That made me wonder...why don't we see the pictures of the dead, their caskets,
etc, like we did when Bush was president.

We used to see their pictures on NBC and other newscasts, and even in the big
papers. Now we see nothing of the sort.

Anyone?

Obama is into media control, why do you think he is so upset with
Assange and Wikileaks? Obama is a narcissistic control freak. Probably
1/2 the reason Hilaryious is moving on.

Politicians are getting on into controling the media and you can see it
plain as day when you cross check with cynical attitude about a
Omaba-UN-France media planted story on a media source that is a leftie
junkie. Take Libya, Ivory Coast, Wikileaks... politicially managed for
your consumption.

If you check the logs on Wikipedia you can even see where edits are to
cleansed out unwanted content.

As Wikileaks so clearly shows, it isn't about informing the herd, nor
the truth, nor about hearing the people -- it is about managing and
txing the herd. We in North America are managed sheeples.
