Daily Show: fear propaganda targets USA
Ever since the airline terror plots were foiled, the media has been spoon feeding the public special reports of fear, anxiety and suspicion. NOWHERE IS SAFE, NOBODY IS SAFE AND EVERYTHING IS A POTENTIAL WEAPON.
If terrorists need to find a new target, learn how to build a bomb or even breech the United States borders, all they need to do is…turn on CNN, sit back, and watch and learn.
Thankfully, we have The Daily Show to string together a montage of CNN’s finest 'Terror: Target USA' to prove just what a theatre of the absurd their newscasts have become as of late.
