Stop the Propaganda

I pause to address
the vulgarities of the Press.
The failure to honestly articulate
the desire to wrongly manipulate
any attempts to suppress
the truths that I address
that both sides
of an issue
need to be articulated
for a conscientious Editor
of the Press
to call it a newspaper;
for its not really a free press
unless all points of view
are addressed.

I think I agree with you here, James. We haven't had any honest reporting in a very long time. That's why we are in the mess we're in and don't look for it to get better anytime soon. That's what happens when the public allows themselves to be led around by the nose.

Thank you Marchmadness, Pantheress and Roniece for the wonderful responses...
When Hitler was in power the Nazi's controlled the press and I am feeling like too many times the Press is printing only one point of view...their view of how the World should be...James
