They then proceeded to smash the sets, under a banner that screamed, “Dismantle Weapons of Mass Deception.” One television smasher, Noah Hypocrisy, told reporters that he was fed-up with the invasion of the military-industrial-media complex in his life, especially in light of the impending war on Iraq: “In the United States and other Western powers, the corporate-owned media depend on the military for information, accepting what military officers at the Pentagon or the White House spinners offer as undeniable fact.” “I’m not that gullible, and I’m mad as hell at what I’m seeing on my television set!” Hypocrisy said, in between hammer strokes with what seemed to be a Titleist golf pitching wedge. Another disenchanted viewer, Louisville Slugger in hand, lamented the heavy political biases she observes in the mainstream media: “In 2001, NBC Nightly News, ABC World News Tonight, and CBS Evening News interviewed U.S. sources who were 92% white, 85% male, and 75% Republican,” cried Ceci Truth. “How objective is that?!!!” Timed for the taping of NBC’s Sunday morning talk show “Meet the Press,” Meet the People barricaded the Nebraska Avenue entrance to the studios with a motley collection of their former television sets. Video of the dismantling will be available today at http://www.dc.indymedia.org . The People were determined that this was only the start. “We won’t stop here, and we encourage other thinking people to do similar actions. If the war on Iraq begins, we aren’t going to sit stupidly in our living rooms and accept the lies the corporate media try to feed us.” “We plan to seek out other weapons of mass deception: newspaper, radio, and other television studios. As their propaganda tries to drown out the truth, our level of disgust and resistance will escalate!” http://dc.indymedia.org/front.php3?article_id=53342&group=webcast ===== LMNOP http://lmno4p.org "No War for Oil!" __________________________________________________ Do you Yahoo!?
