Don't agree with Corbett that the 'information war is over'... Archived Message

"... and we have lost" The opposite is true, proven by the increasing desperation and money being thrown at sock-puppets, government "media freedom' conferences and massive money grants to foreign media outfits, the blatant censoring of RT and PressTV, Integrity Initiative-type outfits, the way The Guardian has ripped its own curtain aside, the way BBC stacks its interview panels, etc. Despite all this, hatchet jobs seem to backfire: for example, despite the heavy barrage of propaganda against Corbyn, he took six points in the polls recently? Hatchet jobs rile up people and cause people to question more - which is an unintended, undesired and ironic consequence of big propaganda campaigns. Which side, ultimately, is losing the information war? The monolithic mind-control story has its limitations. Reminds me of South Africa in the late 80s, when information warfare was at its peak, in a sort of frenzy. The harder media and politicians peddled the propaganda, the more their petticoats showed, for all to see.
