You can not do today's job
with yesterday's ideas and
be in business
TOMORROW

This image is from the side of an abandoned building where an American company failed to pay attention to its own sign.

That sign could be hanging on the side of the Conservative America building soon.

For more than 50 years, a Marxist cancer has been aggressively metastasizing in the American body politic. Marxism is feudalism with a new name. The Marxist goal is to reduce Americans to the status of serfs. Unbeknownst to conservatives until it was too late, the Marxist Left infiltrated and took over large trusts and foundations so they could gain access to the huge amounts of money that they needed to accomplish their goals. Through a deviously masterful and long-term program of propaganda and infiltration they have risen to dominate/control film, commercial television, public radio, public television, newspapers/magazines, the Internet, and primary and secondary education. Like the sappers and miners of old, they have been using these organs of public influence to deliberately undermine, destabilize, and ultimately destroy the culture and institutions that hold this country together. Family, faith, education, government, the list goes on. So far, they have been largely successful.

Whatever you choose to call them, the Marxist Left, "Progressives", communists, socialists, etc. have brought this country to where it is today with the skillful use of one weapon of war: propaganda. You may or may not be able to describe each and every technique in detail but you know it when you see or hear it, it isn't hard to find, and it's really irritating. Unfortunately, it's also really effective. The Left uses propaganda because it works. This is a fact, not an opinion. That conservatives have utterly and miserably FAILED to counter that propaganda is also a fact. If conservatives do not acknowledge that failure and act instead of whine, they will be continuing to do today's job with yesterday's ideas, and they will NOT be in business tomorrow.

The Unpleasant Realities And What To Do About It

You are here

The first step in solving a problem is admitting you have a problem. We are going to cover what they are and then propose potential solutions. If you agree, we want your comments, and maybe later, your help. On the other hand, if we don't hear from anybody, or conservative Americans think our partial solution is a stupid idea, or nobody cares, we'll sit back and watch the trainwreck from the stands but nobody is going to be able to say we didn't try.

Ok, here's what you will find here:

1. THE battlespace for the future of America is the major media. It defines politics and culture. Regardless of what happens in this or that election, the Right will continue to lose unless it wakes up from its state of denial and acts - NOW

2. The conservative/Republican Right has been a complete, miserable, and utter FAILURE when it comes to this battlespace.

3. The conservative/Republican alleged leadership is largely willfully ignorant, in denial, or would rather whine about these problems than do anything.

4. The Marxist Left is overwhelming us and winning on 7/8 public influence fronts. You probably have no idea idea how bad it is. We'll show you.

5. The Internet alone is NOT going to solve our problem and relying on the Internet as a primary source of influence is doomed to FAIL.

6. The first step in solving this abject FAILURE on our part runs counter to conservative instincts and we’re going to ask you to comment on it and/or help us with it

7. We CAN reclaim America. It won't happen overnight, but if we don't start now, when will we start?

WARNING: This piece isn’t written in obsequious, grant- application-Weaselese. We’ve tried that and it went in one ear and out the other for over a year - that is, assuming we could get anybody to read it in the first place. This is written in simple English and is addressed to the American People, not the Gucci- ballerina-shoe-wearing professional politicos who got us in this position in the first place.

Furthermore, these issues require an attention span, something that seems to be in short supply in America these days. If you want a 10 second answer to a 50 year problem, cut us a check for $20m and we'll take care of it for ya :) We’re not going to pull any punches because the time for being polite and politically correct is over. If you’re more concerned with style over substance or, if you can’t handle constructive criticism or, if you want to keep doing the same thing over and over again expecting different results, you might as well click-out now.

And just in case we haven't made it clear already, we're not here to crap all over our own team and then walk away. We're here to identify the problems we have and then at least, try to fix them.

There is a Marxist pResident in the White House along with a pack of gangsters in Congress who are flushing this country right down the toilet faster than anyone ever imagined so we’re not interested in stroking egos, WE’RE INTERESTED IN RESULTS.

LEAD, FOLLOW, OR GET OUT OF THE WAY

Commercial Broadcast Media

"The war's over. It's over, I saw it on television!"

Since the media is the battlespace, we need to examine what it is, what it does, and what its limitations are. The largest component of the media is commercial broadcast so we're going to look at that first.

The first step in solving a problem is admitting you have a problem. What is our biggest problem?

1. The Right doesn’t know how to communicate and influence the public anymore and

2. we surrendered the means of distributing our message.

We were so busy minding our own business, raising families, making an honest living, and leading productive, moral lives that we forgot that there are immoral parasites among us who want to enslave us. To do that they use the mass media and we let them have at it.

The question has been asked who was the most influential person in the 20^th century and usually the answer is Hitler, Stalin, Mao, etc. We believe the answer is Josef Goebbels. His development of the Big Lie technique of mass influence, among others, is one of the primary reasons we are where we are. Hitler understood that you get more mileage with hate than anything else. Combine that with ubiquitous, audacious Big Lies, and you get the NYT, MSDNC, etc.

If you haven't seen Wag The Dog, go rent it. Pay particular attention to the emotional manipulation achieved by the music in the scene with Willie Nelson leading the jingle singers. Never underestimate the power of commercial broadcast media to set the perception of reality. If the public is constantly exposed to television/radio panel discussions involving how far or fast pigs should be allowed to fly, sooner or later a good number of them will start believing that pigs actually do fly. The faulty premise that pigs can fly is assumed and the discussion follows from there. This is a favorite technique of the Left. "Since the entire world agrees that we're all going to die of global warming in 5 years, how much additional tax money should we spend on this crisis?" TV and radio is rife with this.

goo goo gaa gaa
social justice!

Right-leaning talk radio is successful because it appeals to people who like to think. Leftwing media appeals to people who don’t want to have to think. They want the problem they’ve been told they have wrapped up in a snappy catchphrase so they can avoid thinking. Example: The reason Lefties are so quick to jump on the gun-control bandwagon is that contemplating the prospect of defending themselves is just so unpleasant that they wish their problem away when some puppetmaster gives them a slogan. It's not logical but it works.

Ever notice that the Left always uses simple, catchy phrases based on emotion to sell their swill? "Saturday Night Special", "Cop-killer bullets", "Bush lied, people died", "No blood for oil" etc. The Left caters to the bumpersticker, adolescent mentality. The Nazis had the Reichministerium für Volksaufklärung und Propaganda  - or RMVP, under Dr Joseph Goebbels. (info).

The Left's "Ministry for Popular Enlightenment and Propaganda" includes everything but talk radio.

Let's put who owns the media and how little the Right gets to use it aside for a minute. There are major differences in the way the Left and Right use the media. The Left understands they’re in a streetfight but instead of a broken bottle, their weapon is the mass media. The Right on the other hand, acts like they’re engaged in a friendly debate in Moot Court under Roberts Rules of Order.

The only thing that matters in a streetfight is who is still standing at the end. The stakes being what they are, losing like a gentleman to a dishonorable opponent is stupid. For example, in a debate on gun control, the pro-gun side holds up a chart of statistics, Sarah Brady holds up pictures of dead babies. Statistics vs. Dead Babies. Dead babies wins every time. The Left just bashed the Right over the head with a garbage can and the Right asks for a point of order. This crap has got to stop.

Imagine this instead. A video starts with a smartly dressed young woman walking down the street at night. Suddenly she’s grabbed from behind - with one hand over her mouth, a look of panic and terror in her eyes, she’s dragged backwards into a dark alley. Camera goes black as they disappear into the darkness. Next scene, Dirtbag is coming out of the alley tucking his shirt in, looks both ways, and the crane-shot over his shoulder zooms down the alley to a pair of woman’s legs sticking out from behind a dumpster and the sound of a woman softly crying is heard. TAPE REWINDS. Woman is being dragged back into the alley, camera catches the flash of three shots. Woman appears from the darkness, puts her gun into her purse, gets out her cellphone, starts speaking to a 911 operator. Crane-shot down alley to Dirtbag’s legs sticking out from behind the dumpster. Black screen, side-by-side images of the woman's legs and the Dirtbag's legs. White text underneath that says

One scenario, two different outcomes.

