Talk about manufacturing consent. CNN’s history of broadcasting fake news in support of invading countries for profit continues in Libya.
Arwa Damon has never met a psyop and or an imperialist invasion that she didn’t like. She is the gold medal poster-girl for fake, war-mongering news and has held that title for sometime now, taking the title from aging and completely discredited Wolf Blitzer. At this point she has to be getting a percentage of the corporate raping of these various countries with as much lying she has done over the years to help them sell their wars of aggression most recently in Libya and Syria.
CNN has shipped her lying butt back from spinning up lies in Syria to handle the ongoing psyop in Libya. A new video of her’s is pretty pathetic. In fact it may rank up their with the Syrian Danny bullshit and the ever classic Charles Jaco performance from 1990.
But today she has taken a page from the old school book, staging a “dangerous” report from Benghazi where she pitifully attempts to blame “pro-Gadhafi loyalists” for the recent unrest in Libya. She’s dodging bullets and looking left and right, tucked behind a wall while everyday Libyans drive looking at her and her film crew like they are idiots. That’s because they added the sounds of the gunshots in during post-production just like that asshole “Syrian Danny” did in his CNN “news” interviews.
Watching Arwa make a complete fool of herself reminded me of something, the classic 1990 Charles Jaco video in which it’s made perfectly clear that the entire thing was staged. Jaco’s clowning with the crew and pretending to be under fire. Very funny moment when he and another CNN liar have to stop to put on protection and one puts on a gas mask while the other puts on a helmet. Funny shit.
Here are three videos that will make you laugh. 1. Arwa Damon’s “serious’ news bit from Benghazi, 2. Charles Jaco’s leaked bullshit story from the 1990 Gulf War, and the ever classic 3. “Syrian Danny’… nuf said on that.

Heh. Almost as good as
Almost.
Thanks for the laughs, willy…. that last one took the cake….:)
CNN is now reporting that they have found the ambassador’s diary…in the abandoned consulate…that was engulfed in flames…a diary that noted his fears about security over the last several months…but was only 7 pages long. Hmm kinda sounds like Atta’s luggage, Holmes’ notebook, etc, etc.
ps. how do i put a link on here? im still a relative newbie
HI indiansfanBrad,
you click on desired ‘story’…. and look up at address bar… see the link? then place your mouse on link… let it turn blue …right click your mouse and ‘copy’ link…. then go to the blog and start a new comment… and right click your mouse and ‘paste’….. link will appear…’
that’s how I do it… some of these smart people probably have a quicker and better way….
yes, sounds like a ‘prop’ has been placed …. a journal of all things…
I probably can’t do it then cause i only work off my phone. Like Willy, no computer
I’ll try citing the link then.
It’s amazing how stuff turns up so conviently so that it can spread the story. The 9/11 passport to name another.
thanks jan10

we live in strange days!
I am sad to see Common Dreams, Democracy Now become Democrat Party astroturf sites using lies/hype to gin up the base and keep liberals voting for NeoCon wars under Obama, they cant tell the truth about Libya and Syria, after 12 good years ICH is printing establishment constructed disinfo, a shame … stop repeating the views of the Democrats. Where were the reporting in articles on:
1. US drones mapping Syria targets, (NBC 2 months ago)
2. Hillary threatens Pakistan over pipeline and joining SCO
3. Libya Quaddafi execution Geneva war crime
4. Libya invasion was because of petro dollar, threat of trading currency change.
5. Assad provides universal health care for Syrians?
5. Free Syrian Army armed by America targets TV stations, court buildings, govmnt buildings, civillian targets
6. Are we to believe Assad is bombing his own govmnt/military headquarters?
7. logisitcs/training excercises in Jordan multinational preparation for Syria including 250 US soldiers.
8. lethal and nonlethal aid given to FSA by US
Deepak Chopra, get real. Dr. Oz is next? If we want govmnt agents why not Anderson Cooper?Thom Hartman is all VOTE FOR OBAMA on his radio show … but CENSORS FACTS LIKE OBAMA STARTED LIBYA AND SYRIA, a Democrat Party hack, not a progressive. Also foreign policy articles are full of DISINFO – MEK bought way off terror list, oh please. Any article by Fisk, Raimondo, Juan Cole, Chomsky all govmnt apologists
Chomsky less so, but I agree with what you are saying.
You know, I just noticed a disturbing article on the nifty new Global Research site which was promoting the propaganda line that the Green Resistance in Libya killed Stevens when obviously it was our own “sheikist” Salafist Muslims (ie: Muslims that don’t care about Allah as much as they care about American and Saudi dollars)
So I have to wonder about Global Research now as well.
But good comment. Good points. You might want to read the new article I just put up. A quickie about the left cover of Obama continuing for 4 more years.
The uniform blindness of “liberals” on the various “democratic” fronts has become rather ubiquitous whether its phony Maddow pushing the Green Revolution in Iran State Dept PsyOp, or Amy Goodman pushing the fake
NED Suu Kyi in Burma anointed by Washington. A reporter during the Marshall Plan got a Pullitzer for reporting there was no nuke fallout from Hiroshima, was taking orders from THE MAN, so it is not new phenomina.
I will be a reporter too, but I want Katie Courics annual 40 million salary
she just got in her new deal at ABC. It pays to be CFR. Ask Angelina with her new “lets invade Syria” cause. “Honorary CFR member” my ass.
