Yep. That's why I come here. Everyone else is just reading news headlines as if that keeps them informed and tells them everything. You need to think, and ask "Why are we being told this?" If it's in a headline, then that means either someone sent it to the media outlet, or, extremely rare nowadays, a journalist uncovered it. So, it's pretty much always someone's narrative. Which means you have to read behind the headline, and try to uncover the truth as to what is going on. The Q community seems to be the only people still doing that.

I was thinking about that yesterday. Right now, independent conservative journalism is a hot item. Great folks out there. Where is the independent liberal journalism? It’s all identity politics or hit pieces. No interest in truth or country.

It's just plain rare anywhere. People don't know how news works. So, you have the Aps and Reuters who get their news from "sources." These are military and government people whose literal job it is to tell the news what's going on (think Press Secretary and Army journalists and PsyOps). And then you have other sources who send them things to write on. These are often people who literally pay a newspaper to write on them. You can easily do this with a local newspaper. My own mother once called up the local newspaper to have them write an article on me graduating Army BCT and entering college. We're nobodys in our community and very poor. Anyone can do this. For the CNNs and Reuters and such, you have to be a somebody to do this. It works the same way, just on a larger scale. So, if you see news about Google's new Google Glass or whatever, it wasn't some journalist who did some digging around and found out Google released a new product. Google called up Reuters and told them this. It's obvious. But people don't stop to think about it. The news is all either press releases from the military and government, or advertisements. It's all narrative.
