lol Hey just a question folks. Isnt every news agency propaganda? Or are you guys selective on which agencys you call propagandized? I dont think they arent propaganda, but I certainly dont labor under the delusion everything out of the MSM's mouth is a lie. Lets be realistic here and not say absurd things.

I would challenge your point of view as it is very discriminating against some news agencies.
Here are two definitions for you
prop·a·gan·da/ˌpräpəˈgandə/ Noun:
1 Information, esp. of a biased or misleading nature, used to promote or publicize a particular political cause or point of view.
2 The dissemination of such information as a political strategy.
main·stream/ˈmānˌstrēm/ Noun:
1 The ideas, attitudes, or activities that are regarded as normal or conventional; the dominant trend in opinion, fashion, or the arts
If you consider the fact that alternative media is not mainstream, then not all media agencies are spreading propaganda; furthermore, if a mainstream outlet was to air abnormal or not so dominant trends and news, then they would not longer be considered "mainstream".
and to answer an earlier question of yours "where do you get your news", I say ANYWHERE other than the billion dollar profit media outlets provided by cable companies, satellite companies. When money talks, then money talk is all you will ever hear. there are commercials, then there are news (commercials in disguise). sell sell sell
Take your head out of the ice fishing hole. you sound either depressed and hopeless, or highly biased.edit on 21-2-2012 by Glargod because: (no reason given)edit on 21-2-2012 by Glargod because: (no reason given)edit on 21-2-2012 by Glargod because: (no reason given)
