Greek Protests/Riots
Edited on Wed Jun-29-11 12:25 PM by OKDem08
It's simply maddening the slant of CNN reporting on this issue. The reporter said dismissingly "who knows what they support" and indicated they were just there taking advantage of an opportunity, subsequently characterized them as hooligans and thugs. Honestly...WTF?!?!

1. I'll take
corporately owned media for $1000, Alex.

A: Network news, most of the time.

Q: What is corporatist propaganda?

Correct for $1000.

2. Did you really expect something different?
They've been doing that for years if not decades. Give up corporate media. They are hopeless and useless. The only thing that will ever change them is if people stop watching.

4. What do you expect?
Whores for capitalism, all of them.





These whores will not say that 75-80% of Greeks vehemently oppose these reactionary measures. This is what we do when they fuck with Social Security.
