Guest guest Posted November 23, 2002 Report Share Posted November 23, 2002 How Corporations, Government and Their Media Deceive, and Hurt, You - Public relations is the art of manipulating the public's emotions and mind, and no one does it better than the existing medical establishment. http://www.mercola.com/ Frank, you probably posted a link for this piece back when it first appeared on Mercola's website, but it's so important, I wanted to make sure that as many people as possible get a chance to read it. The link to it is in the righthand column as you scroll down the page. Even though the article concentrates on medical and scientific propaganda, the same basic techniques are used to sell everything in America, including politicians and the media itself. I have a background in science (engineering degree). I also have a chronic medical problem (CFIDS since spring of 1974). I am familiar with the corporate junk science that gets passed off as real science by the very people who label real science as junk science if it interferes with their profits in any way. If I had done lab reports in college like these corporate " scientists " do research, I never would have graduated. Wouldn't have deserved to graduate. I highly recommend this piece. If one is familiar with the techniques of propaganda, it gives one resistence to being taken in by the propaganda. You recognize the tactics, and you automatically go to alert statis: Warning! Warning! Propaganda. Do not swallow. Repeat. Do not swallow. Victoria Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
