With the emergence of alternative media over the past five years, one must ask, why is this so.
The average American may not notice or even care that a majority of today’s media is spewed out of a faucet of only six major corporations.
You may have your favorite news outlet, but it’s a good chance they are owned by the same company or one of five others.
With that being said, I think it’s safe to say that these six corporations can control the thinking of the masses in America.
For those that like to keep up with what’s going on around the world, it’s a good idea to find alternate sources on the internet to get a real “fair and balance” perspective.
In 1983, 50 corporations controlled the vast majority of all news media in the U.S. At the time, Ben Bagdikian was called “alarmist” for pointing this out in his book, The Media Monopoly. In his 4th edition, published in 1992, he wrote “in the U.S., fewer than two dozen of these extraordinary creatures own and operate 90% of the mass media” — controlling almost all of America’s newspapers, magazines, TV and radio stations, books, records, movies, videos, wire services and photo agencies. He predicted then that eventually this number would fall to about half a dozen companies. This was greeted with skepticism at the time. When the 6th edition of The Media Monopoly was published in 2000, the number had fallen to six. Since then, there have been more mergers and the scope has expanded to include new media like the Internet market.
In 2004, Bagdikian’s revised and expanded book, The New Media Monopoly, shows that only 5 huge corporations — Time Warner, Disney, Murdoch’s News Corporation, Bertelsmann of Germany, and Viacom (formerly CBS) — now control most of the media industry in the U.S. General Electric’s NBC is a close sixth.

Sugar Glider’s are extremely social and bond naturally with their human owners.
If your dog is still a puppy then chances are introducing the two would go pretty smooth.
Most ferrets are easily trained to use a litter box and it helps if it is
kept in the same place in their cage or in the corners
of your “ferret room”.

The US Federal Reserve is at the root of all of this. Owned and controlled by foreign, psychopathic interests. Our country was allowed to be hijacked a century ago and our US military is being used and abused solely for these greedy blood thirsty elites. They care absolutely nothing about humanity or this planet which should be obvious to everybody by now. Ironically today the USA now resembles Nazi Germany far more than the Republic of America. This cabal owns and controls all aspects of our government, banks and wall street, law enforcement, media, schools, corporations, utilities, etc. They are the true axis of evil and are not to ever be trusted again! They are war mongers who incite these catastrophic events for their own profit and perverse greed for power and sick need of inflicting pain on innocent poor people worldwide. Look up the history of the Bush family fortune which directly ties to Hitler and the Holocaust. Americans need to wake up, grown up and remember who we are as AMERICANS, that our Founding Fathers loved us enough to protect us via the Declaration of Independence, not this feeble US Citizen that we’ve been conditioned to become in order to be exploited as a commodity for others. Do your own research starting with the history of the US Federal Reserve which is the biggest fraud in American history. There are mass protests being done all over the world by people that are informed and refuse to go along to get along with the diabolical plan the cabal has in mind for us called the New World Order. Any public figure not trying to inform you of this reality is either in on it and getting well paid to keep it going, or clueless and therefore worthless. Red, blue or purple its all the same! Please take heed of my advice regarding researching the above as knowledge is power for the masses and ignorance power for the masters which is exactly how they see us, as tax and debt slaves! United we stand, divided we fall! “When people fear their Government you have tyranny, When Government fears ‘We The People’ you have LIBERTY!”