Which one do you want for your wife or daughter?

This dose of reality brought to you by:
Someone With A Clue How Make A Point

You know what would happen if it actually got made and actually got any exposure. The Left would go berserk. Just imagine the look on Chuckie Schumer's face. They’d trot out the usual cries of "This inflammatory propaganda is inciting vigilante justice!" and "We don’t think it's appropriate for people to take the law into their own hands!" They’d whine around the clock for a week.

Who cares? Smile! It wouldn’t matter what they said or how long they whined. The image of that woman’s legs sticking out from behind the dumpster would be permanent. Anything the Left said after the fact wouldn’t stand a chance next to that image. A devastating first-strike the Left could not recover from. THAT is streetfight communications.

If the Right knew how to communicate, had the cahones to do it, and were more interested in winning than donations from geldings, they’d be scaring the crap out of women. Isn’t that what the Left is doing with their pictures of dead babies? "Well, we don't want to stoop to their level!" Would you prefer to be dead? Besides, it's not a matter of stooping anywhere. It's one thing to knowingly lie like the Left does using emotional images representing statistics they fabricated from from whole cloth. The stats they cite for accidental deaths of children are fraudulent (like including every dead gang-banging drug dealer under the age of 25 in their class of dead babies); it's entirely another thing when the stats the Right can cite for assaults on women are true. So who exactly is doing the stooping and why hasn’t that video and others like it been produced? Unfortunately, even if we recruited the money and talent to produce that video, where would it get shown when the Right doesn’t have any distribution?

By the way, as this is being written there are some very effective commercials airing on TV exposing the fraud of government managed healthcare "reform." Why are we always spending a fortune on TV commercials, at the last minute, when we're backed up against the wall by the Left with one of their manufactured crises? If we had any long-term, persistent media exposure that could have pounded the issue home, this crap might never have come up in the first place!

While we’re on the subject of how the Right doesn’t know how to communicate, let’s talk about how...

When it comes to the media, the Left always attacks from the extreme left, the Right always defends from the center.

Any good wheeler-dealer will tell you that when you're negotiating over something, you don’t start by asking for what you think you will get in the end, you start by asking for every last thing you want and a whole lot more. Business 101. The Left relentlessly produces and distributes their propaganda product everywhere they can and as often as they can. Stupid 9/11 conspiracy theory "crockumentaries" produced by brainwashed teenagers in their parent’s basements, enviro-whacko global warming theories promoting UN control of everything. Promotion of the radical homosexual agenda to de-stabilize the family and the military. There are absolutely no outrageous positions the Left won’t put forth with a straight face. The more outrageous the better and the more often the better.

When the Right is called on to respond to some Socialist outrage du jour, they always want to appear "reasonable" and "measured" and because of that, they fail miserably. They fail miserably because a) they’re responding to something that never should have come up in the first place had they had an effective offense, i.e., they are constantly caught off- guard, and b) they are not naturally streetfighters.

The get suckered into arguing with the children on the child's terms instead of telling them to shut the hell up, the adults are in charge. And why do they do this? First, because they're incompetent, and second, they do it because if they do actually manage to muster the testosterone to call it the way it is once in a while, they get hammered non-stop in the Lefty media and have no place for cover or to conduct their own attack.

Commercial broadcasting is inherently compromised. Don't let anyone kid you, commercial broadcasting is about entertainment first. Don't get us wrong. There's nothing wrong with entertainment per se. Look at what Glenn Beck does on FNC. He does a great job of jamming more important information into one hour than practically anybody else and he does it entertainingly. He went from zero to a rockin' 2 million+ a day audience in no-time - in a really crappy time slot no less. With that said...

The Right, to the extent they get any airtime, relies on commercial programming which by its very nature must be weighted towards entertainment and frequent commercial breaks in order to make a profit. In television for example, anything really important gets 6 minutes sandwiched in between the latest lesbian-midget murder trial, Paris Hilton, Al Sharpton, and twenty minutes of commercials.

And what about the 3 day Freak-A-Thons? The world is going to hell in a NY minute, Congress is jamming the most destructive legislation down America's throat at a rate and scope unprecedented in the history of the nation and and we get three 24/7 days of maudlin crap over a freak entertainer? If that doesn't tell you where commercial broadcasting's priorities are, we don't know what will. And if you thought the latest Freak-A-Thon was bad, just wait till The Swimmer keels over.

If you're a commercial talk radio listener and bothered to clock a popular, 3 hour per day show, you'd find that almost 50% of it is news, sports, weather, traffic, and commercials. So 90 minutes out of 3 hours is actual "content." What that means is that  serious, in-depth discussions are often hampered by frequent interruptions. Many, not all, of these shows involve opinion reinforcement rather than presentation of new information. This is not always the case but it is the nature of the beast.

The Effect of Advertising In Commercial Media

The lizard and J.P. Morgan

Advertising is what makes the commercial broadcasting world go 'round. As annoying as it can be, no advertising = no programming. Advertising is a good thing. On the other hand....Despite what the little green lizard would have you believe, the insurance and banking industries are not your friends. They're businesses and their business is to get as much of your money as they can get away with. There is absolutely nothing wrong with that so long as your interaction with them is voluntary. However, these industries are certainly not above using their friends in government to compel you to pay them - or else. Any industry that compels you to pay them, or has their friends in government compel you to pay them - or else - is in the same business that Tony Soprano is in whether or not it has the veneer of legality.

Now, if the little green lizard or the mega bank is pumping millions of dollars of advertising money into our pockets, or our affiliate's pockets, do you think we're likely to say anything too critical of them? Wall Street (Goldman Sachs) is running this country now, just rolled Congress like a drunk in the park, the insurance industry stands to make a fortune off operating forced, government dictated healthcare (just like they do with compelled car insurance), and who in commercial broadcasting, except maybe Glenn Beck, is going to stick his financial neck out to point this out?

Again, don't get us wrong. As far as commercial television is concerned, the problem isn't that there's something wrong with the few conservative-leaning shows out there,

the problem is that there aren't enough of them.

As far as commercial conservative-leaning talk-radio is concerned, there's plenty of that except that 50% of it is eaten up by things other than the program itself.

Remember, get out of the weeds and think BIG-PICTURE. It's not just the nooz media, it's any programming where politics can be injected or where societal norms can be trashed. It's not just FNC vs MSDNC or CNN. You can't say we've got Rush or Beck and the competition stinks and conservatives don't watch that stuff anyway. The ratings for MSDNC or CNN stink but they're just a couple of slices out of the big Marxist pie. Look at the total number of hours of all types of programming, and what types of programming can have politics creep in. The Left doesn't just have MSDNC and CNN, they have ABC, CBS, NBC, PBS, NPR, the BBC, and a whole bunch of non-nooz cable channels that day after day, hour after hour, dribble out a Lefty message. How many times have you seen a cop, doctor, lawyer, reality, or some other drama or entertainment show where Lefty politics is presented as the norm or is assumed? Have you ever [gasp] seen what they do on " Taxicab Confessions"? It's a freakshow that had to be dreamt up by a coke-addled hollyweird with voyeur issues. We'll spare you the details. What about music programming? CMT versus all of the softcore musical porn addressed to 12 year olds and those no-talent, worse-than-useless-rappers pimped out by liberal white music execs who are ruining the chances for an entire generation of young blacks. You can't watch the danged weather channel without getting a dose of it. Just because you don't watch a lot of decadent TV doesn't mean the rest of the country is like you.

Commercial Media Bias And The Whining About It

THE ENTIRE CONCEPT OF UNBIASED NEWS MEDIA IS A LIBERAL CONSTRUCT DESIGNED TO NEUTER THEIR OPPOSITION

The bad joke is that we fell for it and we continue to fall for it. In the days before film and television, everybody knew there was bias in the newspapers, there were lots of them, and people just bought the paper they liked. When newsreels arrived, was there any pretense about objectivity? Somewhere along the way somebody decided there should be some standards and "journalism" schools started showing up. In the old days, newsmen were called newsmen. What is news anyway? In theory, "news" involves facts, not conclusions. Example:

Newsman: "Mainstreet Trainwreck Causes Property Damage"

Journalist: "Bush Tax Cuts Cause Trainwreck"

Conclusions are a matter of opinion. When you're a "Journalist" it's easy to forget that news involves facts, not conclusions.

