Media Propaganda has been around since the TV was invented and made easily obtainable for the masses. It's well known that the CIA had there own little moles and rats infesting multimedia networks back in the 1950's and 1960's. People are just too arrogant and stubborn to believe that their Government would actually try to lie, cover up, mislead and manipulate their minds. I take everything I see now on CNN, FOX, ABC & CBS with a grain of salt when it's on the TV at work. And I am grateful for our internet access here where you can still find independent news sources, independent journalism  and with no biased agendas or incentives, etc. That's our great bastion. Give our Government time though. They're working around the clock to infiltrate and limit that freedom as well. Just take a look at the bias actions that social networking sites such as Twitter and Facebook have been called out for over the last few years with silencing certain accounts or allowing hate fueled or extreme views to go unpunished and unchecked. But, day after day, people wake up or come home from work and they swallow up that lunch meat they get from good old CNN, FOX, ABC & CBS. They just take it all in at face value. There is more to every story or issue than just some catchy headline or jingle with a fifteen minute to hour long special to pull on your heart strings. Do your own homework. Do your own research. And CRITICALLY think. Don't let these people do the thinking for you. I know it's hard for some of you. But all you have to do is try.
