Should Alex Jones replace Piers Morgan and reform CNN from within?

Some of you might have heard the hilarious news that Piers Morgan has once again proven himself an utter failure and has lost his show on CNN. In a way I am a bit saddened by this as Piers is part of my evening relaxation routine and his phoney posturing and paper talking heads routinely had me in stitches with the bizarre things they would say.

Alex Jones was ranting about CNN for a rather long time in his show and claims that if he were to replace Piers Morgan that he would have ratings of 2 million immediately and 15 million in a matter of weeks as his truth is what people want to hear about rather than endless state governed propaganda. It is for that reason too, that a corporatist dinosaur like CNN would never employ him.

I think it would be great to have someone like Alex Jones on my television. However, it is unlikely to ever happen. They will probably give the job to some wanker like Tony Blair and it would be endless corporatist war machine propaganda. I can laugh at Piers Morgan, there is nothing funny about Tony Blair. Except his hair, though even that is getting less amusing and seems to be in permanent decline.

So the question to set the world alight, would you like to see Alex Jones given a mainstream audience. Personally, I think he would be a delight.

Who could possibly watch more than two nanoseconds of a sanctimonious idiot like Morgan? Jones is no better though, the shouty twat. Why don't you watch the BBC's newsnight on the internet or listen to the radio like a proper Englishman?

I get the BBC, but they only show newsnight once a week. I watch it though and watch other things like that and Question Time on the computer. For general news though, I avoid the BBC and CNN as I don't trust them. Newsnight can be very good though.

I totally agree with you about Piers Morgan and on a moral and ethical basis, I shouldn't watch. However, it is on at 9pm in the evening and is perfect to help me wind down for my 10pm bedtime. It's a rubbish programme and I totally agree with all criticism of Piers Morgan. He is a moron and his campaign to rid America of guns was particularly cringeworthy. I have been called a cunt in my time, but if any man in the world is a cunt Piers Morgan would be in the top 10 list of most people.

In saying that though, Piers Morgan has improved my sleeping habits. 8 times out of 10 I am asleep within minutes of his programme ending. That's an impressive feat.

alex is alright by me........ he always says the truth, albeait exaggerates his ass off but I would rather THAT than the shill-scum mainstream scum.

Does anyone have CNN's phone number? We should alert then to this groundbreaking poll.

Alex Jones is exactly what CNN needs to take them over the top as the laughing stock of cable news....sure MSNBC has the advantage for the moment what with Rachel Maddow being berated by fellow liberal Bill Maher for being too focused on the Chris Christie highway off ramp-gate, but Alex Jones will show that CNN is serious about how agenda driven their narrative is.

However I'm betting CNN shows Jay Leno the money and signs him up because he can still draw a crowd and he won't be as controversially liberal. Plus he's American and isn't likely to be so fucking smug and judgmental like Piers.


My favorite part of Piers Morgan's firing/resigning is the reaction of one Jeremy Clarkson who tweeted the following....

I'm feeling strangely contented this morning. I wonder if something wonderful has happened somewhere

I understand that Nigerian TV is looking for a new chat show host. Anyone got any suggestions?

Hmm. Morgan has told us for years that his ratings are sky high. So obv he wasn't sacked for that reason. Why else could it be, I wonder?

That has made me feel good

piers morgan is a buffoon, interviewing people and doesn't even know what he's talking about. Very little knowledge of the subject matter that he's expounding his opinions on.

Alex Jones is kind of a paranoid nutbar though he's informative, but I quickly grow weary of him too and his cult of fear propagation. But at least you learn some things from him... (which one should try to verify rather than believing right away.)

The real problem with mass media in our capitalist world is that a handful of corporations, about 6 of them, literally own all the media, channels, newspapers, new sites, etc, you name it.
With a corporate-owned media, and with many corporations having interests in environmentally-damaging, high-profit industries like tar-sands, rare earths mining, lumbering, deep-sea oil drilling, the mass media is now merely a corporate tool to control and misinform people. It's all propaganda.
There is no freedom of the press anymore except for some small independent media.
There are no longer journalistic ethics.

There's no longer right and wrong, just what makes money and what one can get away with.

People laugh at Alex Jones, but he is on our side. He froths at the mouth, he gets silly, and that is because he admits he is not smart. He is not pretending to be Chomsky. However, like Chomsky he is on our side on most of these issues. The elite are on none of our sides, the media has left us by the wayside.

Alex Jones is doing something good and I don't think he would ever sell out. CNN sold out with the people they do ads for, by constantly telling us about the stock market and who to buy cars from.

