Our media protects thieving corporations by deflecting their thievery onto the government and politicians. Listen to this journalist.

1. I'm not complaining.

I can suffer for the sake of my Ukrainian brothers and sisters and STILL blame the OILIGARCHS!

2. QUIT calling them journalists !! a slam against real one's !!

3. Americans never blame business for their shitty lives - it is always government. Capitalism

is engrained and brainwashed into most lives at a very young age - much like religion.

4. The main question should have been why is the media not putting the blame on the oil companies?

The answer is that the oil companies are some of the biggest media advertisers! During the BP oil spill litigation my boss tried to appear on the MSNBC, CNN, ABC and CBS shows he had been on before about the 2005 BP Texas City plant explosion. All of the producers we dealt with told us no because the networks were not airing BP oil spill victim impact stories. BP and the other oil companies threatened to pull ads if they did.

Big corporate advertisers control which stories we hear about and the ones we don’t. Look no further than the old McDonald’s coffee case to see this in action.