Conservatives and Republicans like private enterprise don't they? And isn't MSDNC a commercial enterprise? Do you like the idea of somebody trying to tell you how to run YOUR business? Just because MSDNC happens to be owned and operated by a bunch of hypocritical Marxists, they can operate their business any way they like, can't they? Just because you bought into their song and dance that they're supposed to be unbiased doesn't mean they give a fat rat's butt - or that they have to. They're going to do exactly as they like and there's nothing you can do about it except change the channel - OR START YOUR OWN NETWORK.

The problem with changing the channel is that 90% of the other channels are also owned and operated by lying Marxists. If conservatives started their own additional news network and had someplace to run it, they could adhere to the standards that almost nobody except Fox adheres to (sans Sharpton) and be successful because they actually have a legitimate argument. They might actually convince some "normal" Democrats if they could get them exposed to it. Yeah it would be nice if "news" was straight down the middle and "you decide" but is that what 90% of the news media is doing? Even FNC screws up from time to time.

Conservatives have what amounts to a prisoner mentality. Ever see the old WWII footage of the Japanese soldier throwing potatoes off the back of a truck into a sea of waving arms of their POW's? That's US. The Marxist Left throws us a potato once in a while and we scramble after it. And then we whine that we're not getting enough potatoes in their prison camp. When are conservatives going to break out of THEIR prison camp and START OUR OWN NETWORK?

What we're talking about here isn't "media bias", it's a propaganda war. Marxists are waging it, and America is the target.

Recently there was a “ Conservative Leadership Summit to Confront Media Bias” and perhaps it was just an oversight that nobody called us for our opinion.

Don Irvine said:

“Instead of doing the same things we’ve been doing for years, we hope to strike off in new directions, develop new techniques and try new approaches — and do so as a coalition, rather than separate organizations, with each focusing on its own concerns.”

(insert sound effect)

When you are the subject of a propaganda war, there are only two choices:

1) Silence the opposition or,

2) Out-produce the opposition

So exactly what "new techniques" and "new approaches" are they going to try that is going to out-produce ABC, CBS, NBC, CNN, MSDNC, PBS, NPR, and the BBC?

Are they going to put up yet another useless website that nobody knows is there in an attempt to out-produce an enemy with a daily aggregate audience of 20 million plus?

Gee, one of the suggestions in that article was a "A Drudge- Style Report On Media Bias"...

Do we really need to have Captain Obvious report for duty here?

Why do we get the feeling that when they "strike off in new directions" that means changing the direction of the circle they're going in within the same prison camp?

We are NOT questioning the integrity or sincerity of the participants of that conference, we're concerned that they're not addressing the real problem,

which is the fact that THE RIGHT HAS NO DISTRIBUTION FOR ITS MESSAGE.

"What do you mean we have no distribution for our message, we have...." Sit tight, we'll get to that.

Non-Commercial Broadcast Media

Bear with us here for a minute, this is important. When most people think of non-commercial, or "public" broadcasting they think of PBS. The Public Broadcasting System was set up by Congress in around 1967 and has a TV side and a radio side. Contrary to what most people think, it isn't some monolith where all of the programming originates and is controlled from one giant source.

Each public broadcasting station is a member-station of the PBS system but each station is free create, "upload", and "download" whatever programming they like as long as it's non-commercial. In otherwords, let's say your local college station has its own public radio and TV station. Those stations can create their own programming and make that programming available to other public broadcasting stations by way of a master distribution system maintained in Washington, D.C.

Your local station can also receive by satellite whatever programming they want to air that originated elsewhere, like a documentary that was produced by WGBH-TV in Boston, or NPR programming. NPR is a "content producer" just like any independent production house. They make their programming available to "subscriber" stations for a fee. There are other independent operators that produce a lot of the programming that PBS stations carry. On radio, Minnesota Public Radio is one of them.

What most people don't realize is that ANY non-commercial entity can produce non-commercial programming and make it available to ANY public broadcasting station that wants to take it. You don't have to kiss some liberal's butt at PBS/NPR in order to make your programming available to EVERY public broadcasting station using the same satellite distribution technology that PBS/NPR uses. However, just because somebody puts some programming up on the PBS satellite system doesn't mean any particular station has to carry it.

Ok, now that we've got all of that boring stuff out of the way, we're going to talk about the way the Left uses public broadcasting and the hierarchy of their propaganda distribution.

As bad as the propaganda in commercial broadcasting is, public broadcasting is MUCH WORSE AND MUCH MORE EFFECTIVE. We know it's hard for conservatives to believe that public broadcasting propaganda would be more effective than commercial broadcasting but it's true. Whatever you can say about the people running the Marxist Left, they are not stupid and they're winning. The amount of money they spend on non-commercial broadcasting is staggering and they wouldn't be doing it if it wasn't working for them. We'll show you how much shortly.

Marxist Target #1, Useful Idiots: The "Liberal Intelligentsia"

Yuri Bezmenov, KGB defector discusses how to destroy a country

One thing the Left has always understood (and the Right still hasn't figured out) is that if you want to propagandize a population, you have to target the "intelligentsia" first. (See sidebar PermaSmile of Evil)

You've heard the expression "S___ flows downhill"? Well, that's the way it works with propaganda. Marxists target and create the liberal intelligentsia first.

Do yourself and your friends a favor some time and watch a KGB defector talk about what they do here:

He discusses how demoralizing and destroying a country is done, how the US is Target #1, and who they use first.

You MUST watch these videos from beginning to end.

There's a pecking order to propaganda distribution and it flows from top to bottom like this:

Hardcore Marxist sources like Pacifica/DemocracyNow
Academia - PBS Radio & TV - Newspapers/Magazines
Cable TV
Network TV

Do not make the mistake of discounting the importance of non- commercial, Marxist propaganda distribution. Marxists would always prefer to use somebody else's money to get what they want before they'll use their own. Whenever they decide they need to fabricate a crisis so they can tax/extort/control some measure of your life, they get some of their hacks in academia to do a study or write a propaganda book on the crisis du jour. Those hacks introduce the "story" into the KGB Broadcasting Network which serves as a cue for more "mainstream" outfits like PBS/NPR/NYT to run with it. Finally after it's had a little while to percolate, the commercial broadcast networks go with it and voila! It's reality. "...I saw it on television!"

Here's a perfect example. The Marxists hate the military. Any way they can find to trash the military they will. Have you heard people in the "mainstream" media repeat the statement that "America has 737 military bases around the world" as if there are goose-stepping American colonialist stormtroopers oppressing people all over the globe? It's a lie. When you think "American military base" you think Pearl Harbor; a huge, sprawling, military mini-city bustling with people and bristling with weapons. There are actually only 34 of those and they're almost all in friendly countries like Italy, Germany, and Japan who enjoy being paid handsomely to host them.

What the Left did to spread this particular lie was to find a commie author who looked up the Base Structure Report for 2007 where they list every single piece of property that the American military ever heard of. This rat bastard author then looks at the total at the bottom of the list and claims we have 737 military bases when in fact, he's counting a rented storage closet or 3 guys in rented building the size of a small house in Aruba as the same type of base we have in Pearl Harbor! Yep, those other 3 guys that we have at our "military base" in Norway sure are furthering our imperialist empire expansion there! If somebody wants to discuss whether 34 bases around the world is too many, fine, we can talk about that. The "...737 military bases around the world" is just BS.

So the KGB Broadcasting Network interviews the commie toad that wrote this book, and spreads the juicy but phony talking point about the 737 colonialist-oppressor-Evil-Empire-America military bases and it percolates down from there. Before you know it, Ron Paul is repeating it on FNC as if it were fact when all it is is Marxist propaganda.

This is just one small example but that's the way it works.

BEHOLD, COMRADE! The KGB Broadcasting Network is on the air!
Too bad it's right here in America.
On over 700 stations, in 48 states, every day,
plus 2 channels on DISH and a channel on DirecTV

The KGB Broadcasting Network

It's a malignant disease spreading throughout the whole country!