Real news should be telling the truth about the Fed, about the financial terrorism being carried out by HSBC and only a slap on the wrist. This bank in particular is a perpetual criminal and a tiny slap on the wrist is enough as 'We don't want to hurt the global economy'. This is now legal mafia.

Chomsky is a twat

Alex Jones IS smart, which is why when he is pressed on information he consistently switches subjects. His views are more than a bit odd, but the whole "I just want to ask questions" shtick is something the media actually USED to do. Jones just fucks it up by being way too conspiracy oriented

Why is Chomsky a twat?. When you comment on the now, then you will underestimate things sometimes. Chomsky is only human. Hitchens a twat, sure. Dershowitz a twat, sure. Chomsky is the smartest of them all. The reason he is is because he is the most consistent and is obviously most difficult to catchout.

Jones, can be taken to task because he gets silly. Chomsky doesn't get silly. One is an entertainer and the other is not an entertainer. That is the key difference. Chomsky doesn't pose.

Chomsky is a professor of LINGUISTICS...he knows fuck all about politics, economics, or anything else. To sidle up to him and just take his word on EVERYTHING is idiotic but go right ahead, be my guest.

Don't be so ignorant Lyle.

Chomsky has taught us a lot of in terms of explaining how we use languge. Let's not pretend that politics or economics are somehow noble fields that can tell us anything more than the casual observer. The are fraudualent subjects and I will say that having studied one of them. Chomsky is smarter than the casual observer and shows how futile those fields are. They are infinitely less than rocket science.

Enough said....Noam Chomsky is one of those bastards if I ever saw in person I'd punch him right in the face because he is a liar and a twat

David Horowitz? Are you serious. You are on a mission to assassinate a character, but are doing it through people who nobody respects.

You can't do that unless you expect to come across the same way.

Typical, never trust a guy who "left the plantation" eh comrade?

Christopher Hitchens comments about Chomsky will no doubt fall on deaf ears, but whatever. You want to drink the Anti-America Kool Aid that Chomsky spews then be my guest, the world has no shortage of dolts who follow that idiot

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f7IQvi_ks_g

Now what does that video prove? Dershowitz works for CNN today and is regularly on the Piers Morgan show. Does that not answer everything about Dershowitz? He is a shill of a failed programme.

Right, and Hitchens was the dumb fat fuck who defended the Bush illegal war. Hitchens was a bright, bright man, but eventually enough drink and a green card pushed him over the edge.

Now, suggest a time when Chomsky was ever bought out. Or sold his values. It never happened.

Nobody really hates America. America is despised by all because the elite hate the world and its own citizens. Nobody needs Chomsky to know any of this.

If you actually took the time to understand people you would see that people like me like America. I like it more than my own country. My only problem is the fact that is an insane country. Some of you are very nice, but your politics has stolen your souls.

It drones, it vanishes, it tortures, it is doing to the world what they did to the Indians, and it is that part that I loath. Leading banks have been laundering money to terrorists. Any crimes considering that a war on terror is being fought?

No, don't be silly. America is the biggest hypocrite in the world.

Chomsky is the biggest hypocrite....he DOES hate America but where does he live?

miles, I'm not going to start with the God damned Indians again miles. I'm tired of the fucking fallacy you and all your wormy looking pencil necked heroes love to ASSUME that Indians were peaceful, didn't war with each other, didn't enslave each other, didn't massacre each other....yeah you go live in Pretendville like you want. Repent for the "sins" of your ANCESTORS...be sure to do that.

Chomsky is not a hypocrite and to be waltzing around calling him a twit destroys any argument you make because he isn't and you cannot back it up. He is a trained linguist, so your initial argument was on that basis he shouldn't be listened to. Do you really think trained economists, political theorists, or politicians are any more enlightened? They are largely crooks who say the right things to keep their jobs and maintain influence.

America has a terrible history from the Indians through to the treatment of minorities. Hitler was inspired by America and unfortunately the US bankers even supported him. Like I say, I think some of you have good hearts. But your system is rotten to the core. You do not have democracy.

america sucks. no freedom there anymore. cant do thsi and cant do that, fined here and fined there, cant grow a vegetable garden, cant collect rainwater, cant sell lemonade, cant build a fire, cant drink a beer in a park----I have been to 24 countries on this planet----lived, worked, studied, toured---ONLY AMERICA HAS SO MANY FUCKING LAWS YOU CANT DO SHIT THERE. BEER IN A PARK??? Seems to work OK in Korea or Malaysia or Turkey-----try drinking a beer in a park in America. You will get arrested by jack-booted military-style police and thrown to the ground. Try building a fire in America. Try burning some leaves in your backyard. Try buuiding a small fire at your curb in front of your house and roasting some potatos or hotdogs. YOu will get arrested in no time. Neighborhood Chrostian Crime Watch Committee. Every country I have been in you can build a small fire in front of your house, curbside, roast some potatos, marshmallows, whatever *I can hear the stupid american responses here--typical american idiot responses like WHO WOULD WANT TO ROAST POTATOS IN FROnT OF THEIR HOUSE??? and other bullshit american narrowminded thinking----

Yes, you can drink anywhere you like here, even piss anywhere you like too. That is freedom.

