marching toward baghdad the occupation of these cities has led to more than half a million people to flee mosul seeking safer areas of the country and although baghdad is currently secure from takeover violence in the city has largely continued unabated with more than sixty people killed just this week and with a new wave of car bombings throughout the capital these developments have actually led many members of the republican party to actually push for airstrikes iraq because of course the people who allowed the current situation to develop as a result of their insanely irresponsible votes for intervention back in two thousand and two definitely have the authority to dictate current military policy so what's happening on the ground is a catastrophe of epic proportions the only way it could become worse is if the u. west decides to get militarily involved in iraq again let's break this up.

they believe very hard to take. that back with that right there. the national youth of america since its inception has been the american dream and theory this long standing ideal means opportunity success and the ability to quote pick yourself up by your bootstraps and work hard so you can get rich and after world war two. new fracturing jobs abounded result in an entire industry of blue

collar work that created a thriving middle class in the one nine hundred fifty s. and beyond the notion of the american dream became typified in an almost cartoonish way a nuclear family living with two point five kids living in the suburbs of the white picket fence drive an s.u.v. around the strip mall encountering only soccer moms the male of course was the sole breadwinner and the woman belonged in the home cooking and cleaning but a couple decades after the mass of white flight away from inner cities this pleasant little scenario started to fall apart women's libber happened and suddenly housewives started wanting to do more with their lives other than to exist as merely partners to their spouse fast forward to the clinton era or massive deregulation of the financial sector pave the way to an economic collapse on a level not seen since the great depression and after nine eleven domestic spending on social services and the investment of bedrock institutions like education was almost entirely abandoned replaced with an endless flow of cash to build up the

military industrial complex and open the national security state millions of americans were foreclosed upon college students were plagued with life debt and the race to the bottom seizures of third world markets continued under neo liberal trade policy exporting once u.s. based jobs to places like china and bangladesh but look the notion of the idealised american dream we've all been talking was never meant to be a dream for everyone and fact is a lifestyle could only be supported at the expense of the have nots within society and guess what people have finally started to wake up to the fact that the american dream is nothing more than an antiquated concept in fact according to a c.n.n. money poll from just this month a ton of people say the dream is dying young adults between eighteen and thirty four mostly agree that it's simply unattainable but sixty three percent of individuals same the dream is downright impossible this is the same demographic struggling in society right now to find jobs make ends meet. and somehow pay their

bills at a time when income inequality is at a record high in fact the level of income inequality measured in each of the us is four hundred thirty five congressional districts is so high america now ranks among the most unequal countries in the world and among the industrialized world income inequality is rising faster here than anywhere else so knowing this is it any wonder why that same poll found that only thirty four percent of parents believe their children will grow up better off than them. maybe it's time we start changing the way a dream lifestyle is even perceived because as long as we put corporate profits and money first before basic staples like health care education and housing the dream remains exactly that a dream america is the only industrialized country in the world without a system of universal health care or an uninsured citizen can still go bankrupt just for getting sick when it comes to housing there's more than five times as many

vacant homes in the us than there are homeless people according to amnesty international but instead of focusing on the social ills our government gives more power and money to corporations who have successfully hijacked our democratic system hell even the most elite academic institutions in the country have recognized that the us embodies an all darkie rather than a representative democracy but as long as our leaders double down on the concept of american exceptionalism to advance its agenda on the rest of the world in the name of humanitarianism we remain blinded they manage tarion crisis unfolding on our own soil because we're busy preaching about why this country is the most exceptional in the world it's easy to overlook its downward spiral. so for anyone still hanging on to that antiquated concept of the american dream remember the words of the late george carlin said the reason they call it the american dream is because you have to be asleep to believe it. i.

