if by blind you mean: sightless or having less than 1/10 of normal vision then
the above statement is faulty and there is no reason one cannot sit as close to
the TV as s/he wishes without any consequences. however, if by blind you mean:
unable or unwilling to discern or judge, the ability to know the facts and take
action accordingly, unable to see the propaganda and controlling elements
embedded in the messages, or lacking a directing or controlling consciousness,
then, the statement is absolutely true.
The corporate media has a strangle hold on our society. We know only what they want us to know because corporations own the media and grease the palms that flip the "on air" switches and edit the daily articles. instead of learning about what is really going on in our country and investigating the obvious lies that are dished out daily our reporters and journalist are out following celebs as if we are more interested in who's on drugs and who's having a new baby than the issues facing our lives, the health of our families, and the protection of our rights. The real news that America should be able to see never makes the air. More than 95% of the media is controlled by one group of people. With this much control over an extremely influential tool with a reach that, Rupert Murdoch says, is unmatched around the world it makes it so easy to make anyone look like an enemy or a terrorist. "We’re reaching people from the moment they wake up until they fall asleep" Murdoch says. It’s even easier to control head figures because of the ability to make someone look so bad to so many people in a short period of time. The media can even make protesters crying out for help seem like the antagonist. An example of this can be seen in the video corporate media vs. camcorders.
The reason the corporate media is on my list of denominators is because like the other denominators it promotes conflict and confusion in our society by way of deception and mind control. It has the ability to bring to life the chosen reality of its controller(s). There is no escaping its power because even if you seek truth they are always ready to throw misinformed curve balls in the game, and those who attempt to question the situation are frowned on as conspiracy theorist. This is simply a person who is willing to investigate and believe that the given cause for a particular situation may not be exactly true. How can you look negatively upon a person who checks the facts and has a difference in opinion, and is not naive enough to trust the word of mouth when the facts clearly say something different? Ultimately, all of this lack of information takes its toll on the society because a lot of people’s morals are built on the lies they have been taught to believe in form birth. Sometimes more than others it's not that a person doesn't believe what you are telling them, but the fact that they hope what you are saying isn't true. Think about it if you were 45 years old and you found out that the values and morals you and your family held near and dear are lies based on secrets made up in a private meeting as a part of a scheme to make money how would you feel? You would feel worthless and hope to GOD that somehow, even though the facts line up, this isn't true, and you didn't waste half of your life being deceived. In turn this causes jealousy, hatred, and more deception. So along as we are in tuned with the box we will grow further and further apart unwilling to help each other then we will surely fall.
