TvNewsLIES Headline News

TVNL Editor's Comments: How do the media get away with protecting the lies of the Bush administration? How many reports have come out exposing the fact that the Bush administration has either hid, blocked or out right changed information or reports in order to push their agenda? They have changed scientific reports and economic studies time and time again, each time in an effort to prevent information that would prove that the administration was lying about something. Most of the lies hid direct health risks or economic risks that would have a huge negative impact on Americans and sometimes the world.

The media never inform the public about this even though it is a regular occurrence. The public has to catch on eventually being that these little reports seem to happen on a weekly basis. When will red state America get tired of being lied to? Think about it! – Jesse, Editor, TvNewsLIES.org