descended on brazil this week for the world cup the most anticipated sporting event on the planet but even before the first game hacked off clashes between police and protesters on the streets of sao paolo nations from last year were over one million people took to the streets all across brazil calling out the government's lavish spending in the lead up to the world cup all voicing reforms to public services and although more protests are planned in other brazilian cities but the games officially start of the focus is now turning toward football so to discuss this and the issues behind the sport i'm joined by breaking the separate from animal rubble it's been a long time since you've been on i know it's been a while ago got your credit i picked the right one is that our rep and i want to talk about the protests here but i wanted to also quote a recent speech that president dilma rousseff said she said today there's a systematic campaign against the world cup or rather it's not against the world cup but a systematic campaign against us i mean what is she talking i hear what are some of

these issues that the demonstrators are calling attention to regarding the government she's absolutely right by the way and that's kind of hilarious because she's acknowledging that this isn't an anti world cup demonstration that's happening every day and this is been happening since brazil got there their bid for the world cup there's a protest after protest because not only is are they protesting the rampant corruption within the government of brazil the protesting how much money they've spent on the all these all these lavish expenditures for all these projects all over brazil eleven billion dollars they've spent so far just on on these programs there's you know upwards of seventy percent of the population disagree see the delay with these projects is being very very poorly planned by the brazilian government they're protesting the lack of healthcare like education troubles or transportation so i mean these are problems that you're seeing across brazil just today there were protests in sao paulo we're seeing some of those images now i believe this is the welcome wagon like you said this is the welcome wagon that journalists got. the visitors got not only protesters in brazil and it's happening

all across we're going to look at photos it looks like there are war. thousands of just militarized police forces and then the tanks and all this stuff it's crazy i mean this year is notably different from from years past i mean talk about this new movement called the empty cup right well this is actually growing steam on the internet right now it's called the right and it's on facebook there's a there's a group scout well of almost eighteen thousand likes from what i'm seeing here and they're posting photos of graffiti graffiti that portrays how you know brazil may be living and breathing soccer but you can't eat a soccer ball the government not addressing the grievances of the protesters how much money is being spent to some of the tremendous amount of money that's being spent on all these stadiums a lot of these stadiums that aren't even complete there's a lot of last minute construction work going on right now that you know with six hundred thousand people flooding brazil who knows what the input if the infrastructure could even hold up and the thing another thing to take note is that these are just like one time usage i mean of course you know brazil is a big soccer place but i mean it just seems like they build up these giant and the

structures and then they don't really use and there's all these one one time jobs out there so the fact i don't know where it is i think this is really really crazy i think if you've been following the story the fictions of all kind of the poor in brazil to build this and the structure talk about yeah i mean there have been only been. in the flavella as these little shanty towns that are near the stadiums but there was the case of native indigenous amazonian that were actually victim from their own land in an area that had this very old amerindian museum near rio to make room for area near the near the stadium several dozen of these of these native groups were were evicted and this is just one example of the type of hope or will things that the government is doing just for the sake of this world cup a perfect example i would say is this stadium in my analysis which is three thousand miles away from from rio you can even access it by car it's in the middle of the jungle it's going to be used for four matches. four matches and after that it's not going

to be used again there's not even a local team that could be playing at the stadium again and this was a two hundred seventy million dollar stadium an eyesore in the middle i'm in the middle of the jungle and who knows who that's displacing right and they're calling on the white elephants the stadium is here ready for good reason to talk about the brazilian government's montreaux recreating seven hundred new jobs it's all worth it right and you keep hearing this with kind of any sporting event you heard this with with the winter olympics and you tell you what the last world cup is all these these these new jobs that they're creating and i don't you know for me it's almost the regurgitated i don't care if they're predicting three hundred thousand or nine hundred thousand jobs we need to talk about what these jobs are that are being created are the temporary jobs or the permanent jobs they're definitely not permanent. most of these jobs i think the only sector that's actually going to be benefited is transportation hospitality military and the military the rise of the militarized police i think it's completely disingenuous for the government to continue to say that this is creating all these new. permanent jobs when at the end

