#Homs:#CNN Staged Media Reporting from Syria - Fabricating the News

Even the best laid plans of mice and men turn sour sometimes. This is never more true than in the cointelro corporate mainstream media sphere.
Dayem was caught conducting what appears to be staged media reports from Syria. Although the seasoned spin doctor Cooper is able to coolly direct their conversation, Syrian Danny cannot hide the obvious panic which had already set in as a result of being exposed as a stage actor manufacturing news in his alleged home country.

The video below shows CNN’s point man Anderson Cooper conducting damage control with the mainstream media’s public face of the Syrian opposition, Danny Dayem who can be seen pleading on air, “Why would we have to manipulate anything?”.....read more



Prison Planet’s Paul Joseph Watson details CNN’s recent PR defensive in his recent article, including repeated tacit admissions by a visibly uncomfortable Dayem, back pedalling in a vigorous effort to cover his own tracks after the leaked out-takes of these synthetic news reports were aired via a recent exposĂ© on Syrian state television.

Ironic that Anderson Cooper’s CNN program is entitled “360″, as the the spin employed in their Syria coverage is nearly disorienting. As Dayem’s on-camera US media handler, Cooper himself is no stranger to the world of spooks, spies and media psy-ops, serving within the CIA from a young age. In terms of a well-documented CIA media operation like Operation Mockingbird, a trusted news celebrity like Cooper would be  considered a prize asset in the agency’s agenda to influence US domestic and western foreign opinion for the purposes of winning acceptance of a said Washington foreign policy objective.

Any news anchor’s responsibility within Operation Mockingbird is first to plant, or “seed” and then repeat specific ideas and talking points for the mainstream discussion, while directing the conversation throughout, with the ultimate goal of achieving what social engineers describe as a ‘consensus reality’.

From its humble beginnings in 1980 as a perceived underdog to majors ABC, CBS and NBC, Ted Turner’s Cable News Network aka CNN gained the trust of American viewers early on and is still riding that wave today. In truth, CNN has actually pioneered fake news in modern US media - starting with the first Gulf War in 1991, when their producers staged a faux missile attack from a broadcast studio in Saudi Arabia- complete with blue screen back-drops, potted palm trees and fake air-raid sirens.

 Like Syrian Danny’s staged reports from Homs, CNN’s vintage Gulf War I agitprop theatrics also used fake gun fire sounds and mock explosions in order to make the American public believe something was happening live on air – when it really wasn’t (see vintage leaked video below).

The whole Syrian regime change agenda originally cooked up in Whitehall and Washington DC some years ago and hinges on making the western public believe that UNARMED Syrian protestors are the ‘opposition’ – and the ruling government is engaged in what CNN describes every 15 minutes as “a violent crackdown on opposition”.

According to other reports from networks that do not have a history of fabricating news – like Russia Today, the opposition are very much armed and engaged in random violence. Independent journalist and author Webster Tarpley corroborated this during his investigative visit to Homs in November 2011 when the alleged social uprising was supposed to be at its peak, only to find Central American-style ‘death squads’, and ’opposition’ snipers were stationed on the roof tops all over the city, shooting unarmed civilians for the purposes of blaming the violence on the Assad government security forces, thus fomenting discontent with the ruling government.

By now it is very well documented that the western powers, along with Qatar and Saudi Arabia, are curently supplying arms and providing logistical support to foreign al-Qaeda militias inside Syria

Watching Danny’s theatrical news reports, one cannot help but refer to Barry Levinson’s 1997 film Wag the Dog where Robert DeNiro and Dustin Hoffman do Washington’s bidding and create a phony war in Albania (watch video below). This is taking the concept of yellow journalism to its extreme, but that’s exactly what CNN has done by fabricating its own staged war scenes and airing its unsubstantiated and highly dubious news reports of “more dead protesters” in Homs....read more
