In a move consistent with the overall suppression of free speech, the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences revealed plans to require a review from either The New York Times or the Los Angeles Times for documentaries to qualify for Oscar consideration (as reported today).http://www.blogger.com/img/blank.gif
While it's public knowledge that only five companies control virtually all the mass media in the United States, it's less understood that these five companies, along with most of the 43,000 transnational corporations on this planet, are controlled by a few banks and holding companies that report to a handful of families and financiers (see recent study by the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology in Zurich).
In recent years, popular documentaries, such as "Inside Job" and "Capitahttp://www.blogger.com/img/blank.giflism: A Love Story," have revealed the means by which the private corporate banking pyramid that controls the central banks and once-sovereign currencies of the majority of nations leverages its control over the money creation process to profit from war, disease, and ignorance, and steal the assets produced by the 99%.
By this proposed action, Hollywood shows itself, once again, to be a propaganda tool of the banks.
Oh, and did we mention that it was reported today that The New York Times was giving a $15 million golden parachute to its failed outgoing CEO Janet Robinson, while it was simultaneously freezing pensions and scaling back health savings plans (to the tune of $9 million) for foreign correspondents and staff working overseas? This was news deemed "not fit to print" in "the newspaper of record for the 1%."
