Not seven seconds
I've often used Polistra's Seven Second Rule to track the Official Shared Lies and Officially Approved Alternate Wordings of the various propaganda outlets. Tune in, count seven seconds. Before seven you'll hear the Approved Wording of the specific outlet. For many years Repooflicans could be relied on to say ZERO TAX before seven. Later it was BENGHAZI. NPR could be relied on to say LGBT before seven. BBC was "Global Warming".
Now all of the Different Wordings have been reduced to one, and it doesn't take seven seconds. Absolutely everything from Repoofs to CNN to NYTimes to BBC to the money-talk types, even EWTN. It's not just "news", it's all the time. It's even in advertisements.
One message.
The last time we had such perfect uniformity was 1917.
