The Franklin Scandal Pdf The franklin scandal pdf Continue Scandal and mystery enshroud food network this week, so let's start with the best part: scandal. The food chain's highly touted January 3 episode of Iron Chef America featuring star chefs Mario Batali and Emeril Lagasse competing with FN-grown celebrity chef Bobby Flay and White House chef Criseta Comerford wasn't quite all they had promised. Of course, there was tension and excitement of hot competition, but vegetables, man, vegetables! The products used in the competition that evening presumably came from the White House garden. Film crews even recorded chefs picking vegetables themselves and then - vegetables in hand - marching to fight their battle, except... The contest was actually withdrawn a week later in New York. The delay in time meant of course the vegetables would be composted if they held on to them and, instead, donated to the local food bank, according to Michelle Obama's press office. Chefs end up using the same varieties of locally produced products from the New York area at the very shoot. Apparently, this news has been floating around since November, says the AOL Politics Daily blog, having been mentioned in the New York Times and then on the food policy blog, Obama Foodorama. Viewers were misled? The network insists it was ahead about the vegetable trick, but the stock for the episodecertainly implies the opposite. And now, the mystery. The Food Network has begun filming six new episodes of Private Chef Beverly Hills, according to Reality TV World. The show, which debuted in a pilot last month, features the hardships and dramas of several private chefs working for Big City Chefs, a private chef hosting the agency in the always chic and often tacky southern California city. What's the big mystery? You won't find any mention of the program - even an episode from last month - on the FN website. Could this have anything to do with the gloomy reaction of the audience? Gawker was certainly underwhelmed: The food cooked at the show was pedestrian. Characters: boring. Conflict: not convincing at all. Oh.

You may be able to find more information about this and similar content on piano.io rumors dating back to the mid-1990s claim that dozens of people associated with Bill and Hillary Clinton died under mysterious circumstances, provoking outlandish conspiracy theories about the former president's alleged involvement in their deaths. The idea of a Clinton body count, which originated during Bill's presidency, reared its head again during Hillary Clinton's presidential campaigns in 2008 and 2016. A typical chain email promoting conspiracy theories lists more than two Man who allegedly 'had dirt on the Clintons', including former White House adviser Vince Vince businessman James McDougal and Susan Coleman, a law student who allegedly had an affair with Bill Clinton. The letter describes the circumstances of each person's death and advises the reader to pass it on. Let the public realize what's going on with anyone who can damage Clinton's car! Clinton's widely circulated text hints that several dozen Clinton friends, some of whom allegedly possessed compromising information about the former first couple, died under mysterious circumstances, meaning they were secretly narrated. In more ways than one, this is reminiscent of the same paranoid conspiracy theories floated during the Bush-hate 2000s, namely that forces in the Bush administration secretly orchestrated 9/11 terrorist attacks. Both theories are based on absurd assumptions: that the U.S. president can secretly order the murders of dozens (or, in Bush's case on 9/11, thousands) of American citizens without being discovered, ratted on, prosecuted, impeached, or even as much as accused of such crimes by members of Congress, including staunch political opponents. That the President of the United States can impeccably carry out such crimes, while demonstrating complete and utter error (if not gross ineptitude) in the face of other, more prosaic challenges (for example, Clinton's inability to suppress accusations of sexual harassment and avoid impeachment). Why should we also ask that special prosecutor Kenneth Starr, who has spent years and millions of taxpayer dollars trying to dig up dirt of any kind on the Clintons, has never issued a single indictment concerning these alleged murders? The answer is simple, because the charges don't make sense. The earliest version of Clinton's body count was authored by Indianapolis attorney Linda Thompson, founder of the right-wing group the American Justice Federation. Initially, the list contained the names of 26 alleged victims, though it grew and shrunk, and has grown again since then, with some options boasting more than 100 names. Unfortunately for conspiracy theorists, experts and investigators have examined these mysterious deaths, and they have found no evidence of foul play. The true circumstances of the deaths of the five Clinton victims are below. James McDougal: A friend and business partner of the Clintons, McDougal died of a heart attack, not an apparent heart attack, serving time in a fraud case. McDougal had a pre-existing heart condition. Prison guards placed him in solitary confinement after he refused to take a urine test and failed to provide him with the medication he kept in his cell, according to a subsequent investigation. No foul play was suspected. Mary Mohan: One of the first interns to work in the Clinton White House, according to her No news source reported her murder. that Mohane, a lesbian, is willing to claim that she survived sexual harassment in the White House. She died of gunshot wounds along with two other employees of Georgetown, D.C., during a botched robbery attempt on 6 July 1997. During the police investigation and written confession of the killer, Carl Cooper of Washington, D.C., Mahoney was shot while fighting with the criminal for the keys to the safe. A witness confirmed that Cooper had planned to rob a Starbucks at least a month before the crime. Vince Foster: A lifelong friend of the Clintons, White House aide Vince Foster killed himself with a gun on July 20, 1993. He was suffering from depression. At least five official investigations were carried out in the circumstances of his death and none found evidence of foul play. In 1997, Special Prosecutor Kenneth Starr's own report on the Vince Foster case was unsealed by the U.S. Court of Appeals. The evidence clearly points to suicide as a method of death, the report said. Ron Brown: Brown, who served as Secretary of Commerce under President Clinton, died in a plane crash on April 3, 1996. Conspiracy theorists claim that X-rays of Brown's head showed possible bullet fragments in the vicinity of what some described as a gunshot wound. A re-examination reviewed by a team of military pathologists found no bullets, no bone fragments, no metal fragments and, more eloquently, no exit wounds, according to Chicago Tribune columnist Clarence Page.C. Victor Raiser II: This prominent Democratic fundraiser and close friend of Bill Clinton died along with his son and four other people in a plane crash in Alaska in 1992. Reiser had no connection to any scandal with Clinton, and his death was not mysterious. An investigation by the National Transportation Safety Board found that the pilot, who survived the crash, stopped the plane in an attempt to move away from the dangerous, cloud-covered mountain pass at the last minute.

