"It was strange, but, in this age of swift communication, one had to travel thousands of miles to get a set of straight, simple facts... Propaganda jams the media of communication."
-Richard Wright, The Color Curtain
Can we get facts straight today? As I recall the Presidential Campaign, the Republican/Tea Party and their propaganda machine of smoke, and mirrors, and lies as well as, the hordes of people who did not have to work too hard or travel too far to believe said lies, one wonders how far does one have to travel today to get the so-called simple facts.
Truths!
They are impeded by Propaganda on all four sides.
Millions of miles traveled.