of the day at the end of this month this is a really great month for you know unifying the country over football it's a beautiful thing but these jobs are not going to be there forever right yeah i love that argument oh it's great in your job it's like well you're creating jobs anything you can you know the people running the death camps the holocaust so they had a job i mean i was creating jobs that are reason you know just like a stupid argument ironically all these problems with brazil seem to pale in comparison to what's coming up and you are my god i mean the slave labor alone is just unbelievable right so we're looking at a headline right now and this is what they've admitted to right now there's all these according to the labor laws in which really mean there's no protections for the workers there are well over a thousand migrant workers have already died in cuts i mean this is this is awful there's really they're on pace by the time that the actually make it to the world cup around four thousand and so it's what's expected of migrant workers to have died and this is just one aspect of it there's now allegations coming out that cuts are actually. they bought their bed for twenty twenty two i mean there are there

are countries calling fell all over the place over this and in reality why why is cut even to having the world cup they've never qualified for the world cup not to say they don't deserve it for that reason but it's one hundred twenty degrees in the summer. there and gets it and i want to go doesn't modify the weather many just like they did in china and south stated it's the same it's the same story with with anywhere that has these these major sporting events it brings in all this immediate revenue to the economy but it's nothing last seen and at the end of the day hopefully with what's going on in brazil we can actually pay attention to these issues and use the world cup as kind of the you know we're paying attention to brazil let's keep paying attention these issues yeah you know it is it is really amazing it brings together the world it brings together the country but at the same time we should be paying attention all of them kind of behind the scenes thanks for doing just that many rob lowe appreciate you coming back on also the bags. coming up here as we talk about some of the corporate sorry some of the stories the corporate media won't dare touch stay tuned.

to. speak your language. programs or documentaries in arabic it's all here on all t.v. reporting from the world. talks books fifty yard p.

interviews intriguing stories for you to. see in troy arabic to find out more visit arabic all teeth. there's a new i'm a grown prisoner and i've got a polygamist family i'm looking for a woman who understands me anyway and i want her to share my goal of saving our people from extinction of whom. i've had to found marriage and she's had one. wish changed to two to what's been a chemist marriage and have decided to find a man to marry as. the machine we want to know women who could say your kids together with that. your money is to have let's say thirty to forty kids are going to do that with only one wife so it's impossible.

there's a median leave us so we leave that maybe. by the scene pushing through in the play your party there's a goal to push issues that no one is asking with the guests that you deserve answers from it's all politics only on our team. earlier this week the brookings institute released a poll concerning the amount of trust americans have in their television news sources and surprisingly fox news took the top spot twenty five percent say they trust of the station as the most trusted name for their news as a station is consistently both the most and least trusted news source to the extreme polarization of the corporate media giant but far more interesting is that

only five percent of respondents said that. is the most trustworthy news source a score so low that even the daily show with jon stewart a comedy show is considered more trustworthy and on top of these pathetically low numbers all the corporate media is seen in near unprecedented ratings as more and more americans turn to alternative sources to become informed so to discuss the reasons why so many people are tuning out the corporate press as well as the stop the top stories the corporate media is ignoring i was joined there by making huff director of project center going to professor at the album valley college i started by asking making why he included edward snowden and chelsea manning as two of his top centered stories of the past year considering how everyone knows their names. of course the public by now has long heard of chelsea manning edward snowden they hear often historical whistleblower names daniel ellsberg of course comes to mind but the way in which these stories have routinely been covered particularly in the

corporate media is they're covered in terms of personalities and the corporate media was more interested in the bradley chelsea changed the snowden narrative has been hero or a traitor or better yet and b. c. is certainly led the way to the bottom with not only attacking the journalist glenn greenwald who was breaking the students. story but also attacked snowden's character in so far as saying that well not just is it here over a traitor but is it traitor or criminal so that was the frame you couldn't get better than that so there's a lot of the corporate media misses on these important whistleblower stories and it's interesting too because you'll see a corrupt ation by u.s. officials that jump into the mix with their symbiotic relationship of corporate media which is nothing more than a propagandist mouthpiece for the military industrial complex the pentagon the white house and so forth kerry in particular lauded ellsberg at one point

