[grc] The Left's Low-power Coup -- Prometheus WON!

[Paul Bame]

Wow is all I can say -- this turned up in a google news search for
Prometheus...

Here's some high-quality (well-written, good research, credible-sounding)
conservative fear-mongering propaganda, and an elevation of Prometheus to
considerable lefty heights!  It's built on a bed of unstated false
premises, for example that because LPFM was most-visibly started and
supported by lefties, that LPFM stations only run lefty content. This is a
variation of the false, but historically effective, "myth" of the "liberal
media", which is itself also loosely based on shooting the messenger
(surveys that most journalists are not Republicans) rather than systematic
analysis of the content produced.  It's also interesting that of the
rotating photographs on our web page, they chose the one most frightening
to many altrighters: _women_ of _color_ with _children_ -- translation: end
of the white race. Probably will be quite effective in Trumpland.

Can I please have a decent salary to write propaganda? Oh wait, of course
Soros is handing me money already! How could I have missed that?!
