They then proceeded to smash the sets, under a banner that screamed, �Dismantle Weapons of Mass Deception.� One television smasher, Noah Hypocrisy, told reporters that he was fed-up with the invasion of the military-industrial-media complex in his life, especially in light of the impending war on Iraq: �In the United States and other Western powers, the corporate-owned media depend on the military for information, accepting what military officers at the Pentagon or the White House spinners offer as undeniable fact.� �I�m not that gullible, and I�m mad as hell at what I�m seeing on my television set!� Hypocrisy said, in between hammer strokes with what seemed to be a Titleist golf pitching wedge. Another disenchanted viewer, Louisville Slugger in hand, lamented the heavy political biases she observes in the mainstream media: �In 2001, NBC Nightly News, ABC World News Tonight, and CBS Evening News interviewed U.S. sources who were 92% white, 85% male, and 75% Republican,� cried Ceci Truth. �How objective is that?!!!� Timed for the taping of NBC�s Sunday morning talk show �Meet the Press,� Meet the People barricaded the Nebraska Avenue entrance to the studios with a motley collection of their former television sets. Video of the dismantling will be available today at http://www.dc.indymedia.org . The People were determined that this was only the start. �We won�t stop here, and we encourage other thinking people to do similar actions. If the war on Iraq begins, we aren�t going to sit stupidly in our living rooms and accept the lies the corporate media try to feed us.� �We plan to seek out other weapons of mass deception: newspaper, radio, and other television studios. As their propaganda tries to drown out the truth, our level of disgust and resistance will escalate!� http://dc.indymedia.org/front.php3?article_id=53342&group=webcast ===== LMNOP http://lmno4p.org "No War for Oil!" __________________________________________________ Do you Yahoo!?
