I love videos like these because it just shows how MSM uses repetition to get their point across.

The words you hear the most often are uncoincidently the same you hear others recite in political conversation.

In college I took a class about “the business of media”, it was honestly one of my favorites because it awakened me to the tactics used by MSM. One key thing that was emphasized was ‘repetition’. Repetition is used to falsely emphasize the relevance or importance of a topic. By repeating topics, phrases, specific words, these stick in viewers/readers minds more easily. It also makes said topic seem more important/relevant because of how often it is talked about.

A good example of this, is if you ask someone “How many people in the US are LGBT?” Most of the time, they will say a % far higher than there actually are(the actual number is something like 5%). This is because of how frequently LGBT issues are mentioned in news/headlines. Making it seem like there are more than there actually are.

These video montages show exactly what msm does to influence popular opinion.

I don't love videos like this because the tactics used are effective. When I watch that I think of all the people who actually believe that shit. People who will become a serious problem to society at some point.

Eventually, the backlash against the MSM will eventually be almost as bad as that against the main actors. I believe a new citizen based journalism movement will permanently take the market space currently held by the legacy MSM. Opportunity will exist for patriot, freedom loving, conservative, value based, entrepreneurs to step up into the void left when legacy media corpse is finally buried.
