PLEASE SUPPORT TvNewsLIES.org!
FOOD FOR THOUGHT: We now have enough subscribers to support TvNewsLIES.org if every subscriber to this mailing list donated $1 per month! 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
Support us with a simple click of the mouse!: If every subscriber to this site clicked on some of the text ads on the news page we would probably earn enough advertising revenue to keep going without donations!
SHOP WITH US! – If you use our links on the side of the news page when you shop at your favorite online stores we receive revenue from the online shops and it costs you nothing!
TVNL Editor's Comments: Mood Music? Is That Journalism or Manipulation? The recent obsessive coverage of the Virginia Tech shooting by the establishment media serves up many examples of what is not journalism. Although I can point out about 50 problems with the coverage of this event the one aspect that stands out as an obvious and egregious violation of journalistic ethics is the establishment media's use of mood music for this coverage. While music is constantly used to instill fear or tension into the so called news coverage on our TV sets, the sad heart wrenching intro and background music that is being played during the coverage is a clear and obvious example of how the criminals who claim to be journalists are in fact shaping your opinion and manipulating your emotion; and they are using every tool and method available to do this including music. A journalist is supposed to have the same effect on you as a paper delivery person has. They are supposed to deliver news to you and you and that is it. You are not supposed to find out how they feel about the news and they sure as hell are not supposed to try to tell you how they feel about the news. Their job, as defined by their claimed profession, is to report recent events without bias or opinion. That's it. They have to simply read reports to you about what is taking place. They can show you pictures and films but they are not supposed to manipulate the information, craft a fancy package to deliver it or create an atmosphere that is intended to influence how you feel about what you are hearing. So let me ask all of the senior anchors on the so called news networks and news programs; which journalism class taught you about how to select the appropriate music for a report? Or did you learn that in your propaganda class? Think about it. - Jesse –Editor, TvNewsLIES.org NOTE: You can respond to my daily comments on my blog, located here: http://tvnewslies.org/blog |

CONGRESS : http://www.tvnewslies.org/news/#congress |
US lawmakers rail against KBR, former Halliburton unit, for alleged abuses on $20B contract - Lawmakers and the U.S. inspector general have accused KBR, formerly a division of Halliburton Co., which was once headed by U.S. Vice President Dick Cheney, of abusing federal rules in record-keeping on the current contract. Nearly $2 billion (€1.47 billion) in overpricing on the contract has been identified by Pentagon auditors and government investigators, lawmakers said. RNC To Waxman: We’ll Only Show You The Emails We Want You To See - In a new letter to the Republican National Committee, House Oversight and Government Reform Committee Chairman Henry Waxman writes that the RNC has provided only minimal information regarding White House officials’ use of RNC e-mail accounts.

But we heard not a word of that, nor of the trial in absentia in Italy of a US soldier accused of shooting dead an Italian intelligence agent, nor of the report that North Korea may be about to shut down a key nuclear reactor (which would be very big news indeed if true.) And somebody shot dead the Mayor of Nagasaki. But who cares? Instead, nothing but Virginia Tech.

Former
F.C.C. Chief to Join Providence Equity - Mr. Powell, who
stepped down as chairman of the Federal Communications Commission
in January, is joining Providence Equity Partners, a private
equity firm that has in recent years built a $9 billion empire of
holdings in media and telecommunications companies. Alberto Gonzales to Be 'USA Today' Guest at WHCA Dinner - That approach makes for some interesting mixing of newsmakers and those who cover them. Mood Music? Is That Journalism or Manipulation? - While music is constantly used to instill fear or tension into the so called news coverage on our TV sets, the sad heart wrenching intro and background music that is being played during the coverage is a clear and obvious example of how the criminals who claim to be journalists are in fact shaping your opinion and manipulating your emotion; and they are using every tool and method available to do this including music. CNN -- The Most Twisted Name in News - ALL media, print and electronic, are obscenely obsessed with the shooting at Virginia Tech — none more so than CNN, the most “twisted” name in news. CNN anchors are on the scene in full investigation mode, mercilessly interrogating university officials, police officials and friends of those murdered — “how did it feel?…how will this affect your life?…should someone have seen Cho Seung-Hui’s “break” coming?…Who’s responsible?…tell us — tell us how you feel…What is it like — to see your friends in the hospital?…What are you going to do next? How are you going to move on? Al-Jazeera Memo Trial Starts in London - A British government official and a former political researcher went on trial Wednesday for allegedly leaking a classified memo in which President Bush reportedly referred to bombing the Arab television station Al-Jazeera. "America at a Crossroads" veers to the right - Intellectually, historically and journalistically, this is inexcusable. It's outrageous to devote this much time and money to a subject and never deal directly with one of the central issues. It's as if someone made a 12-hour series about the Civil War and decided to omit slavery. |
HEALTH & SCIENCE : http://www.tvnewslies.org/news/#health |
Ovarian cancer linked to Hormone Replacement Therapy - More than 1,000 women may have died from ovarian cancer in the last 15 years due to taking Hormone Replacement Therapy, British researchers have claimed. |
HUMAN RIGHTS WATCH : http://www.tvnewslies.org/news/#rights |
Amnesty exec: U.S. is abuser of rights - What makes this attack so serious and damaging, said Larry Cox, is that it is not just coming from governments that have always demonstrated contempt for human rights. It is coming from a country that has long been held up as the champion of human rights. |
OF INTEREST : http://www.tvnewslies.org/news/#interest |
JFK Vs The Federal Reserve - "United States Notes" were issued as an interest-free and debt-free currency backed by silver reserves in the U.S. Treasury. We compared a "Federal Reserve Note" issued from the private central bank of the United States (the Federal Reserve Bank a/k/a Federal Reserve System), with a "United States Note" from the U.S. Treasury issued by President Kennedy's Executive Order. They almost look alike, except one says "Federal Reserve Note" on the top while the other says "United States Note". Also, the Federal Reserve Note has a green seal and serial number while the United States Note has a red seal and serial number. |
