Leftist media employ devious, sinister tactic
Journalists go on in-your-face mission to deceive Americans, alter perception

American news media are deliberately reshaping war-on-terror terminology for propaganda purposes to prevent radical Muslims from being perceived in a negative light in the wake of the 9/11 attacks a decade ago.

That's the claim of Pamela Geller, author of the just-released book, "Stop the Islamization of America: A Practical Guide to the Resistance."

"A big part of the problem facing America today is the obfuscation and disinformation fed to the American people as a daily diet of slow poison," says Geller, publisher of the popular AtlasShrugs.com.

"Today the left is manipulating language to make Americans ignorant or complacent about the Islamic threat."

Get your autographed copy of Pamela Geller's brand-new book, "Stop the Islamization of America" directly from WND.

She says one simple example can be seen with how the word "extremist" is now utilized in news stories.

"It is commonly used of both Islamic jihad terrorists, and those who fight against them and against Islamization in general," Geller explains.

"So for the mainstream lapdog media, the Fort Hood jihad assassin Major Hasan is an 'extremist,' and so am I. The word is used to claim that Islam has nothing to do with jihad terrorism – it's all just 'extremism,' and every religion has its 'extremists.' This requires that non-Muslims be found who are also 'extremists,' and branding me and other freedom fighters with this word also has the effect of implying that we're beyond the bounds of rational and acceptable discourse."

Joe Biden refers to Repubs as terrorists, but the left just refuses to use the "terrorist" label where it logically belongs... ON ****ING TERRORISTS.

Waiter, I'll have some newspeak with my cognitive dissonance.

“The American people will never knowingly adopt socialism. But, under the name of ‘liberalism’, they will adopt every fragment of the socialist program, until one day America will be a socialist nation, without knowing how it happened.” - Norman Thomas, U.S. Socialist Party presidential candidate 1940, 1944 and 1948

"America is like a healthy body and its resistance is threefold: its patriotism, its morality, and its spiritual life. If we can undermine these three areas, America will collapse from within."  Stalin

not only that but the MSM also labeled Anders Brievik as a Christian extremist, ignoring the fact that his own manifesto completely destroys the 'conservative christian' label
