FOOD FOR THOUGHT: If every subscriber to this mailing list donated $1 per week our minimum financial needs would be met. If we doubled the size of our list it would only take $0.50 per week. Being financed to this point would mean that TvNewsLIES could pay for its overhead and any money over this amount could go towards hiring reporters and expanding the new radio program. It would also allow TvNewsLIES could repay my original investment so that I can do things like pay the rent and buy food! Just something to think about. http://tvnewslies.org/html/an_urgent_message.html

TVNL Editor's Comments: A Math Refresher Course for Consumers of News

The U.S. has between a population of between 250-300 million people. A crime like the murder of a little girl (which happens more often than you think), or anyone for that matter affect about 250-300 people and with almost no exception has no impact on the electorate (the voting public), our lives or the world in general. It impacts friends, family, local law enforcement, a jury and a tiny segment of the legal system.

So when you watch a news network that considers itself to be covering “news” that is of a “national interest”, keep in mind that this vital story impacts or is of real interest to approximately one millionth (0.000001%, 1/1,000,000) of the population. Then think about the resources required to cover such stories to the extent out news networks cover them. And then try to think of one real journalist on the planet that would consider a story like that to be worthy of in depth national coverage.

So I ask you, does America really have a national news industry? I don’t think so. Think about it! – Jesse, Editor, TvNewsLIES.org

QUESTION: Have you forwarded this e-mail to anyone today? Consider doing so for you will be helping to inform the people of this nation about the vital issues that are hidden from them by our corporate media. Make this nation a better place, educate, inform and enlighten your fellow citizens!

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