De Falende Mainstream Media

The Failure of Mainstream Media

Global Research, June 30, 2014


Dear Global Research Readers,
The European Union is in economic crisis while the people of a drastically de-industrialized United States are being held hostage by Wall Street’s greed and quest for monopoly, which is leading America towards a militarized police state.
War clouds are also hanging over the Middle East and a cold war is unfolding between the US on one side and China, Russia, and Iran on the other.
Many important questions and contradicting stories also remain regarding the tragic events of September 11, 2001. The mainstream and corporate media has failed to investigate the implausible official 9/11 narrative of the US federal government. It has failed as the watchdog of the public, leaving the job to alternative and non-corporate information media.
Global Research has worked hard to bring these critical issues to the attention of our valued readers and to the forefront of respectful debate. The destruction of theenvironment, the decline of civil liberties, the erosion of international law, the growing deficit of social justicemedia disinformation, and so many other topics are all regularly focused on by Global Research.
In the face of mainstream media lies, Global Research has remained independent and continues to act as a vital information portal for the public, and we are grateful to all those involved in this process.
Our reader feedback has been an invaluable source of encouragement, motivation, and growth. But we also need reader support and help.
Without the support of our readers, the Global Research websites would not exist in their present forms and we would not be able to offer our valued readers the expanded coverage and services that we presently have. We have been able to develop our activities, including this week’s much-anticipated launch of a newly redesigned website template, thanks to the contribution of Global Research readers.
Global Research does not seek financial support from private and public foundations. This is why we value every single donation and contribution made by our readers.
We encourage you to re-post Global Research articles, cite them in your work, politely talk about them to friends, use them for group discussions, and embed GRTV videos in your webpages.

Dit zegt de nieuwe hoogleraar journalistiek Mark Deuze:

'Feit is dat kranten om een steeds kleiner wordende groep lezers heen dansen. De dans wordt steeds beter; ik vind de huidige journalist agressiever, wantrouwender en professioneler dan twintig jaar geleden. Maar het lukt ze niet daarmee de aandacht vast te houden."'
