It never fails to amuse me how susceptible 'allegedly' intelligent people are to brain washing by the media.
Example 1 Every thread I see on a science forum with anti Islamic tones is filled with ignorance, and were I to forget I was on a science forum, I'd think I was reading the ignorant ramblings of school children with a second rate education. This is not to say some of the opinions expressed are not valid, but much of what I see is so out of proportion to the truth and filled with sweeping generalizations. Given the enormity of the Islamic population it is impossible for the statements made to be true.
Meanwhile I know that the people posting ARE intelligent, so I can only assume the reason for the ignorance is media brain washing.
Example 2 Heather Mills McCartney is getting a roasting by the press for what amounts to (even if true which I doubt) is minor deception within her personal relationships which many people are guilty of at some point or other. It is like 'So What if she told he boyfriend she was going to A and she went to B'...who cares. Making front page news with this nonsense is JUST a distraction from real world politics.
Meanwhile the UK public are sucking it up and cannot be objective. Few are sympathetic to this woman even though she's committed NO crimes and has spent the last 20yrs of her life doing charity work. In short they've been brainwashed.
I wonder why it is some people are immune to this type of influence and others are just sucked into it and seem unable to separate truth from propaganda and remain objective.
Perhaps it is merely ignorance of how the Political machine works?

Yeah CB, in this country as well when news anchors or whatever refer to China they always use the words "Communist China" why don't they just say China? Communism is a dirty word in this country and they want the people to keep their distance from their lifestyle. The American people receive a great deal of propaganda. "A free country" yeah right, it's free if you're rich Respond to this comment
