Manufacturing Consent 2.0 Links

What YouTube is doing to the ‪Representative Press‬ channel could be called Manufacturing Consent 2.0 I talk about it in this video:‪ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UMECO9mUrnA‬ and at the end of this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sijMX3voPOo&feature=youtu.be&t=3m47s


Byline interviewed Noam Chomsky, to find out his views on the current media landscape. Are the media still "manufacturing consent"? https://www.byline.com/column/3/article/7

"an alternative model is public support for the widest possible range of information and analysis and that should, I think, be a core part of a functioning democracy." http://marker.to/ZBMvf4

Think about retrofitting Voice of America through legislation to mandate that it be totally under the control of the people, totally transparent and dedicated to serving the needs of all Americans. Think how fast we could reach that tangible goal. https://www.youtube.com/user/RepresentativePress/about

"In the late eighteenth and nineteenth centuries, besides using printing contracts to subsidize favored party organs, the federal government supported the press in what First Amendment lawyers today would call a "viewpoint-neutral" way--through cheap postal rates that were available to all newspapers. And since the 1960s, both the federal and state governments have aided public broadcasting, which has enabled public TV and radio stations to become important sources of news." - Will the Last Reporter Please Turn out the Lights: The Collapse of Journalism and What Can Be Done To Fix It by Robert W.