Every KGB Broadcasting Network station is like a truck carrying pods into your community. There are over 700 of them in the US creating Marxist pod-people every day. No, we're not kidding. Once a person has been brainwashed by propaganda, there is nothing you can do with them. They are lost. No amount of facts, evidence, or argument is likely to change their minds, even if what they believe is not in their own best interests.

We call them the "KGB Broadcasting Network" because the content might just as well have come from the KGB. The KGB did have a long and documented history of creating and distributing propaganda and they (or the same people) are probably still at it. Unfortunately, our own homegrown Marxists have attained enough momentum that the KGB, or its successor, the FSB isn't even necessary any more.

The flagship poseur news program of the KGB Broadcasting Network is called "The War and Peace Report" brought to you by DemocracyNow! and hosted by Amy "Useful Idiot" Goodman

	They're on radio and TV and this is their website. You can find out where the disease vector station nearest you is by looking at their station list here.
	FSTV, which is a 24/7 satellite TV channel on DISH, is the primary transmission vector for Amy "Useful Idiot" Goodman. They run her Marxist propaganda several times a day but, when they're not doing that, they run an array of other Marxist "crockumentaries" and "programming"

Amy "Useful Idiot" Goodman

This is the "useful eediot" that Yuri Bezmenov refers to that makes DN happen. Her name is Amy Goodman. She started out at WBAI, New York, the east coast affiliate of Pacifica. It's a difficult story to follow but, our guess is that she knew her production had potential and she wanted control (and the money that came with it), so there was a temporary falling out between her and Pacifica while her show expanded. Pacifica now carries her show again.

She's a sock-puppet that gets used by people like Noam Chomsky, Howard Zinn, et.al. [Pardon us while we mutter expletives under our breath.] Ward Churchill is one of her buds. She's a mouthpiece and facilitator for every vile, Marxist propagandist there is. Ever wonder where those retard kids that wear the T-shirts with the image of Che Guevara on them get the idea that it's "cool" to wear the picture of that psychopathic, mass murderer? Or the Zero campaign headquarters with the Che posters on the wall? On the anniversary of Che's demise, she spends 45 minutes of a national radio and TV broadcast in effect, glorifying him.

Want to hear a commie author trash Christians as fascists? How about a "news" report from an unknown source claiming the American military randomly carpet bombed a Muslim civilian neighborhood with an unknown translator for a plaintive off-screen victim named "Mohammed"? (No, we're not kidding. Let's go to Iraq and see if we can find the guy named "Mohammed" to verify he really said that stuff. What network do you think she got this footage from?)

Just fire up her show - you name the stupid, Marxist, Big-Lie crap, she's got it.

She's the one that thinks that PBS/NPR are corporate shills for Halliburton. She's so far out there, she can't even recognize her own teammates.

The really scary part about all of this is that the KGB Broadcasting Network only amounted to 5, crappy little urban FM stations from the '50's into the '80's. Just 5 crappy little stations with no TV. With the advent of reasonably cheap satellite technology and the concerted effort by the Left to build and promote community radio stations, and then push their propaganda into "mainstream" public broadcasting stations, their reach went from those 5 crappy little stations to well over 700 in less than 10 years.

Extrapolation of this curve would indicate that they are probably spending in excess of $8,000,000 per year at present. And that doesn't count any freebies they get from other Lefty outfits. The Left is famous for coming up with dozens, if not hundreds of organizations, all doing each other favors, so you never get the big picture.

Three years ago it was reported "The skeletal four-person crew has ballooned to twenty-seven full and part-time staff, including seven radio and TV producers, two outreach organizers and, yes, a professional archivist."

Their staff page currently lists 20 people, which probably doesn’t count lower level employees and interns.

If this propaganda ramp-up
doesn't scare the crap out of you,
you're not paying attention.

Guess what!? They have a new affiliate! It's bad enough that they take every opportunity to trash America and our military both here and in Europe, now they can do it all over the Middle-East!

And look who's a friendly guest on the KGB Broadcasting Network lauding Amy and her program. The righteous face of the "reasonable" Left, PBS's Bill Moyers. What a surprise. NOT.

Alan Dershowitz, not exactly a John Birch Society member, said of Amy Goodman’s program ,

"Democracy Now! is the Pravda of the airways."

Captain Obvious is getting frustrated.

Let's not forget LinkTV. This is the Soros funded, international propaganda exchange channel. It's on DISH and DirecTV. They take the KGB Broadcasting Network from here in America and send it to Europe. They also take propaganda originating in Europe and bring it here. On the same day on LinkTV, we found a pro Sami Al-Arian and a pro Castro "crockumentary" and those were just the ones that were obvious. Even we get tired of wading through the volume of Marxist crap out there.

Then there's Pacifica. They carry Amy but the rest of their stuff makes Amy look like Jim Lehrer. They only claim around 100 stations but the content is appalling.

In 2007 the Ford Foundation spent $97 million dollars in the United States on "peace and social justice" and "knowledge, creativity, and freedom". This is WAR, not "media bias." Outside the US, they spent another $56 million dollars.

PBS and NPR

You're already familiar with what they do. They aren't raving lunatics like Keith Goelbermann. They prefer the "kinder, gentler" form of indoctrination. Like proceeding from faulty premises. They take their cues from the KGB Broadcasting Network. Bill Moyers, is the discredited 1960's Marxist that takes "Bush Lied-People Died" and stretches it out into a whole paragraph so it isn't so obvious that he's just another Amy "Useful Idiot" Goodman. He's a regular propaganda industry unto himself because his production company produces a lot of the garbage that passes for "crockumentaries" on PBS. As well as the usual Bill Moyers tripe, they're also starting to get a lot of programming by way of ITVS which is funded by the Soros and the Ford Foundation. You can expect that as conditions in America deteriorate, the propaganda content will increase.

It appears that the strategy of the Marxists is to gradually displace the usual "kinder, gentler" propagandizing that PBS/NPR does by using the "shelf space" approach that businesses use. General Mills understands that there is only so much space on the shelf at the grocery store. It is in their interest to crowd out any competition, like products from Post, in that limited shelf space. They want to produce as many products as possible, even when the ingredients are just wheat and lots of sugar, and then pay the grocer to put as many of them as they can on the shelf.

As you can see from the table at the bottom of the page, Marxist enablers like the Ford Foundation and Soros are pumping huge sums of money into content creators. In particular, ITVS is a major recipient and has become an important player in producing content for PBS. Where content used to be produced primarily by PBS member stations, they may be getting pushed out of the "shelf space" by Marxist funded independent producers. WGBH-Boston gets half a million, ITVS gets ten times that much.

ITVS is increasingly used for content that airs on PBS.

ITVS is a front group for leftwing money to insinuate itself into public broadcasting and send/receive leftwing propaganda internationally. In 1999, ITVS helped launch LinkTV which is the Soros international satellite propaganda exchange channel. ITVS works closely with the likes of foundations like  the William and Flora Hewlett Foundation, Ford Foundation and John D. and Catherine T. MacArthur Foundation.

They have also established a network of relationships with both public and private broadcast outlets including PBS series such as Wide Angle, FRONTLINE/World, P.O.V., Independent Lens and Secrets of the Dead and the PBS WORLD digital channel’s Global Docs series, and commercial channels such as Sundance Channel, IFC, National Geographic Channel, The Documentary Channel and LINK TV. In addition, ITVS International has developed distribution deals with digital and mobile outlets such as JAMAN, AOL, CURRENT [Al Gore's propaganda channel) and iThentic.

Then, there's the "Beeb"

You may not realize the extent to which the BBC is now being aired on public broadcasting stations. The BBC is a British government owned and operated broadcasting operation. It used to be that if you wanted to listen to the official organ of the socialist British government, you had to tune in to it via shortwave radio. Not any more. The BBC is all over public radio stations, sometimes more than three hours a day. We monitor them every day and half the time we're wondering what planet they're on. It's like an alternate reality. Remember, the BBC represents an emasculated, socialist society in decline and their reporters have been widely characterized as terrorist apologists. During the beginning of the war in Afghanistan, a BBC reporter was ordered removed from one of their own ships in the Persian Gulf for his biased reporting. When the British military is ejecting their own BBC reporters, it must be bad. Believe us, it is.

