Are You Called to be a Leader that Speaks Truth, Exposes Lies? Are You ...

When They Talk Too Much, They are Told to Change Their View

Oprah, Glenn Beck, Tom Joyner as well as many other talk show hosts in broadcasting and elsewhere in the media may initially have a great opinion about something--you know the kind of information that makes people think for a change, but then later on, as you follow the person more, you find out they have flip-flopped.

Changing one's view is okay in media just so long as the evidence backs up your new enlightened knowledge, so to speak.  But the truth of the matter is the big mouth is warned or even threatened to say whatever he better say and believe it while convincing others he believes it, just so long as he or she doesn't bring the public back to what was said last week, last month or last year. 

Many of these news organizations are given information from elite groups.  The so-called major news events do nothing more than distract reporters from what their critical thinking skills are telling them in the first place.  Rather than act on them, they allow themselves to be persuaded by owners so as to keep their jobs and name recognition. (And you thought that mainstream, award-winning journalists were unbiased and trustworthy--they are just good workers that do what they are told very well.) 

Consider this, you or I sit in front of television cameras or a radio station's microphone sharing what our gut instinct tells us along with some reports and interviews that are valid, indisputable, and definitely will get the public off their feet.  The public is buzzing after hearing this eye-opening information and all appears to be going well--people are thinking, questioning, researching, protesting, and even holding back their monies from certain businesses and groups that have lied to them.  But Uh oh!  Someone feels it is time to change the flow of things because an individual/business/group is being negatively affected by the protesting.  So what does the threatened do?  Give us some "breaking news" in a form of a press release, confidential file, email, audio recording, text, video, etc. in the hopes of changing our minds which will ultimately present a different angle to the initial impactful story.  "That should hold them for awhile."  says the threatened professional.

So when these unfortunate events take place in our media that draw huge crowds/readership/money, keep in mind that the reports following will be littered with distractions to keep you from finding out the truth.  Some big mouth radio hosts and others will even go so far to say something the conspiracy theorists would like to hear just to draw him or her into their programming, because they know that truth seekers are skeptical anyway.  Many researchers end up falling down the rabbit hole never coming up for air or truly helping anyone with their findings only further confusing them.  The public falls for the conspiracy angle in a news story every time!  Elitists know you are looking for the story beyond the story so they are going to give you something to chew--partial truth possibly or some wild distraction that will keep you angry, crying or laughing--black talk show hosts are good for that one. 

Lastly, know that those mouthpieces in broadcasting who do the following:  talk too much, bring out unsettling information, act like they are sincerely interested in finding out the truth and care about The People, etc. will change their view whenever they are told to by their owners.  Therefore, it is better not to follow these mainstream puppets too closely or you just might be one of the unenlightened ones used and abused in the end.
