The Truth About Journalism - This Is How Our Worldview Is Manipulated

Alejandro Kaiser

Summary

⚠ EDITORIAL WARNING – CRITICAL INVESTIGATIONThis book examines the real functioning of modern journalism, its corporate structures, its financial dependencies, and its direct influence on the construction of public opinion.It does not accuse individuals nor delegitimize the press as an institution; it analyzes mechanisms, dynamics, and conflicts of interest that can distort the citizen’s perception.The reader is invited to contrast, not to obey —to observe, not to consume passively.Here, things are questioned.Here, things are compared.Here, thinking takes place.“Journalism is publishing what someone does not want you to publish.Everything else is public relations.”— William Randolph Hearst“In dictatorships, elections are manipulated; in democracies, voters are manipulated.”— George OrwellMost citizens trust that being informed means opening a newspaper, turning on the television, or reading headlines on social media. We believe we are comparing sources when, in reality, we return again and again to the same handful of media conglomerates that control, directly or indirectly, a large portion of the world’s newspapers, channels, and broadcasters.The fact is simple, yet rarely acknowledged:the global media ecosystem is not diverse, but centralized.Few owners. Few boards of directors. Few hands deciding what is published… and what never reaches the public’s eyes.The average citizen believes that each newsroom investigates independently. But much of what we consume originates in news agencies that supply thousands of outlets with nearly identical texts. That is why we find the same article, the same phrases, and sometimes the same headline in supposedly independent newspapers. Investigative journalism —the kind that exposes, disturbs, and strips power bare— is increasingly marginal compared to information packaged and distributed as standardized merchandise.Journalists are not villains. Many entered the profession to seek the truth… but the system is not designed to reward it. What happens when investigating an advertiser means losing funding? Which outlet bites the hand that feeds it?The answer is obvious.And silent.What the reader will find here:✔ how global media oligopolies function✔ who decides what is published and what is hidden✔ why agencies replaced the classic reporter✔ how the “opinion cartel” operates internationally✔ why PR is replacing real journalism✔ and, above all, how to recover critical thinkingThis book does not ask for faith.It asks for reasoned doubt.It asks for thinking again.Because freedom of the press is worth nothingif we lose the freedom to understand.

The Peanut Factory

Deborah Price

A coming-of-age memoir about a young woman and her friends squatting in abandoned houses in London in the late 70s during the emerging counterculture scene.
Set in South London (Crystal Palace), Deborah mingled with some of the biggest names to emerge from the scene. She booked The Damned's first show, served pints to Johnny Rotten, and attended a backyard gig from King Kurt.
Squat life was sex, drugs and punk rock but it wasn't all fun and games. The Peanut Factory shows Deborah navigating a male-dominated scene, moving every few months and living with drug dealers, sex workers, people on the run, and working-class kids like her.
Despite the chaos, the squatters were a family. They were kids creating their own rules. Making art. Living life on the fly. The Peanut Factory is an ode to the youthful rebellion of the 1970s and to London itself.
'A window into a time of raw energy and rough edges, Deb Price paints a vivid picture of life in the squats of South London. By turns amusing and alarming, but always engaging, we accompany a teenager as she navigates her way to womanhood in a sub-culture on the margins.' - Allie Rogers, author of Little Gold and Tale of a Tooth

Mengele And Nazi Doctors During...

Joshua Itzkowitz

The experiments conducted during World War II provide some of the most extreme examples of human rights and ethics breaches the world has so far seen. There is no benefit in considering the Nazi experiments as “other” or irrelevant. The greatest good that can come from these atrocities is the lessons they have to teach about what plays into and creates a hostile research environment. Before the rise of Hitler and the Nazi party, Germany was at the forefront of medical research and ethics.The rise of the National Socialist movement led to a moral decline in physicians’ perception of their professional identity.This was reinforced by concepts like “lives not worth living,” which were often repeated in Nazi propaganda and played a central role in justifying the atrocities committed under the Nazi regime.The Nazi era in general, and the behavior of Nazi doctors in particular, show that despite a general historical progression toward greater humanity, egregious regressions and moral backsliding have occurred.
