The news is not the news.
It's all propaganda, manipulation and influence psyops.
I'm still flabbergasted when I hear the hourly news updates on the local Classical music station. It is "straight" news but from a 100% leftist, progressive framing and narrative viewpoint. It's really a deceitful work.
Even the so called right wing talking head stations hourly updates use national news feeds that are subtle (or not so subtle) propaganda from the left. The use of framing techniques and redefinition of words to nudge the listeners or create cognitive dissonance.
Once you see this BS you cannot unsee it. The right does it also in their media but it's not as ubiquitous as the wall to wall every where leftist programming.
