7. One of the psy-ops tricks that CNN and Faux News use
Edited on Thu Jan-22-04 12:31 PM by SpiralHawk
is to keep the screen filled with information. You really have to work hard to process all of it, and there really is no time for reflection or digestion. The stream is endless.

Thus, the main story can command only a fraction of the average viewer's attention. It's all a blur. People pick out and recognize that with which they can identify emotionally.

The medium is the message.

And guess who owns the medium?

Pull the cable. Big Brother has got his hand in your money pocket, and his nose up your butt.