Korea, Turkey, Malaysia, if you want to piss, you piss. If you want to burn some paper, you burn it. If you want to walk down the street sipping a beer, you fucking sip it. There are no Nanny State Faggots telling you whats good for you or for society. I got so used to drinking a beer in an internet cafe, or lighting small fires outside my driveway, or pissing wherever, there are literally millions of examples----being served free steak or free bacon or free roast duck in supermarkets as you stroll by the displas, I was offered free wine, free tequila and free beer in every single Korean supermarket I ever shopped at for 4 years, by the liquor section hostesses, IMAGINE THIS NIGHTMARE NOW IN AMERICA, IMAGINE THE AMERICAN DELINQUENTS WHO WOULD DRINK IN THE SHOP RITE AND THEN RUN AROUND CAUSING TROUBLE. Truth is americans are idiots and assholes, ad thats why they need all thse fucking laws.

Exactly, you hear people going on about freedom, but they don't have freedom. Freedom means being able to do what you want when you want and as long as you aren't causing a nuisance or hurting anybody, then there should be no checks on you. Being able to drink in public is a good thing, I like to go to the local shop and just have a can in there sometimes, and of course in Costco they hand out free samples of beer and wine. Nobody is going to tell you off or tell you what to do.

The West has become so uptight and is gouging people to death through taxes, inflation, regulation and fear. UK VAT of 20 odd percent. How insane is that? You pay taxes at work, supposedly corporations pay their taxes and then they tax you to buy something? Just repression at every corner. At least greater freedom means only 10% here, but still.The irony is that the one thing they should regulate and make pay is finance and they get the blank cheques and bonuses for failure! That is the opposite of freedom.

I'm not so harsh on the average American as most of them are just people and some of them are probably quite like us. There are a lot of sheep though and they are being fed nonsense for news. For instance, some of the reports on the Ukraine and Venezuela are just gibberish. How many digs has CNN made against Russia in the past few weeks and in turn never criticises America which is it's audience? It's not freedom.

Hitchens had balls, integrity and intelligence unlike Chomsky who has led everyone up a blind alley intellectually. It's like the Emperor's clothes and you have fallen hook line and sinker for it Miles. So much hyperbole and absolutely no concession to the intricacies and nuances of reality. Deluded rambling Miles, you are a man like Alex Jones who believes his own hype. Puffed up with your own importance to the point that your fat eye lids are distorting your view of the world and your ears are growing flaps to block out dissenting voices. You are so afraid to change that you dismiss anyone who tries to see the whole picture, your opinion is that of an idealistic teenage narcissist.

People want to know the truth and that is a reason people want to listen to Chomsky and also Alex Jones in his own rather more unusual way. Chomsky is a great in his field and very respected when commenting on politics. People who tell the truth are to be admired. Hitchens sometimes did and was great then, but otherwise, he sold out his values.

There is so much reality in figures like Chomsky, Keiser, Jones etc, but their lively personalities also help them shine. They cut to the chase and speak to the core of the British and American political discourse. They do a much more significant job that the mainstream newspaper government schill prints.

you guys are all UK, so maybe Im missing something, but I have always failed to see Miles supposed self importance guys. He nevers says he is great or better than anyone else. How can you arrive at self-importance just because he is a critic of social institutions? Isnt that an unfair stretch? Seriously, how is he self important? Facts please.

Different people dislike me for different kinds of reasons. I think one the reasons is because of my rhetorical style. They think it is someone in an ivory tower sneering on the rest of humanity. It's a warped vision though, because I want a better world, and say as much. Is it so arrogant to say that there are too many people and that a poor person would be better off without that 5th child? Is it so arrogant to say that drones are killing innocent people in sovereign lands and for no good reason? Is it so arrogant to say that I don't have time for the paralympics? It seems to affront the intelligence of some that I will say these things. Is it not the White House who is arrogant, or that the slothful poor are arrogant, or that the PC brigade is arrogant, or heaven forbid even that some other posters might be arrogant? All I do is express a point of view. It would be arrogant to control the media and tell you want to think, which is what they do. A voice on a forum is merely a point of view. It is mine and if that is arrogance. Well, I don't mind.