recently as being in a sort of was a blur but again if these people are a historic actors they don't remember that you know over forty years ago ellsberg was demonised nixon had people going after him psychiatry office to demonize him and go after him so what we see really is history repeating itself in many ways in one i would say one significantly different way is that the corporate media back in one thousand nine hundred eighty one the new york times actually was interested in the pentagon papers whereas now the mannings the snowden's we hear a lot of criticism from the state and corporate media saying well these people should go through proper channels well when they try to go through proper channels the corporate media would report these stories and that's why we had julian assange and wiki leaks and that's why we've had glenn greenwald and that were really the guardian now at the interest that we have to create new ways in order for these things to come out like secure drop in the frame of the presentation and so on

because the corporate media is totally failed on these stories and they try to distract us with a classic triumvirate of fallacies and we'll see it written large all over corporate media it's the ad hominum personal attack shoot the messenger the red herring which shifts the topic away from the actual documents the actual leaks and so forth and what they actually say about what our government is doing versus what they claim to be doing and then third it's a strong person they distort an issue and then they. the attack the issue that they're distorting as it is reality making let's talk about the new book soon to be released outlining the top twenty five censored stories from the past year as well as and much much more in that there's an entire chapter dedicated to junk food news and news abuse talk about what you call the corporate media celebrity apology tour this last year one of the one of the biggest problems we saw that the corporate media just couldn't turn their eyes away from in the past we've done things like greed. corporation corporate media they love to look at suffering and celebrity gath and obituaries and that sort of just go on and on and on about some of these

things anniversaries and celebrity death and so on in this case where we see is more like apology porn one celebrity or public official after another saying something incredibly vile you know some bios viewing filth epithets you know races toma phobic remarks and what we see is that the corporate media you know they go down to the they go to the bottom feeder copper razzi and they suck up the you know these lame tidbits of idiocy and they project it written large and in the corporate media as if there's nothing better to cover right like actually issues of real racist institutionalized behavior in the prison systems and so for that we go on and on about the stories they could be covering instead but and there's a long history to this we have bill you know member bill clinton's apology tour mcnamara's apology tour. lately though this year what we're looking at is we took

a look at say some of the key cases we saw. john travolta write the chogm travolta oscars mishap where he mispronounces this woman seems name and then there's a travolta fire online and you know and then there's justin bieber apologizing for his yellow lamborghini joyride by disrupting the neighbors and. then there's miley cyrus apologizing for twerking everywhere and on mary and so forth and we see robin thicke who was the turkey at the beginning. about that for the biggest on to get his wife back and so on it's just and on and on it's like this new cycle watch dirty get dirty element from the celebrity right that's the first step wash rants been recitals repeat and you know before the last sort of lame p.r. hollow apologetic drivel falls from the mouths of these you know inane celebrity

characters you know most recently you know jonah hill on jimmy fallon you know and there's actually a whole series of articles that are recent unpublished about how celebrities can apologize better write how pilot did it and turned it into another lead new lucrative career for racism it's just it's just completely ridiculous that this a gets that kind of attention and be we pretend as if these these are simply one off mishaps yet there's a whole train of these things happening like alec baldwin and so on and then they all come out say well i didn't mean to say that at all i did a great guy service to these communities that otherwise support well if that's the case then you wouldn't be doing this anyway and you certainly wouldn't be giving fodder to the corporate media to go ahead and just keep rehashing this type of not and so this is a relevant players like sarah palin i mean why do we even pay attention to this person maybe we stop paying attention or she'd go away making and of course long historical narratives are omitted even when they're not actual celebrities people are treated like celebrities because bergdahl swap of course the entire storable

