While liberal and conservative think tanks clash with their board-room manufactured talking points, Democrat and Republican surrogates begin to spin a narrative that aligns directly with the multi-national corporate directive. Don't believe me? Refer to CNN's parent company Time Warner Cable, an editorial boardroom that drips conflict of interest -- indicated by their top advertisers. Not only is their material picked up by alternative outlets, but the mouth-piece that is CNN echoes across the world.
With CNN's dishonesty just as an example, not excluding the fact that five major multi-national corporations own the bulk of American media, we can assume satanized news unilaterally from all directions. Satanized news.
-- August 20, 2016: "Shocking Government Report Finds $6.5 Trillion In Taxpayer Funds "Unaccounted For""
http://www.zerohedge.com/news/2016-08-19/government-report-finds-65-trillion-taxpayer-funds-unaccounted --
Now this headline simply skipping the news desk can be attributed to the heat of the election. Accounting fraud among the public populous isn't nearly as sexy enough as "pussy-gate" -- which is a pretty solid indication of the public's collective conscience. Yes, the lack of initiative among the media as a whole to disseminate this material was lukewarm -- the material was just so lightly circulated, but by this logic we are ignoring the issue, the sheer ignorance of the media and it's supposed role. This story wasn't spun, it didn't even show on cable news. This story was buried.
--"The Defense Department’s Inspector General, in a June report, said the Army made $2.8 trillion in wrongful adjustments to accounting entries in one quarter alone in 2015, and $6.5 trillion for the year. Yet the Army lacked receipts and invoices to support those numbers or simply made them up."--
At least HSBC as an institution covered-up their involvement in laundering monies for the world's most unsavory characters, DOD insiders don't even have to cook the books to lift TRILLIONS off the balance sheet.
--"The “forced” adjustments rendered the statements useless because “DoD and Army managers could not rely on the data in their accounting systems when making management and resource decisions.”"--
Without the semantics, this is called accounting fraud. Of tax payer dollars. Where are the collective conservatives?
-- "“Where is the money going? Nobody knows,” said Franklin Spinney, a retired military analyst for the Pentagon"--
Nobody fucking knows.
