""Every word from the "mainstream media" is carefully crafted to promote their political agenda."'

Glad you picked up on that one, pdq, I was hopeful that someone would:) Of course many in the mainstream media are biased, and easily led. Or at least their bosses or "organ" owners are.

And, a related question, who (from what political agenda and nations) controls much of the mainstream media?

OK, a puzzling question:

Why would people on this site, who are likely at a minimum, of moderate awareness and should know the difference (a simple GOOGLE can assist), promote such "fabricated bunk" - fed to them by the biased mainstream media to promote a cause? What purpose does it serve for the "garden variety" folk music lover?