As you can see, PBS/NPR isn't just Kermit the Frog anymore.

In 2005, the Ford Foundation spent  $50.5 million dollars  on public broadcasting. This is WAR, not "media bias."

The Right thinks non-commercial public broadcasting is a waste. The Marxists don't see it that way and they're winning. Would a winner spend this kind of money if they weren't getting their money's worth?

From: Here

How much has the Right spent on non- commercial, public broadcasting lately? <crickets>

Firing Line

Are you old enough to remember when Buckley was on PBS? Conservatives used to know that non-commercial broadcasting was important to do. While we think it's a mistake to attempt to debate professional gasbags like Chomsky, that doesn't mean we shouldn't be in that battlespace.

If you like details, you can download a study we did on what the Left is spending and where by clicking here.

One of the "Good Guys" in DC, Capital Research, commissioned this study on the Left's media efforts at our suggestion.

This is WAR, not "media bias"

In the past when you saw some reporter's obvious liberal tendencies creeping into his work, that might just have been bias, bad editing, or a lame producer. What the Marxists are doing today is waging WAR and your country and your children are the target.

When somebody spends tens of millions of dollars annually and hundreds of millions in a few years to promote Marxist, ideological propaganda, that isn't "media bias." The Marxist Left is spending amounts of money akin the budget of a foreign government.

In 2005, the Ford Foundation spent  $50.5 million dollars  on public broadcasting. This is WAR, not "media bias."

We've come across a lot of pompous, self-proclaimed authorities on the media from the Right who dismiss non-commercial public broadcasting as an inconsequential waste. The Marxists don't see it that way and they're winning. Would a winner spend this kind of money if they weren't getting their money's worth?

Do you think that they would have spent this kind of money in 2005 if they weren't thinking about how it might influence the election in 2008?

ITVS is packed with Marxists, and the Sundance Documentary Fund is a front for Soros. They spent more money on obviously Marxist outfits than they did on PBS-TV. There is absolutely no pretense about what they're doing on LinkTV and they pumped 4.5 million dollars into it.

They're here already! You're next!

"You're in danger! Can't you see? They're after you! They're after all of us! Our wives, our children, everyone! They're here already! You're next! You're next! You're next!"

Most people don't realize how well established authentic Marxists are, right here in America. Usually when you talk about them people think you're Art Bell talking about aliens. They really are here and they're not hard to find - if you bother to look for them.

We know they use the media, and the KGB Broadcasting Network in particular, as propaganda "change agents." One of the easiest places to find and identify them is in academia. Most of them aren't as flamboyantly stupid as Ward Churchill. Most of them are relatively low-key although they do get a kick out of publishing a lot of their swill which makes them easier to find.

David Horowitz has done a really good job of documenting the Marxists in academia. We won't go into it here except to ask you to take a quick look at the pages in the following links. This "Marxism 2000 - the party's not over" conference was held at UMass-Amherst - which isn't particularly surprising. You might be surprised to learn that this webpage was hosted by one of their fellow travelers on a Notre Dame webserver. Scroll down the list and note how many of these Marxists there are, what university they work at, and look over the presentation content. These tapeworms are mostly working at state universities, are probably tenured, and were probably using your tax dollars to fly across the country to this Marx-fest.

Remember that the KGB Broadcasting Network is their favorite programming and these degenerate tapeworms are teaching your children.

Marxism 2000 Conference Schedule

By the way, The same organizers are still at it.

David Ruccio, Marxist pod-person See sidebar, PermaSmile of Evil

Just in case you thought we were kidding about the Notre Dame connection, here he is. Why not tell the ND alumni you know to give ND a call, particularly if they're an alumni donor, and ask them why they're running a MARXIST INDOCTRINATION CENTER.

The following image was captured from http://rethinkingmarxism.org/cms/ on 090717. RETHINKING MARXISM is the rag of the organizers of that Marxism 2000 conference. Read the description of the latest issue of their rag below and note the emphasis on Antonio Gramsci and the Frankfurt School. We won't go into the Frankfurt School here but you need to look into it.

Marxist crap-ism: "...analyzing the changing modalities of social reality"

Translation: "...analyzing how well we've brainwashed America so far and how can we do it better".

Antonio Gramsci (here's a bio by a fan of his) was a 1920's Italian communist. The shorthand version of his theory was that because the unenlightened masses of the West actually liked being free of Marxism, they gave their consent to being oppressed by their own governments. Since it would be unlikely that there would be a "Workers of the world unite!" violent communist revolution in the west, what they needed to do was to marginalize and destabilize the institutions that hold together a stable society, i.e., change the culture in a gradual manner - and then they could take over and save you from yourselves.

So far, they get an A for achievement. Since the '60's, we get an F for being asleep at the wheel.

When somebody tells you the Marxists have a decades long plan to infest and destroy this country like the termites they are, and remake it into their vision of Marxist feudalism, it isn't the ravings of some closet, tinfoil hat wearing conspiracy nutjob waiting for the black helicopters, it's right there on the Marxist's own websites for anybody that bothers to look and these people are crawling all over the place like cockroaches.

We once mentioned to Mr. Horowitz that we had a standing offer that from the comfort of a computer chair, we could take the name of any state university in the US and in less than 20 minutes find at least 3 published communists on their staff. His reply was "That's a sucker bet."

Notice that this Marxist indoctrination center at Notre Dame started with a "pod-person" from UMass- Amherst, a well known Marxist spawning ground. Remember the big hubbub over Zero speaking at the Notre Dame commencement? What a joke! They're running a Marxist indoctrination center, they invited a Marxist to speak there, and we're supposed to get upset by that? Nothing to see here, move along.

Conservative Crash Dummies

Conservatives remind us of the Crash Dummies. Seems like we're always crashing from one Marxist organized crisis to another. Y'know why? Because it's not in our nature to spend our lives trying to manipulate and control other people's lives so we forget that manipulation and control is Job One of Marxists.

Time after time, whether it's immigration "reform" or now it's healthcare "reform", you have to ask yourself, "Would this endless parade of manufactured crises have happened in the '50's?" Oh, no! Another Lefty crisis! Oh, no! Quick, raise $5m and run some commercials on TV! 

Wouldn't it be better to get it into the American consciousness what Marxism is and why it's bad so that these things never see the light of a legislative day in the first place?

Conservatives need to stop thinking short-term 30 sec commercials for 2 weeks every 4 years or every time we're staring at another impact test-wall and start thinking about a long-term, daily presence.

Conservatives don't have a problem with their message, they have a problem *distributing* their message.

The Right is great at complaining, they’re great at holding Mutual Admiration Society meetings, and they’re great at losing communications wars. It remains to be seen if they’re great at figuring out what the Left is doing so successfully and then putting their money where their mouths are. What the Left is doing so successfully is producing propaganda and then making sure it gets distributed.

Content production without distribution is a waste - another lesson the Right has yet to learn. We heard one guy bragging about how he blew $2 million dollars on a documentary that maybe 20,000 people saw with another 10 of those in works that are guaranteed to get a similarly tiny audience. Another guy was bragging about how he blew $5 million on anti-Zero ads just before the election. The Right brags about how in 5 years they managed to sell 500,000 conservative content dvd’s. Yeah, a 100,000 dvd's a year is great, compared to what? Glenn Beck hits 20 times that many people EVERY SINGLE DAY. This is nothing short of pathetic.

Communications is a numbers game. The more people see/hear it, and the more often they see/hear it, the better it works. So...let’s waste millions of dollars on stuff nobody sees, or only sees for 2 weeks every 4 years. What is wrong with this picture?

