When The Man On The Street Isn't Just Any Man On The Street

Alley Insider's Michael Learmonth writes about a guest who appeared on Fox Business Network today. An FBN reporter in Washington, D.C. talked with "online shopper" Peter Perweiler. But it turns out Perweiler isn't just any "online shopper." Learmonth reports he is the marketing manager for the National Retail Federation.

>Update from an insider: "The National Retail Federation is off base for planting employees to speak to the media as if they were actual consumers � it's beyond unethical on their part."

4. As if Fox didn't know.

It's all shill, all the time with those jokers. Scratch any Faux News story and you'll find a corporate interest lurking just beneath the surface.

6. Is FauxNews business channel still on the air?

How they can they reasonably expect that anyone with money to invest will watch fauxnews to keep track of their investments.

7. I can't imagine the level of whoring taking place on that channel.

I've never seen, but I'm sure it's just a cheerleading channel. Certainly of little use to a serious investor.

9. Bushevik Lies, Bushevik Propaganda. They don't even bother to hide it.

Someone in Marketing figured out that, in trems of the actions of a large group, it DOESN'T MATTER if 1% knows the truth, so long as >70% believe the lie and that 1% has no access to mass media that could possibly raise "truth awareness" to 10% or higher.

So long as the number of people who know the truth are >3% or so, we are harmless to Bushie Monsters.

Psychology has unlocked a treasure trove for manipulation and control of the peasants by their/our Masters. None so powerful as this simple understanding of Large Group Psychology.
