The media manufactures our consent and tells us so we can fall in line and be manipulated into how politicians and the government want us to act and behave. Those who follow are rewarded and those who rebel is punished. The media works as propaganda machines to inform the public of agendas and news following their political beliefs of left- or right-wing nature.  

Media have 5 filters. 

Ownership- big cooperation’s part of conglomerates aimed on profit and profit only so its in their interest to guarantee profit 

Advertising- they pay for guaranteed audiences to expose a product and pay the media company for space on their page for PROFIT. They reduce the price a consumer has to pay as the media company gets a secondary income of money. To advertises we as humans are the product 

Complicity- you go along with what the media says even If you don’t support it 

Flack- when a story is inconvenient to the media it claims fake news as it is inconvenient to their agenda  

Common enemy. Communism, immigrants, terrorists (a bogey man to fear) which combines the nation into fear
