Despotism by Stealth: The Media Take Over
August 8, 2016
The mainstream media has often been called the fourth branch of the government. News organizations have the responsibility of disseminating information, which is essential to the healthy functioning of the democracy. It also keeps the other branches honest by making sure they are doing the jobs which they were assigned.
The press has never had perfectly balanced coverage. Even in times when reporters had some integrity when reporting world events, some form of bias was reflected in their news coverage. The Bible states that Satan is the “god of this world” (2 Corinthians 4:4), so it’s a given that news reporting would reflect the devil’s influence. What kept the liberal media somewhat in check was the influence of Christian and conservative apologists.
In recent years, the involvement of believers in society has collapsed. It seems to be driven by a feedback loop of negativity. The more ground Christians lose to the enemy, the less motivated the media are to report the truth. Evangelical Christian are the largest demographic in America, yet liberals control every form of media.
The problem I find the most troubling about the current state of news reporting is the ability of the left to completely change reality. The nefarious actions of Hilary Clinton provide endless examples of the dishonest presentation of truth by the media.
When Donald Trump publically called on Vladimir Putin to find Hillary Clinton’s 30,000 missing emails, the press criticized Trump for inviting the Russians to hack our government. The press were so fixated on helping Clinton that they didn’t even realize that Trump’s comment was sarcasm. And if they did, they worked relentlessly to turn what he said into anything but the truth.
There were no emails to find because Clinton’s lawyers had illegally destroyed them. Reporters went after Trump asking if he is a pawn of Putin. If Putin has embarrassing emails that could someday be used against Clinton, the question that should be asked in this: “Is Clinton the one who compromised the nation’s safety?”
The hacking of the Democratic Party emails proved a reality that I reported on months ago. The released emails showed that the entire Democratic race was one big sham. Bernie Sanders didn’t have a chance of winning because the party insiders had already decided to make sure than Hillary would win.
The press now questions if Trump is a serious candidate, while they ignore the fact the Hillary lives in a bubble. It has been 245 days since Hillary Clinton last held this thing called a press conference on December 4, 2015. That was the date that the Democratic nominee last spoke to the embedded press corps that follows her every move.
In any other race the press would eviscerate a candidate who thought it was beneath them to take questions from common reporters. But Clinton gets away with this behavior because the media are totally on her side and will do anything to protect her reckless and criminal behavior.
There have been some changes at Fox News that show the liberal dominance of the news is going from bad to worse. During the Republican convention, long-time head Roger Ailes was forced out by a sex scandal. Fox News has been the only major network that has expressed any fairness to some key conservative issues.
This is the reason why all the other networks have been constantly attacking Fox. Now that Rupert Murdoch’s two liberal sons, James and Lachlan are in control of the network, it won't be long before Fox News is no different than CNN or MSNBC.
Liberals will not be satisfied until they have complete control of the news industry. Darkness can only take over completely if there is a total absence of light. Even the most trivial ember of free thinking needs to be snuffed out.
The liberal media is going to need a total monopoly to deal with the Rapture event. When the Church is called home, the press is going to have a monumental task in explaining what happen to “all those Christians.” Anyone with a basic understanding of Bible prophecy should know that the evil behavior we see exploding throughout the world was forewarned by Jesus Himself.
“In their case the god of this world has blinded the minds of the unbelievers, to keep them from seeing the light of the gospel of the glory of Christ, who is the image of God” (2 Corinthians 4:4).
“Behold, now is the accepted time; behold, now is the day of salvation” (2 Corinthians 6:2).