    © Copyright 2020 Yunkang Yang The Political Logic of the Radical Right Media Sphere in the United States Yunkang Yang A dissertation submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy University of Washington 2020 Reading Committee: W. Lance Bennett, Chair Matthew J. Powers Kirsten A. Foot Adrienne Russell Program Authorized to Offer Degree: Communication University of Washington Abstract The Political Logic of the Radical Right Media Sphere in the United States Yunkang Yang Chair of the Supervisory Committee: W. Lance Bennett Department of Communication Democracy in America is threatened by an increased level of false information circulating through online media networks. Previous research has found that radical right media such as Fox News and Breitbart are the principal incubators and distributors of online disinformation. In this dissertation, I draw attention to their political mobilizing logic and propose a new theoretical framework to analyze major radical right media in the U.S. Contrasted with the old partisan media literature that regarded radical right media as partisan news organizations, I argue that media outlets such as Fox News and Breitbart are better understood as hybrid network organizations. This means that many radical right media can function as partisan journalism producers, disinformation distributors, and in many cases political organizations at the same time. They not only provide partisan news reporting but also engage in a variety of political activities such as spreading disinformation, conducting opposition research, contacting voters, and campaigning and fundraising for politicians. In addition, many radical right media are also capable of forming emerging political organization networks that can mobilize resources, coordinate actions, and pursue tangible political goals at strategic moments in response to the changing political environment.

    NATIONAL GEOGRAPHIC’S PRESENTATION OF: THE SECRETS OF FREEMASONRY Research From The Library of: Dr. Robin Loxley, D.D. Copyright 2006 INTRODUCTION It is obvious that NATIONAL GEOGRAPHIC got a hold of information from other resources and decided to do a cable presentation on May 22, 2006, which narrates most of my website threads in short two hour special. It was humorous to see Masons being interviewed and trying to fool the public with flattering speech. I watched the National Geographic special entitled: THE SECRETS OF FREEMASONRY and I was humored to see some of what I’ve studied as coming out of the closet. My first response was: Where was National Geographic during the 1980s with this information? Anyways, it’s nice to know that they had an excellent presentation and I was impressed with how they went about explaining the layout of Washington D.C. I was laughing hysterically when a Mason was interviewed for his opinion about the PENTGRAM being laid out in a street design but incomplete. The Mason made a statement: “There is a line missing from the Pentagram so it’s not really a Pentagram. If it was a Pentagram, then why is there a line missing?” He downplays the street layout of the Pentagram with its bottom point touching the White House. The Mason was obviously IGNORANT of one detail that I caught right away as to why there was ONE LINE MISSING from the pentagram in the street layout. If you didn’t catch it, the right side of the pentagram star (Bottom right line) is missing from the street layout, thus it would prove that the pentagram wasn’t completed.

  • Social Media and the Post-Truth World Order the Global Dynamics of Disinformation
    Social Media and the Post-Truth World Order The Global Dynamics of Disinformation Gabriele Cosentino Social Media and the Post-Truth World Order “If the post-truth order is primarily marked by a generalized loss of trust in traditional sources of authority and information as well as a growing fragmen- tation of the media sphere, this book convincingly argues that the truth of the post-truth condition is not to be found in the details but within a global dis- cursive space where state and non-state actors, established powers and emerging political networks, build surprising alliances to hegemonize the public sphere and upend the post-1989 world order.” —Marco Deseriis, Assistant Professor, Scuola Normale Superiore Florence, Italy “Finally, we have a theory of post-truth that emerges from an international or global analysis. In this excellent development of empirically-grounded post-truth theory, Cosentino moves from well-known cases such as Pizzagate and Russian trolls in the U.S. 2016 presidential election, to cases that have received little to no attention in media and political communication studies, such as the “White Helmets” rumors amplified by Russian media in the Syrian civil war, the Face- book hate speech campaign against the Rohingya Muslim minority in Myanmar, and the disinformation apparatus that propelled Bolsonaro to power in Brazil. Cosentino’s analysis is also unique in its attention to the use of an array of platforms and spaces of media that are exploited for disinformative and misin- formative purposes, including 4chan and 8chan, Whatsapp, Facebook, Twitter, in addition to traditional news media.
