FCC

It is time for the Federal Communication Commission to monitor the blatant lies in some media services (click here). According to the Newsweek article a woman with the convoy that went to the USA southern border found the conditions at the border were not as bad as she thought. 

Ya know, infotainment is causing Americans a lot of stress in broadcasting blatant lies. No American needs more stress in relation to their own personal safety and the safety of their family members.

The USA has been experiencing a booming labor market. Wages have kept up with inflation and in most instances show a small margin increase over inflation. In the last year inflation is far less than the year before.

Personally, a private industry job I work increased my pay 28 percent as a retention issue. I never asked for it and it is not union. Then management opened the number of hours worked to be decided by the individual while holding the line on hours required to work. 

President Joe Biden has conducted a magnificent return of the USA following a very volatile and deadly presidency preceding him. His job rating on the economy should be substantially better than it is. Additionally, President Biden and the Secretary of Defense never treated the USA military capacity as muscle bound. The use of our military has been more than appropriate in addressing genocide, potential threats to NATO, showing strength in the Pacific, and being a strong ally to Israel. 

The FCC needs to apply power in ensuring the American people are protected from the extreme right wing media that is completely out of control. The caravan of concerned Americans traveling to the southern USA border is uninformed and upset as well as being armed. The FCC is not doing its job and allowing frank and dangerous lies to cause such dangerous actions by Americans that sincerely love their country, but, have media full of misinformation and misdirection in reporting.

It is profitable to be conjuring up lies, but, that is also illegal. Infotainment is false advertising and Americans don’t realize it.
