They discuss how mainstream media outlets like CNN, MSNBC, and major broadcast networks are perceived as propagating a liberal agenda, comparing these organizations to intelligence agencies in their ability to control information and manipulate narratives. They also critique the U.S. government's response to failures, particularly highlighting the post-9/11 scenario where, instead of accountability, there was a trend toward promoting individuals involved in failures and creating bureaucratic structures that do not effectively address the underlying issues.  We each must employ critical thinking and take a vigilant approach to consuming media and engaging with governmental actions to ensure accountability and combat misinformation. ----------------------------------------------- Connect with The Scalpel: Website: https://scalpeledge.com Email: KFR@scalpeledge.com TruthSocial: @scalpeledge Rumble: @TheScalpel X: @TheScalpelEdge Instagram: @TheScalpelPodcast
