TvNewsLIES Headline News

TVNL Editor's Comments: While the intellectually challenged faces on our news networks are wishing you a happy “Fourth of July” I will take this opportunity to remind, or inform those uninformed and unintelligent talking heads that we are celebrating “Independence Day”, not simply the date of July 4^th!

While this seems like a trivial point it really is not. The word “independence” means something. We should think hard and long about what it stands for and why we celebrate it. We should think about the things from which we became independent. Then we should think long and hard about our current situation. Perhaps we don’t hear that word is because they do not want us to think about what it really means. Maybe they are worried that the citizens might once again decide that it is time for independence from an overbearing government? 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.

You can say that the Iraqis no longer live in fear from Saddam. That is good. But now they are getting killed by other Iraqis. This is a huge propaganda trip.
