Vice News Hip Pro War Propaganda

Journalist Anya Parampil, while embedded with the Embassy Protectors, observed that Vice News was acting as "the hipster media arm of the empire".

Far more effective than Fox News or CNN. As Noam Chomsky noted, explaining "liberal bias" in the mainstream media:

If the [propaganda] system functions well, it ought to have a liberal bias, or at least appear to. Because if it appears to have a liberal bias, that will serve to bound thought even more effectively.

In other words, if the press is indeed adversarial and liberal and all these bad things, then how can I go beyond it? They’re already so extreme in their opposition to power that to go beyond it would be to take off from the planet. So therefore it must be that the presuppositions that are accepted in the liberal media are sacrosanct — can’t go beyond them. And a well-functioning system would in fact have a bias of that kind. The media would then serve to say in effect: Thus far and no further.
