FPR Blog 11: Media Monopoly; Consolidating to Control.

Main Source: Public Integrity.org

It's funny that this article should come out now. I've been researching online for weeks on a story I'm doing on the mainstream media and it's corruption by way of corporations.

I take a break from writing a few hours a day to look for electronic music to play on the stream. I like to visit my favorite sites for information while I do this..

Public Integrity is one of those websites.

They published a story on Tuesday, June 1, 2015, on a cable merger which would allow for an enormous cable company, to buy out another enormous cable company.

FPR Blog 10: How and Where I learned that Israel Should be Dismantled.

I'm in New York City, driving in an out of no where rain storm... It's flooding the streets with every passing minute. I'm thinking of getting off the road I'm on because it's a parking lot. I look to my left to go down 54th street from 12th avenue and I see a police van with the its lights flashing.

I'm thinking the street is closed, but as I start to turn my wheel to the right, I see a sign on a van that reads, "Jews Against Zionism".

I quickly look for my camera and just as quickly remember that I left my bag with my electronics at home.

I reach for my crappy iPhone 4. I am now on the west side highway with my hazards on, in a blinding rain storm, waiting for the cam app to finally let me take a pic.



Thank the stars it was like a train of vans with signs because it took forever to get a pic off.


So I'm snapping away and I see that the street is open and that the police van is on the sidewalk. I see a demonstration of what appears to be Hasidim Jews with the same Anti-Zionist/Anti-Israel signs.




I'd never done what I'm about to tell you and I don't know what came over me. It was a dangerous and stupid move, but I'm glad I did.

I popped a u-turn and illegally parked in front of cops.

FPR Blog 9: NSA Bulk Collection provision expires.Updated 6.1.15 Huge dent in the Patriot Act.

{{{Update}}} Tuesday June 1, 2015.

So the senate let it die, a slow death...

I guess a loss for the GOP would have been too hard to swallow. So, screw it, don't have the vote. Don't show Americans that you guys can agree on something very important.

Something the president said he would sign...

This would have been one of those  moments where, 'We The People' could have said, "wow, they actually agreed on something right for us".

Maybe the vote would have been to close and somebody didn't want to risk it.

Maybe they didn't want to look like the oppressors they are.

Who knows, but after that leak, this should not have been a hard problem to solve.

There should have been a cease and desist order on all tapping. (Below is some information on a court ruling that appealed Section 215 of the Patriot Act.)
