    That film only becomes more and more relevant as time goes on. Honestly terrifying now.

      Every once in a while I’ll mention the ‘Fairness Doctrine’ and someone who never lived through it will commnet that it sounds horrifying.

      They spent so much time in propaganda world that actual objectivity is a dangerous concept.

          You mean I have to listen to the arguments from the OTHER SIDE? They are WRONG and I only want to hear the news that tells me I’m right!

          We are all susceptible to it. We seek out validation.

          Then there is the whole “Well who decides…” and “government shouldn’t be telling people what they can and can’t say” which is understandable position at first until you understand what the regulations were actually doing.