With a small portion of the money wasted on anti-Zero TV ads in the last election, which were too little, too late, here today, gone tomorrow, conservatives could have had a 24/7 satellite TV channel that could have aired what little film and TV content we have. We could have had several hours a week of advanced, conservative public radio content for the next several years that would have reached hundreds of thousands of listeners every week. We could have made an attempt to become the media instead of whining like some snot- nosed Liberal about the opposition’s media. We could have started doing what the Marxist Left has been doing all along. But nooooooooo, we’d rather work ourselves into a crisis-mode frenzy and waste tons of money (feeding the very media that is trying to kill us) on a few commercials that run at 3am for 2 weeks every four years that nobody will remember except the people who paid for them.

We’re not getting our butts kicked with AK-47’s and RPG’s, we’re getting our butts kicked with well produced and well distributed Leftwing propaganda. Instead of breaking out their checkbooks and doing something about it, the Right would rather assume the mantle of Leftwing whiner victimhood.

We keep hearing "We’ve got to get back to the grassroots!" Well, when you go into a community full of people that have already been brainwashed by the Left’s media machine, exactly who the hell is going to show up at the grassroots meeting? The Left is out on Main Street every day passing out their commie handbills (public broadcasting) while the Right is holding a meeting in the basement of an industrial building on the outskirts of town and they didn’t bother to tell anybody where and when it was going to happen (the Internet).

"If a policy paper falls in a think-tank and nobody is there to see it, does it make a sound?"

The Internet will save us - NOT

Everybody spends all day on the Internet, don't they?

Proper news/talk radio is relatively expensive to do and TV/film is a lot more expensive than that. Since RIGHTALK shut down its Internet radio operations, what passes for Internet radio on the Right these days is almost always amateur-hour, lame-o podcast, conference-call-on-the-Internet, me-and-my-friends-listen-to-each-other, alleged-talk-radio. The Mormon Tabernacle Choir has more members than most Internet radio shows have listeners and that’s the problem.

The Right is preaching to the choir and talking to itself. Just like most blogs. Despite all of the enthusiasm with the blogs and the wannabe Internet radio shows, the only thing that matters at this point is influencing large numbers of the public in a hurry. The few supposedly right-leaning websites that are the biggest are usually just RINO repositories and they're subject to deliberate attempts by Marxist trolls who raise the "noise level" and diffuse and misdirect.

Assuming the general public are Internet news junkies like the conservative establishment tells their donors they are, and that the public is going to come home after a hard day at real work like plumbing or construction and spend hours scouring the Internet for obscure conservative web content is a colossal mistake. America still lives in TVLand and RadioLand, not InternetLand and if the first media you’re trying to reach them with is more complicated than an on/off switch, a volume control, and a channel changer, forget it.

Speaking of pathetic and the Internet, conservatives would be hard pressed to come up with a bigger "new-media" draw than Ann Coulter televised Live From CPAC! on the Internet right? Yeah well, that drew a grand total of 3700 viewers. That’s the equivalent of one good-sized highschool out of the entire United States. How much more evidence does the Right need before it dawns on them that the Internet alone is not going to save the day? Enough already with the frigging Internet-think-tanking-blog-web-wanking until the Right has at least, the same non-commercial Radio and TV distribution comparable to the Left and then eventually an additional broadcast channel like Fox.

The Left is *much* smarter than the Right when it comes to messaging and message distribution. They understood that you have to get your distribution in place FIRST, then worry about the content. They understood that you need traditional media to feed people to your website – not the other way around – not wasting money on websites that nobody will ever know are there. The establishment Right relies on the Internet because it’s cheap. It’s also ineffective when you don’t have traditional media to run up espirit de corps and drive people to your Internet efforts. This website, like the rest of them, represents one atomic particle of Internet in an entire galaxy of Internet. It's a minor miracle that you're reading it. If Glenn Beck mentioned it on his show, the server would crash under the load in seconds. See what we mean? TV/Radio FIRST, Internet second.

Ever heard of these guys? This is a good example of how hard it is to herd the cats of the Right and what happens when the Internet is all you have and you don't get a lot of major media exposure. The Left has moron.org which among other things, does time-sensitive, targeted email fundraising like:

"Dear Useful Idiot,

Congress will be voting on H.R. 1234 on Friday. This fascist bill introduced by the evil capitalist reactionary imperialist corporate lackey running dog Republicans will allow Big Business to throw old ladies into the street, starve children, discriminate against [fill in the list of oppressed minorities], and stomp cute little kittens to death right in your district! We need the vote of your Congressman, Wishywashy Clueless, to save those kittens, restore democracy, and promote social justice! Without the funds to pressure your Congressman, those kittens will surely die, so please make your check for $50 payable to moron.org today!"

You get the drift. They raise $100m a year that way outside of what they get from Soros. The Right needs to be able to raise a lot of money using the same technology the Left uses and they could do it without threatening to stomp cute little kittens to death. That's what those guys are trying to do; set up the web technology to raise the kind of money moron.org does for the Right. It's a good idea, a good use for the Internet, and should have been done a long time ago. Does the general public even know they exist? How many major media interviews have their people gotten?

moron.org got their startup capital from Soros but so far, we haven't got anybody comparable on our side to get those guys going. Without any major media exposure and with too many of the "conservative leaders" and "activist organizations" seemingly only looking out for #1, how long will it take?

The Internet is a great secondary resource. We can't afford to keep making it the primary resource.

The Mercenaries

DC villagers going after heretics

Another problem we have is that there are entrenched legions of people making a living off being a “conservative activist” with little or nothing to show for it. And if they didn't have a website, you wouldn't know they exist. Everybody and his brother are hitting you up for $50 donations and you've probably sent a few of those checks out. Since the major media is what influences the most amount of people, how many of those organizations begging for money get any media coverage? It's fine that they may do research and email you when it's time to call your rep but that's only half of what needs to be done. TV and radio are force-multipliers.

In the following discussion, bear in mind that we're not talking about everybody in DC here; there are a number of "Good Guys" doing great work that deserves and needs to be supported. Having said that...

We can't tell you how many times we've encountered conservatives or Republicans who have some great idea about promoting a cause and in an instant, the next thing they're worrying about is how they can make a buck off it. Reminds you of politicians doesn't it? In the old days, a politician temporarily left his regular career to go perform some public service then they went back home. Today, they go to DC to "represent the folks back home" but wind up becoming career politicians and it seems a lot of them are more concerned with making a buck than doing what they went there for in the first place. Reminds us of a lot of some conservative "activists."

The ideal politicians of old who already made their money and didn't have to use their office to get rich, made a personal sacrifice in time and effort. They didn't "need the money." Pick an organization. Look up their IRS form 990 to see who is getting paid what. Do an analysis of what other organizations were founded by the same guys or operate under the same umbrella organization. Notice that the heads of those organizations draw a salary from sometimes half a dozen or more of them, totaling in the hundreds of thousands.

We understand that living in and around DC isn't cheap and not everybody starts out as a "gentleman of leisure" so they can afford to just play activist for fun. On the other hand, our guess is that very few of them put up very much of their own money for anything. Drawing a $400,000 salary aggregated from 8 different organizations with the same street address is a little disingenuous, isn't it? If what they're doing is really that valuable, why obfuscate it?

The revolutionary new approach of the Right in the aftermath of the installation of a Marxist pResident seems to be "Let's put up some more websites that nobody will know exist but make sure that PAYPAL button is right in your face just in case!"

There’s a website out there claiming to be fighting the Fairness Doctrine to help "keep Rush on the air" with a prominent "Contribute" button on it. Maybe we just fell of the turnip truck but we think Rush and his $440 million dollars can take care of himself just fine without this website suckering the unwitting of the Right out of $20 donations just so these guys can keep their fat butts in donuts. Way to go guys, our check is in the mail. NOT. By the way, if you do a little digging to find out who's behind this, you would be shocked as well as ticked off.

If you were to start the “Mom & Apple Pie Research and Education Foundation” to allegedly promote conservative values and went to 20 conservative funders and got $20,000 from each of them, what would your total responsibility for results be? Answer: $20,000 or less. Nobody expects you to be able to change the world with $20,000 and your responsibility for results is limited to the maximum amount you got from a single donor.

On the other hand, if you went to one or two donors and said

“I need another $400,000 this year”

they’d ask you,

“What did you do with the $400,000 we gave you last year?”

and you answered

“I wrote a few columns that nobody read on a website that nobody knows is there”

they’d tell you to get lost.

