch this show.

[chilldil]

PLEASE, NO MORE THREADS with ANYTHING to do with ACA or TT!! Mindless f#cking sensational moronic dribble. Sad so much of the nation watches the crap. Ideally I'd set all the staff members of both shows on fire just for stupefying the nation further. No morals these days....
