TvNewsLIES Headline News

TVNL Editor's Comments: When information was leaked to the press that Valerie Plame was a covert CIA operative, they had no problem in reporting this top secret information to the public. When it was confirmed that Karl Rove was the criminal who leaked the information…the press fell silent. Not a word. Not a discussion. Not a mention on the crawler at the bottom of your screen? Is there room for any doubt to the claims that the American media has protected the Bush administration through crime after crime after crime? From the elections, to 9/11 to the Plame leak, to dozens of reports doctored or hidden from the public, the press has ignored, spun or underplayed the crimes and violations of public trust committed by the Bush administration. The media are indeed the enemy of the people. Think about it! – Jesse, Editor, TvNewsLIES.org

If you believe that the American corporate media is our greatest enemy and let the people know how you feel, here is a way to do so.
