TvNewsLIES Headline News

TVNL Editor's Comments: If terrorists killed 3 million Americans with a nuclear device, terrorism would still pale other threats to the lives of Americans. 5 million people die each year as a result of smoking alone. Are we taking the threat posed by the terrorists who are trying to sell you cigarettes seriously? No. As a matter of fact many members of Congress support the murderers in the tobacco industry.

Of course cigarettes are just one of many threats to our lives posed to us by our corporations. Environmental toxins and greenhouse gasses are of course the biggest threat. I remind you that terrorism might be the greatest threat to nation security, but national security is not even close to being the greatest threat to Americans. Perhaps the media should stop scaring us into thinking that it is. Think about it! – Jesse, Editor, TvNewsLIES.org

If you believe that the American corporate media are our greatest enemy let the people know how you feel.
