Grant F. Smith talks aboutdocuments revealing how Israel’s lobby pitched, promoted, and paid to have content placed in America’s top news magazines with overseas funding. The Atlantic (and others) received hefty rewards for trumpeting Israel’s most vital – but damaging – PR initiatives across America.

see the documents here: American Zionist Council - Department of Information and Public Relations Reports

so much for unbiased media, what a joke

Now do you believe the "tin foil" folks ?

So quick to dismiss those that question the intent of our media industry.
Media is the biggest propaganda machine ever invented.

The fact that Congress got involved to insure every American had the ability to watch TV after the digital conversion should speak volumes and make you ask "why?"

I will be awaiting the sale of "anti-manipulation" cream on TV infomercials, but, I won't hold my breath. I am already skeptical about the msm, but even I am vulnerable, and that cream would come in handy !

The US media is biased in general.
As for Israel: These days usually the American media is biased against Israel.

I'm not surprised at all. Look at how much they buried Helen Thomas. Her comments WERE out of line, but she's a million years old for God's sake.

This is hardly news.

The little satan has always manipulated the big satan.

More than likely a fund raising tour for his mosque.
