War and Empire Links: A Sampler

So, you watch CNN or NBC and don't know what to think... about Syria, about Iran, about Yemen, about Russia.
Consider that you're not getting the full story from mainstream media.
In fact, that's all propaganda. It really is an Orwellian world.

And its been going on for a very long time... at least since Edward Bernays, circa 1928.

If you want to immunize yourself from the government-approved talking-points, you need to read non-mainstream media, which has been labelled by some as "fake news" but is actually the real journalism that is being done to try to counter the actual fake news we're inundated with all the time by the usual sources (Washington Post, ABC, BBC, etc.)


For starters, read anything and everything by


Caitlin Johnstone,
