Mainstream News Is Junk Food

The corporate media, as hilariously and obviously bogus as it has become these days, is no different from an addictive junk food product like Doritos, Oreos, or Coca-Cola. What makes these fake food products salable has nothing to do with their nutritional content, which is basically zero; it’s the monosodium glutamate (MSG), refined sugar, and artificial flavors that provide that instantaneous flavor “high” to keep consumers enslaved to buying such products, even when they know they’re toxic!