That’s the difference between the Left and Right. The Left has a small number of large funders who aggregate and direct their money to outfits that produce results. The Right has a larger number of relatively small funders which allows for *a lot* of bodies with an entitlement attitude. We've seen it, first-hand. How about 3 guys sucking up $300k+/yr salaries who write a dime-a-dozen  email column that maybe 150 people read. Think that's a good use of $1m worth of $50 checks? Looks like 600 lbs of FAT to us. And what possible justification could there be for this? "I'm a righteous conservative and I've been talking to myself for 20 years. I deserve to make $325k a year for that." Sigh.

You could fire 50% of the “conservative activists” in and around DC sucking up $75k-$400k/yr salaries and nobody would notice or care. Except the ones who got fired of course.

“Let’s send out some more fundraising letters and emails so we can continue to make a good living sending out more fundraising letters and emails.”

By the way, if you mention this scenario in conservative or Republican establishment circles, you might as well be calling the Pope a child molester in the middle of the Vatican. On Sunday. At a public mass. Be prepared for the DC villagers to come after you with torches and pitchforks like a scene from an old horror movie.

And what about the other 50% of the conservative organizations that are doing great work that deserves and needs to be supported? In the absence of major media exposure, the work they're doing isn't as effective as it could be. Sigh.

What can we do about all of this?

Let's see...

1. We could start our own TV and Radio Networks like Fox did or buy CBS. Hmmmm that would take billions of dollars. We don't know any billionaires, do you? Ok, scratch that.

2. We could buy MSDNC or CNN, fire 85% of their talent and producers and start from scratch.

   

   Hmmmm. That would cost billions too and we don't think we want Keith or Christianne stalking us. Scratch that one too.

3. We could try and buy the New York Times, but even if we could wrest it away from Pinch and the bankster stockholders for the billions they'd want, we'd still have to fire 75% of the people that work there and their reputation is so damaged as it is, and we'd have to take the [gag] Boston Globe with it... Are you sure we want to get near something that stinks on ice like this?

   

   Yeah, scratch buying the NYT.

Hmmmmmm. If only there was a satellite network we could put our stuff up on that would make it available to a whole bunch of stations without it costing billions of dollars, then we could work on getting individual stations to carry our programs. Maybe some people could watch the video stuff right off the satellite. There might be a few radio stations that would actually want to carry our programs. Maybe the people that watch the stuff right off satellite could record it and get friends who have cable to run it on cable-access channels.

Damn! If only there was.....

HEY WAIT A MINUTE, WE'VE GOT AN IDEA, WHAT IF WE PUT OUR STUFF UP ON PUBLIC BROADCASTING AND DISH AND DIRECTV JUST LIKE THE LEFT DOES!!!???

"You idiot! Did you drag me to the bottom of this endless site to suggest that we have something to do with those PBS/NPR maggots? I HATE THOSE PEOPLE! And besides, nobody listens to that crap, it's boring! We oughta pull the taxpayers money out from under them tomorrow and watch their sorry, commie asses go right down the drain. Have you lost your mind?"

The Excuses To Do Nothing

This is where we really start getting really irritated. Sorry if our expectations for self-described conservative Republican leaders and activists  are a step higher than if we were calling Walmart to find out how late they were open. For over a year, we tried to convince the conservative/Republican establishment types that expanding our messaging base using non-commercial broadcasting needed to be done and was the only reasonable alternative we had available to us. Usually, we'd run into some blender-head child they hired to answer the phone and we'd get "Brawndo's got what plants crave!"

If, after weeks of trying, we actually got past the idiot children, we'd get one of the excuses to do nothing listed below. That is, assuming they were on the phone long enough to put their brains in gear and come up with an excuse. A small number of people would actually listen. The number of people that actually get it, knew it had to be done, and would do so much as lift a finger, make a call, offer a suggestion, or forward our stuff on, you could count on one hand. We would have had better luck selling Electrolux vacuum cleaners door-to-door. Most of them seemed to view any idea except theirs as a threat to their funding.

We'd really enjoy reeling off the names of the shallow, vapid, insulting, lying, and otherwise useless people we spoke to - as well as the sharp, thoughtful folks that actually recognized a problem and a potential solution and offered what help they could. We haven't identified them before and we won't. We do have a long memory though.

Hey, y'know who most of these people remind us of..............? POLITICIANS!!!

Question: Would anybody put up with this kind of abuse for an entire year if they didn't really believe what they were saying?

Here's the list of the usual EXCUSES TO DO NOTHING.

1. "Nobody listens to that crap! It's boring!"

   First of all, it's a circular argument. Second, it's willfully ignorant. There are 2.3 million Republicans listening to news/talk format public radio every week, an audience bigger than Don Imus' audience, and these are the most educated, affluent radio listeners in any radio market segment. If you want to talk to somebody about some issue that doesn't lend itself to 2 minutes like tax reform, wouldn’t you want to talk to a Lexus-driving small business owner with a degree and a stock portfolio?

2. "Hey, we've got Rush, Hannity, Savage, what's the problem?"

   Let's assume for the sake of argument that Rush is General Patton and the rest are his Allies. The Left controls/dominates:

   1. Film

   2. Commercial Television

   3. Public radio

   4. Public television

   5. Newspapers/magazines

   6. Internet

   7. Primary/secondary education

   Even Patton would have a hard time with 7:1 odds. If relying solely on Rush and company were enough to save the day, why do we have a Marxist pResident? Think a little “surge” might be in order?

3. "But...but...I just don't see a profit in this!"

   When somebody is TRYING TO KILL YOU, you don't ask how much bullets cost, you pony up whatever it takes and you start shooting back. The Left is waging Total War, the Right won’t do anything unless they can figure out how to make a profit off of their own demise. It doesn’t take a rocket scientist to figure out who is going to win that one. While these guys claim to be “conservatives” they’re just mercenaries.

4. “We should just de-fund public broadcasting!”

   Well, that is not going to happen so fuggedaboudit. Ask Tom Delay about that. Conservatives and Republicans need to GROW UP and stop their little temper tantrums about public broadcasting. It's not going anywhere, deal with it. Tax money only amounts to 15% of their budget anyway and they wouldn’t even miss a beat if they lost it. Furthermore, this argument is simply another excuse to do nothing. Tax money helped create this monster. We should not just abandon it to the Left, we should infiltrate and subvert it with our own programming. Besides, the 15% of their budget is a small price to pay to get into an additional national broadcast system and it’s the only place where the right can get the most bang for their limited bucks. If you paid for 15% of a shiny, new Corvette, wouldn’t you also want to come up with the gas money to drive it around a little? Huh?

5. "Yeah, yeah, that's a great idea, let me know how it works out."

   This is a nice way of saying “Stay the <expletive deleted> away from my donors.”

There are no political or technical barriers to conservatives producing programming for public radio and TV and making that programming available to those stations that would carry it using the same distribution technology that PBS/NPR uses. The only legitimate hurdle is getting individual stations to carry it.

Let's repeat that again so nobody can accuse us of drinking our own Koolaid. The only legitimate hurdle is getting individual stations to carry our programming. Let's talk about that for a minute.

1. We were indirectly contacted by the chancellor of a major Texas university system about how unhappy they were with their college radio station running Lefty programming. Come to find out, they were unhappy with NPR programming. If that guy had heard what Goodman is pumping into college stations around the country his face would have turned red, his eyes would have bulged out of his head, and he would have dropped dead of a heart attack.

2. We got an email from a retired Air Force guy in central Florida who was positively foaming at the mouth at something he heard on Amy's show and he told us how he called the station manager gritting his teeth while he complained about it. The woman on the other end of the phone was very pleasant and said "Y'know, even we cringe at some of the stuff we hear in that program but there's nothing out there that we can afford to replace it with."

