TRUTH-TELLERS

"Many people, especially ignorant people, want to punish you for speaking the truth, for being correct.
Never apologize for being correct, or for being years ahead of your time.
If you're right and you know it, speak your mind.
Even if you are a minority of one, the truth is still the truth."

Mahatma Gandhi

INDEPENDENT VOICES COMMITTED TO THE TRUTH

Whitney Webb / Spiro Skouras

"During times of universal deceit, telling the truth is a revolutionary act."

George Orwell

Jim Hightower / Bethan McKernan / Katherine Gun

"There is no reason to consider the United States' corporate and commercial media as any more "mainstream" than the leading Soviet media organs were back in their day. They are just as dedicated as the onetime Soviet state media to advancing the doctrinal perspectives of their host nation's reigning elite-and far more effective."

Paul Street

"You can either be informed and be your own rulers, or you can be ignorant and have someone else, who is not ignorant, rule over you."

Julian Assange

"For the western media, our leaders make mistakes, they are naïve or even stupid, but they are never bad or evil."

Jonathan Cook, 2011

"The process of media infiltration by the state and covert oversight by the Central Intelligence Agency transpired post WW2 throughout the USA.
The overt phase of Operation Mockingbird, as it's known in intelligence circles, officially began in the early 1950s.
The only way for the average citizen to really apprehend the true breadth and depth of this clandestine overthrow of American media is to understand this highly organized conspiracy that was hatched between the titans of Corporate Media, key officials within the U.S. Federal Government and strategically placed leaders within civil society. Once the deal was done by these Operation Mockingbird co-conspirators, America has never seen a free press since."

"The free press Americans have today is online and in the alternative media."