These same people will attack anyone that wants a better world though. Chomsky? Galloway? All devils, and Hitchens is far superior! Just a collosal contradiction there, considering that Hitchens was for an illegal war that has proven to be based on lies. Chomsky was correct. Galloway was correct. I was correct and we must all be hated and be called arrogant for calling them out as liars and manipulators. Galloway destroyed the bumbling sweaty Hitchens in debate.

They will condemn you if you say a word against immigration. That is a topic that they have under total wraps. Millions flooding the UK. In the US they are trying to allow 20 million illegals legal status. These are countries that don't have jobs for it's young people and the agenda is to sink them under waves of immigration. The nightmare is coming and rampant inter societal conflict is a nice deflection from the criminals from on high who created the mess. Oh, so arrogant to be telling the truth. 'You don't have empathy. You hate people. You want them to suffer'. They put words in your mouth that you have not spoken. They twist and squirm and if all else fails will call you a 'cunt'. If that is all that you have then you have lost the debate.

We must have a rosy country. We must celebrate the Jubilee and show that we are happy campers. That is arrogance and delusion thrown in with arrogance. I speak the truth as well as I can and if sometimes I froth at the mouth, then so be it. I won't be a patsy and accept the media and that alone. If we did that, then there would be no guns in America too. I don't want that. I don't want the collapse that is looming. It's bad for all. If I was arrogant, I would be like a banker, a politician, a journalist. I am neither, I am just someone who won't swallow the lemonade. It is spiked and making people accept a world that is much tougher than it was before. We are all responsible.

I am not better than anyone, I am just one of you, and I care. I don't hate anyone, but I do vehemently oppose power structures that propagandise so effectively, that they make people who go against the grain seem arrogant. 'They are paranoid, they are conspiracy theorists, they are arrogant'. Just because we refuse to swallow the water, and think memorising sports stats is stupid, that does not make us arrogant.

Who are "they" ?

Alex jones loves his guns.

miles dont feed the trolls

Greenbeanz isn't a troll. I just think he has been within the system so long that he has been conditioned to think in the manner he does. To hear people that say it is all a hoax will make one cranky, but it's the reality. For instance, only a country which programs people to accept monarchy will accept monarchy. Only a country which conditions you to accept a police state will have citizens who duly accept the impending police state. Only citizens who have been conditioned to accept immigration will accept it. It is the decimated middle classes who are perpetuating the nonsense; the working classes, appear to be chomping at the bit.

There is something seriously wrong with Britain and it is the so called intelligent media and intelligent people like Greenbeanz who are part of the problem. I think most ordinary people would agree that the monarchy is a joke, that immigration is an abomination, that the bank of England is criminal, that the secret service are a bunch of perverts. They would agree even more if the information was even given to them. Instead, the 'gatekeepers' will subvert, distort, and escape from the truth. The middle class middle men, the media, and the political elite are all looking out for one another; meanwhile they are actively destroying a great nation.

On the front pages of the gutter press they will happily say that Saville abused a million children, but will they say that the secret services are watching obese men and young girls masturbate on their webcams with bold headlines on the cover? This is perversion and it is English children that they are perving on. The BBC is actively avoiding the Snowden reports as though they are infectious diseases and they created Saville. Cameron is behaving as though is one of the predators. Comment on your corrupt system and investigate and reform it. They are proving Alex Jones correct.

What is my point? My point is that people like Alex Jones are actually behaving in a far more respectable manner than the political, economic, media, business, and middle classes. There is a message that he is trying to get across and looking at the latest stories about secret service perversion, he is once again absolutely correct. Piers Morgan wants to take away guns and argued it for 2 months, Edward Snowden and the revelations of a Stasi is stonewalled in a matter of weeks.

It's all too obvious. The mainstream is over and only a few are left standing in the real world. Most are actively defending a police state.

"Within the system ?"

No offense, GB as I like you. I just find some of your views to be a bit too much in line with how one is supposed to think as seen through the mainstream middle class media. For instance, immigration and the monarchy. The paralympics is another one, but when you actually talk about it, people will seldom disagree with you on the topic. A few raised eyes at first, but once you explain it and show that it is nothing hateful, typically people will agree. Nobody hates the disabled, but most would prefer to watch real football. Yet in this PC age, we must all salute the noble disabled and the media would never say that it's a bit silly. Likewise, but I don't know about you on this issue, the notion that the troops are heroes doing amazing deeds for us all. It just isn't true based on recent illegal wars, but we must all bow.

