Here's some rules for the road that the local, national, global press seems to have adopted these days. I borrowed the information from another reader's comment in an MSNBC "news" article relating to that fellow, Rachael Maddow and it's employer, MSNBC. Neither of which I'm a fan.:

The American Press. A propaganda machine.
"Propaganda must facilitate the displacement of aggression by specifying the targets for hatred."
~ Joseph Goebbels
"Think of the press as a great keyboard on which the government can play."
~ Joseph Goebbels
"Not every item of news should be published. Rather must those who control news policies endeavor to make every item of news serve a certain purpose"
~ Joseph Goebbels
"The most brilliant propagandist technique will yield no success unless one fundamental principle is borne in mind constantly - it must confine itself to a few points and repeat them over and over."
~ Joseph Goebbels
"The essence of propaganda consists in winning people over to an idea so sincerely, so vitally, that in the end they succumb to it utterly and can never escape from it."
~ Joseph Goebbels
