“The Israel/Jewish Lobby” is not just AIPAC and its many affiliated organizations. It’s also the major corporate media which continually misinforms and short-changes Americans by who it invites and who it doesn’t invite onto the major network and cable news programs.

Take for instance NBC’s Sunday program, MEET THE PRESS. This Sunday there was a major discussion about Obama, Syria, and the Middle East. But who was invited to the 4-person panel? Was there anyone from the Middle East or even connected with Syria?

The panel was made up of three American Jews, all intimately involved with Israel and Jewish organizations, all long-time friends of each other, all in fact owing their long careers and substantial paychecks to publications and groups with deep Jewish and Zionist roots. And the fourth panelist as well was one sharing the same views, the same friendships, someone long-rewarded by the same publications and organizations as well as the U.S. government with many speaking engagements, grants, and fellowships.

On top of this MEET THE PRESS is mostly sponsored these days by leading corporations that make up the military-industrial complex. As such MEET THE PRESS and most of the similar corporate network/cable “news” programs have become more de jure advertisements for the war industry and de facto disguised advertisements for the various publications and lobby groups that pay and promote “journalists” who do their bidding.