Asking a question of somebody who is clearly addressing me in a post is hardly trolling by any stretch of the imagination. Have you become so intolerant that now even three word posts are construed as something twisted? Yourself and Miles seem very intent on stamping down on dissent and ridiculing anyone that does not suck up to you both, and toe the party line. That is not the mark of a radical or someone willing to think outside of the box. You are both coming across as very square and narrow minded. This is a forum and it is most disingenuous of you both to make sweeping assumptions about other posters, simply because they might have a different view point to your own.

Kindly hold your tongue if you have nothing constructive to add to the debate.

Miles, you buy cardigans from Marks and Spencers and invest in Gold Bars. You are terrified of vegetables and music made by black people and yet somehow we are to believe that you are now a radical? Just because you live in South Korea that does not make you any less part of what you call "The System". You live in a capitalist consumer led country and churn out thread after thread of teen level angst about your boring selfish safe life and lash out at anyone and anything that might force you to change or look at the world in a different way, even when those "threats" are thousands of miles away. The immigrants are not coming to take YOUR job, you won't have to go and protest in the street, you can just watch the revolution on TV and sneer at how you would have done a better job than anybody else from your little apartment. Nobody is asking you to salute the disabled, just not to be such a pathetic whiner when you are not the centre of attention.

How many years has it taken you to realise that the obvious is not true? Have you never thought perhaps just for one tiny fleeting moment that other people may have come to realisations and made conclusions many years ago about what you are just now finally coming to grasp? I don't want to hate on you but maybe think before you just spout nonsense in future

I wrote and released this in 2012 based in a speech given by Alan Hunt Badiner in which he said

"A society that actively banishes personal exploration, with all psychedelic plants, will need to monitor, closely, all of its citizens. All our communications, transactions, and expressions are under increasing surveillance, by a growing and expensive bureaucracy of control and repression. None of this is conducive to the peaceful free contemplation of strategies for our personal liberation and fulfilment. In reality, this ceases to be a war on drugs, but rather is a war on consciousness, a war on the free exercise of the most precious gifts bestowed on human beings."

For a large part of the early nineties I was the projectionist and filmmaker/animater for a Punk/techno collective who as well as playing at many anti facist festivals around Europe would stack Televisions on stage and play out footage form the undercurrents protest groups and recipes for hallucinogenics, etc

After being a very vocal and active demonstrating activist when the first Gulf war kicked off I also wrote and released this in 2011

The point is you can't trust anyone. Alex Jones is a shill. Chomsky is in it for the kudos. All your heroes are fallable men with feet of clay. The Queen however much you may hate the monarchy is actually a human being and not a reptile and Immigration is a subject in which your opinion is no more or less important than that of anyone else.

I have never been part of "the System" any more than anyone else and have had a most unconventional and pretty eclectic existence. Again

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ICdWCqEWM7o&feature=c4-overview-vl&list=PLA20CD4E8BB704E82

I don't think drugs are the answer to oppressive totalitarianism. Drugs are a distraction and I think that is one of the reasons why Britain is struggling. They claim to be having a war on drugs, yet half the country is on them, be it legal or illegal. It distracts people and keeps them ignorant of cold, hard reality.

I don't begrudge you being right in the frame of the orthodox narrative which you are quite often as evidenced by more recent posting. On some issues you might resist, but on others you are very traditional. Immigration, monarchy and family are very traditional conformist positions to hold. I am not different or special, but I do resist in my own way and call a spade a spade. I don't think my views are especially radical either as popular opinion often largely agrees with me. Take immigration for example, the majority of immigrants themselves want a cap on immigration as do most working class English people. The middle class media would largely disagree with us all but, I think that is what fits you like a glove. 'Ooh, we are so caring, let's have more. To hell with those who disagree'. Such a Blairish attitude to a complex issue. 'Anyone who says no should be tarred as a racist' was how it was spun for decades. How mature the media and politicians have been!

Nothing I say is radical. It is mostly just common sense. The only thing that might be viewed as extreme is my stance on parenting, but considering that countries cannot even find jobs for their young and are sinking under mountains of false promises, my judgement is likely to turn out to be a sensible one. Robots will replace them, technology will do the work, and too many poor people will be a drain. I don't like that, but that is how it has been designed. True resistance is to not sell a soul. I would not have such an attitude in a caring world, but this is not a caring world. An average person can only do so much, and I am an average person. More people should realise that they are too. See, I don't talk myself up. I am quite aware of my limitations and live accordingly.

Also what is all this talk of gold bars and cardigans? I follow markets as any sensible person should, but don't blame me for the missing German Gold, it is in China, but should be in Germany. And I do not wear cardigans. I wear jackets and jeans. These are important distinctions.