3. This is important so listen up. We got a call from a small station in the Berkshires of the People's Democratic Republic of Taxxachusetts. He had a problem. He wasn't a liberal even though the station was packed with them. They had run out the period of 1 year where they could air Amy's KGB Broadcasting Network for free and were going to have to start paying her $250 a year to keep airing it. The KGB Broadcasting Network gives their stuff away for an entire year before they ask for a paltry $250 a year to keep airing it. Now, you wouldn't think that $250 would be a lot of money to a radio station but remember, this is a small, non-commercial station and it is a lot of money to them. If we could have given him a daily, 1 hour program cheaper than $250 a year, he would have taken it, even if it was conservative programming. Since we had stopped production by that time, y'know what he was going to wind up doing? He was going to wind up paying Pacifica the $250 which includes Amy, and then the station would have access to the rest of Pacifica's lineup which is flaming WORSE!

Just shoot us now and get it over with.

The Left has a mountainous ammo dump of propaganda and they're giving it away to any idiot who will pick it up and use it against us. We on the other hand, are trying to SELL dvd's on a website nobody has ever heard of.

Let's see, free and readily available vs. $20 and almost impossible to find.

Face--->Palm

There ARE individual stations that would take conservative programming IF we could provide it to them. Naturally, we wouldn't expect our stuff to show up on WBUR in Boston any time soon. In fact, assuming there was sufficient pressure from the conservative public, some of the stations would probably start by airing our stuff on weekends at 3 o'clock in the morning. Isn't that still better than NOTHING?

Every year the Corporation for Public Broadcasting has to report to Congress on the complaints it gets from viewers and listeners. The ONLY complaints they get are from conservatives or Republicans complaining about their liberal tilt. If they had even ONE program that wasn't the usual touchy-feely Marxist crap, wouldn't they be able to at least try and claim they're "balanced" just like the law requires public broadcasting to be?

The real question is whether we could enlist conservatives to mount a letter and phone campaign to pressure public broadcasting stations to balance their lineup. That would mean YOU. Would YOU be willing to make a few phone calls and write a letter to one of your local stations urging them to carry our programming?

When it comes to DISH and DIRECTV, Congress mandated that they set aside 15% of their satellite space for non- commercial public broadcasting purposes and unless we've already allowed the Left to consume all of that already, we ought to be able to get channels there. Instead of selling 100,000 dvd's a year, we could expose that video to 100,000 people A WEEK. Maybe more.

So here we are with America’s heritage being squandered at an exponentially increasing rate and the Right is still talking to themselves instead of the public and making excuses for it.

When whatever you’re doing repeatedly isn’t working, do something different. If you want to be successful, look at what successful people are doing and do *that*. Instead of REacting to Leftist threats to commercial talk radio, we ought to be PRO-acting by poking them in the eye with our own public broadcasting programming. Hold them to their own standard for a change.

With few exceptions, the Right establishment doesn’t understand the value of communications and furthermore, they don’t seem to want to understand. They’re perfectly happy doing exactly what they’ve been doing all along. In 3 months we could have professionally produced, conservative programming on public radio. All it takes is commitment to make it happen. Non-commercial TV would take a little longer and more money but we can make that happen too. Instead, all we've heard is every willfully ignorant excuse there is; assuming somebody bothered to answer the telephone and devote 30 seconds to the primary reason we're losing - and most of the time they couldn't be bothered.

One would think that a Marxist pResident would have led to an epiphany that doing the same thing over and over again wasn’t enough. Apparently not. The Left is laughing all the way to the USSA and the Right is sending out the same fundraising letters they were sending out 30 years ago.

It's time to quit whining about being “disenfranchised” from the opposition's media and start creating our own.

We’ve heard from a bunch of people that *know* that the Right needs to expand its message into public broadcasting, the sticking point is where is the money to do it. We've had doors summarily slammed our faces for over a year. And that’s only counting the people that actually bothered to answer the door in the first place. Nobody is in charge and unlike the lemmings of the Left, organizing the Right is like herding cats. Individual pet peeves are more important than the overall goal and nobody wants to rock the boat.

With public broadcasting and public radio in particular, you have an opportunity to provide those stations willing to take it (they’re out there, we’ve heard from them) an alternative to Amy and her Pacifica/KGB Broadcasting Network. You have an opportunity to get the most amount of listeners for the least amount of money. The Right would have an additional opportunity to talk to the public instead of continuing to talk to themselves.

Unfortunately, we haven’t been able to get this concept in front of anybody with the money to make this happen and the people who *do* have the money to make it happen have a phalanx of existing “conservative” non-profit organization guards around them that makes Fort Knox look like a brand new Caddie parked at night on a deserted street in Newark, NJ.

So let’s keep whining to ourselves about media bias in the opposition’s wholly owned and operated sandbox.

In the vacuum of conservative messaging, nobody can hear you scream.

What Are You Prepared To Do?

"Don't just sit there measuring me for a straight-jacket, do something!
Get on the phone! Call for help!

Don't wait for anybody in DC to do anything about expanding our message base, you'll die of old age first. It's a dirty job but somebody's gotta do it and if nobody else is going to do it, we're going to have to do it ourselves.

That means the American People. YOU. The question is,

"What are you prepared to do?"

This is THE GOAL:

Set up the infrastructure to acquire and produce conservative radio and television programming and then make it available to non- commercial broadcasting stations as well as DISH and DirecTV - just like the Left does.

By the way, if you have already read this site, you may have come to the conclusion that the author is "colorful" :) "Colorful" doesn't mean "lunatic." When we talk about conservative programming, we're not talking about flake-mercenaries like Alex Jones who parrot the Marxist propaganda they were fed under the guise of patriotism. We're not talking about retarded 9/11 conspiracy theories. Nor are we talking about "he said/she said" chitchat babble.

To see what kind of programming we're talking about and what we've produced in the past, click here.

This is how we propose doing it:

1. We ask for public comments about whether this is worth doing. If everybody thinks this is a dumb idea, we'll just fade away but it won't be because we didn't try.

2. If we get a positive response, we'll set up a non-profit and ask for donations.

3. We'll set a goal for X number of dollars to be raised within a certain amount of time.

4. We'll limit ourselves to small donations so we remember who we're working for and why we started doing this in the first place.

5. We'll post the amount of money raised so you can see what it's up to and set up a mailing list to keep you advised on what's happening. By the way, we think spamsters should be shot on sight, so don't worry about that.

6. If we don't get enough money to do what needs to be done within the time limit, we'll cut a check to the Wounded Warrior project or some other apolitical military veteran charity so you know that your money isn't getting spent on cocktail parties and fancy monkey suits.

7. If we have to cut the check to the charity, we'll post a copy of the check right here.

What are YOU prepared to do? We'll tell you what we were prepared to do. We ran RIGHTALK radio for 4 years on the Internet out of our own pockets. Not some donor's money, not some foundation's money, OUR money. Over a million dollars of it.

We did real radio on the Internet. We put on the same "A" list guests that you see on FNC every day only we put them on for the whole hour, not just one, 6 minute segment. Up to and including USSC Justice Clarence Thomas.

We never made a dime off of it and neither did our show hosts because they put up THEIR money.

We did it because we love our country and wanted to do what we could to help. We could have done nothing but instead, we put our money where our mouths are. We already have most of the the radio production side of things that we designed and paid for out of our own pockets so we have a personal stake in this - we're not just begging for somebody else to put us in a Mercedes.

So now we're asking you - what are YOU prepared to do?

Here's what we need to know:

1. Do you believe like we do that conservatives need to get our message out any way we can, and that as we've shown, the only place to do that is in non- commercial public broadcasting, just like the Left does?

2. Would you be willing to tell your conservative friends and associates that they need to look over this website and forward this link to your email list?

3. Would you, if we were to ask for it, support this cause with a $10, 20, or $50 donation(s)?

4. Do you think anybody else would help support it?

5. Assuming we got to the point of producing programming, would you and your friends be willing to call and write your local station asking them to carry it?

6. Would you be willing to help out with advertising the idea and programs however you could?

If so, please send an email to and don't delay because this is a limited time offer :)

Remember, we think spamsters should be shot on sight, so don't worry about that.

Please send a link to this site: http://www.rightalk.com out to as many people as you think should know about it so we can get their input too. Do you have the ear of a radio or TV person that might be willing to help publicize this? Please tell them they need to see this site.
