Gary Allen Quote 

"We believe the picture painters of the mass media
are artfully creating landscapes for us
which deliberately hide the real picture.
In this book we will show you how to discover
the "hidden picture" in the landscapes presented
to us daily through newspapers, radio and television."

I haven't read the book but, the first sentence is an astute in the obvious observation.

The media's job is easy -- fantasy is a multi-billion dollar business. The truth? 'You can't handle the truth!' ;-)
 -- E Archer, NYC
 
A lot of journalists get killed trying to report the truth and then there was Watergate

More bull crap. When we set a policy or take a course of action we try to put our best foot forward. When we have a first date we dress up and put on smelly stuff etcetera. Our we not alweays artfully creating landscapes and hiding our realselves. Give us a break, really! I don't fault those who try to put their best foot forward and yes it is also okay to try to find out the real person, or the real policy.
 -- Waffler, Smith, Arkansas
 
They are what they are. The "picture" is what it is because most journalist and news sources think alike. Not because they are controlled. Once you see and understand them it is not hard to read between the lines.
