As if things were not bad enough for the FOX News Network now due to the Israeli-Hezbollah war being fought in Southern Lebanon CNN has its ratings soaring like never before. CNN ratings are up nearly 400% since the fighting began 25 days before. It appears that the Arms Trade Business Industry is not the only industry, which makes big bucks off of the tragedy of war as humans slaughter their own kind?
One has to ask in all this one certain question and that is we know it is in the best interest of CNN that the war continue, with no cease-fires as it gives them over a month to talk about it. If further escalation erupts with Syria or Iran, well that is even better for the News Media, as it expands the entire pie or number of viewers as well as the those for record breaking CNN. So, now then isn’t it in CNNs best interest and its shareholders to further help escalate the sound and fury of mankind?
And too that point all this war signifying nothing that we already do not know; that is to say that mankind is a barbarian; it only stands to reason that CNN will report the most horrific scenes to further promote more war in a self-serving cycle of human violence. Interesting philosophical thought on war is it not? Consider all this in 2006.
