Consider the impact of the total control of the news and ‘truth’ distribution in this country. The Second Amendment is attacked but it’s the First Amendment that is broken.

But far more dangerous than lies are the media blackouts. This is third-world stuff I never thought I’d see in this country. Media blackouts are how dictators come to power, how tyrants defeat the people, and how despots keep control.
The national media has erected a wall of silence between Obama and Hillary and the American people. It’s a complete blackout, where mainstream media refuses to report anything that might damage Obama or hurt Hillary’s chances of winning this election. The press bias is so blatant, so widely recognized, that a foreigner, Wikileaks founder Julian Assange, called them on it.
Even more pernicious than the political blackout is the media void on the pending internet giveaway. Oh, you didn’t know we’re handing off the internet? Well, how could you? Probably the biggest story of the century, and it’s 100% buried.
Nice timing isn’t it? A month before the election the last conduit of the truth and forum for open dialog among free men and women is being handed over to those nations with the worse reputations for censorship in this world.
Fact is, Obama’s handing off our internet to foreign interests. That’s right: in less than three weeks, the United States will abdicate control of the internet. Yet the only sound from the press is crickets. Oh, there’s an occasional article acknowledging the ICAAN transfer but telling us not to worry – Russia, China, Mexico, or the U.N. would never censor the internet. Again, journalistic malfeasance endangers democracy and our Constitution.
In a few weeks it may no longer be possible for me or any other American blogger to write words like this and see them posted in the open.
Exaggeration? For what other reason would the Obama administration take a single step in this direction. What possible reason?
