Interesting: MS-NBC and ABC are NOW broadcasting footage of the ethnic
Albanian refugees coming across the border from Kosovo and bogged down in
processing, and the pictures are entirely different from what's been run and
rerun endlessly till now. The refugees LOOK LIKE refugees, they're
ill-clothed and exhausted and no one is smiling.
What's more, in the segments by the train cars and in the woods that I've
recorded and replayed slo-mo, there are about an EQUAL number of able-bodied
men as women and children. Funny, suddenly no one __at the moment__ is
saying anything about the men being separated from the women and "vanishing"
en masse. The script has changed?
How does one account for the differences observed between earlier and current
footage?
Earlier, MS-NBC and CNN were showing us footage from unidentified sources,
using it as a backdrop to reportage about refugees; there were no
correspondents speaking on camera at the site portrayed, and the location of
what was shown was never spelled out.
This at a time when the media lamented having NO first-hand information
(e.g., video) about anything, except from deported journalists or UN
agenciers -- only second-hand.
So, where did the video of all the "refugees" come from until now? It'd
maybe be a bit too charitable to say "stock footage." Remember the famous
accidentally-intercepted network broadcast of airstrikes in Iraq, including
footage representing it, BEFORE IT REALLY HAPPENED? Same process, probly.
What you don't have, you MOCK UP.
That's simply the way things work in the broadcast media -- but it's a touchy
and highly
embarrassing fact, "easy to misinterpret," because it makes one wonder, WHAT
IF--?
"Question all that you 'know,' trust nothing you hear, suspect anything
you're shown."
