media whore

MEDIA WHORES
Media whores is a term used in the early 60's during campaigns and refered to publishers and editors of newspapers that would not cover a candidate without an ad buy. The buy was refered to as a "little kiss". The more money a candidate had the more of a story they would get from the "media whores". If a campaign made an ad buy and counted on a good story but were then disappointed they would "kiss off" the buy with a cancelation.

There are over 200 presidential candidates in 2008 yet you only hear of 17 and that is the results of the entire media being media whores. Media whores will write no news stories to whore up to wealthy candidates, hence Edwards hair cut, Obama Clinton Spat, and Hillarys clevage, and Hillary walking down the street in Clear Lake, Iowa got ink.

Hive Media

Like a β€œHive Mind”, the majority of major media outlets (specifically in America), promote the same points of view and re-worded information in effort to sway the population.

In America specifically, all large media outlets have a blatant left-leaning view, and often cooperate with each other to form a central agenda of presenting progressive ideas as positive, and conservative ideas as discriminatory.

Many signs of bias are not specifically in the wording of news topics, but in the tone and presentation of them. When questioned about their stories and coverage, they will deny withholding information, and use each other as sources to show their β€œtrustworthiness”.

Ex: *Riot at the capital*
β€œMan, the Media Hive is really pushing this whole idea of it being a coup... even though if it was an ACTUAL coup, there would have been a lot more deaths and a massive firefight, but since all people hear is β€œcoup” from every source, they will start to believe it and see Republicans as national enemies.”
Ex: β€œThe Hive Media is undeniably existent if you look at who owns what. β€œAlphabet” is the parent company to Apple and Google, which both cooperate with Facebook in β€œantitrust actions”. And if you didn’t know, Facebook owns Instagram, WhatsApp, Oculus, and other smaller projects. This all basically means that the majority of the internet is influenced by a handful of people that all decide what media sources you see. If you don’t get how search results work; whoever pays the most to these companies get the top spots on searches, so media companies that have large amounts of viewers (money) will indefinitely stay in a position of power over the population.”