narratives omitted but let's talk about another thing that you been really vocal but you've also had a whole chapter in your book coming up about regime change nato u.s. cuba venezuela ukraine i mean you have a whole chapter coming out about ukraine talk about your media analysis on this entire situation it's interesting that the same corporate media that is utterly a historical in other narrative stories they selectively rehashed. old kinds of frames at their convenience and in this case instance of poor area whether it's the rekindled cold war with who had been in russia the idea is to demonize these leaders now look that's not to say that any of the leaders or any of the sacred. hooten or what have you don't have their fair share of problems or or humanitarian . infractions they do lack any real world leaders that we could really mention including in the us but the point is that we pretend like these are caricature or cartoon characters and we in the corporate media work to demonize these people so

that we we can then sort of justify what we have going on meanwhile there is very little coverage done on the making of these regime changes in libya in syria of course we see joe biden son just get right in there totally unabashed and just so over the corruption blatant you know i mean i don't even know how you could ignore. it but don't despair i mean they don't even care we have only two minutes left so i want to quickly move on to this is just hilarious because i was thrown in the crosshairs of the saga a couple months ago you've heard about a new book as well i want to read you a quote from a blog by a tight magazine editor former time magazine editor post at the state department about our reporting he says these are not facts they're not opinions they're false claims and propaganda poses as news it creates real dangers and gives a green light to violence and flam atory as hell here making what's your assessment . well it's not only inflammatory you'll see it's

a steady pattern newsweek recently had a piece on their cover that was about conspiracy theories how they're dangerous of course people love to try out the conspiracy theory label to discredit people it's again part of the ad hominem process attacking shooting the messenger and changing the subject to the person it goes back to hofstetter the paranoid style in american politics and there are real conspiracies there are ways to responsibly study them peter dale scott deep state politics deep of and state crimes against democracy i could write down a laundry list of people that do this kind of scholarship you know mark crispin miller aaron good we do it in project censored you know there's a number of great independent reporters that do serious work but they are again attacked if they sort of go to the sacred cow and if they go and they really try to analyze you know things are happening and if you were thrown into the mix here because of our t.v. it was called into question is being a propagandistic arm of the of the russian state and while we can say any media

outlet is a form of propaganda and we should look at their funders and look at their backers whether it's on the dar whether it's public television and so on and those are real issues but what we should also do is remember the importance of critical thinking in media literacy we should listen to the arguments we should look at transparently sorest facts and we should think independently for ourselves and not come to any logically driven conclusions but rational conclusions again based on evidence and what happened in your case for example was a classic example of how when you suited the purposes of the corporate media in the state you were allotted for criticizing putin on r t but then when you had a chance to go on c.n.n. and stick it to piers morgan if you didn't even seem to get it that you were going to kill him i mean and again i mean you know right christine abortionist in his written books about this stuff you know there have been books and documentaries done about censorship in the us reporters being fired in the u.s. and so on i mean so the hypocrisy is again very very striking but afraid i'm. that the corporate media don't they don't really want to recognize these kind of facts

they want to attack others and it will give attacking and framing doesn't work and citing a content false equivalency false balancing doesn't work then they're going to go back and rely on the junk news problem so all we can hope for i guess in america is that you know if only john travolta would mangle the syrian leader bashar al assad's name while miley cyrus turks on him in the driver's seat of a yellow lamborghini with you know justin bieber you know maybe then people would pay attention to what's going on in parallel we really don't know and project censored we hope that people will simply think independently and critically on their own turn off corporate media which more and more americans are doing every year and really start tuning in to independent media and really start doing independent critical thinking and your look can learn more project censored dot overarching amazing make you director of projects censored incredible to have you on and thanks so much always a pleasure. that's our show you guys join me again tomorrow and i read that all

over again. if. you. trace. it all it is. there which i would. say. some people say that when it happens in the summer in time not a very nice one the curtain falls down. at some point and i could no longer stand it i decided to kill myself. all the even i was scared of what i'd done but i punched but i didn't understand where i didn't want
