Tipping the scales?

This time last month local radio programme, Tipp Today, broke media ranks by airing the issue of excess deaths.

At the time, Kilkenny journalist Jimmy Rhatigan (who has extensively covered the topic) complemented them in The cat is out of the bag.

Now, just yesterday, local newspaper Tipp Echo took the courageous step of reproducing Rhatigan’s piece.

Why Tipperary? Why Kilkenny?

Maybe it’s because the two neighbours, and arch-rivals in hurling, have been suffering similar fates in recent years?

Ireland’s Excess Deaths – on American radio

Sept 10th, Robert Morningstar and Seán Ó’Nualláin co-hosted a conversation with Patrick E. Walsh covering excess deaths in Ireland and more.

Some of the websites mentioned:

Interesting data on the “Spanish Flu” is published by accident

[New York Times] tried to say covid was like the plague, but worse, trust us! They were trying to make the point that in 2020 the death rate in NYC skyrocketed. Seems like they don’t want to show the data after 2020, that will look very bad for the official narrative, and will reinforce the anti-vax sentiment…

However, what really attracted me to this chart is the accidental truth about the so-called “Spanish Flu” that it revealed. Spanish Flu was supposed to be the black death bigger than the black death until the current black death came along… But seems like in reality it was not a big deal. A blip, relatively speaking in comparison to the 1850’s.

Déjà vu all over again!

John Waters read a report in The Independent1Alternative archive about “an application from three Irish citizens seeking to assert their constitutional rights to a legal hearing in order to challenge the unprecedented events of the past two years in the context of what are termed ‘Covid vaccines’… Sharon Browne, David Egan and Emmanual Lavery… “

The judge’s remarks and media coverage reminded him of his own legal proceedings.

One of the most frustrating things about the case brought by Gemma O’Doherty and me in April 2020 was that we had no effective way of getting into the public realm the actual detail of what we had submitted to the court, so that a pincer movement of judge and journaliar2His term for mainstream journalists was able utterly to misrepresent the nature and content of our case, and deprive the public of its right to know what was actually being asserted. For this reason, I wish to do what I can to put into the public domain the true facts of this case, so that people can at least make up their own minds. I urge those who have even an inkling of what is happening here to do what they can to ensure that the establishment is unable to pull the same trick a second time. I accordingly request that anyone reading this who has access to social media platforms and, yes, ‘blogs’ or ‘internet sites’, or any other way of circumventing the corrupt legacy media hegemony, might consider putting this article out with all possible expedition, so as to ensure that as many people as possible come to understand what is happening here.

Reverse Engineering Propaganda

In case you weren’t paranoid enough…

In this interview, Michelle Stiles reviews some of the basic tools of propaganda, which is the topic of her book, “One Idea to Rule Them All: Reverse Engineering American Propaganda.” It’s a pertinent and apt topic in light of what’s been going on over the last few years, as we attempt to understand how we’ve been manipulated and brainwashed.

We fight against a truly unprecedented disinformation campaign, where the liars are claiming that everyone else is giving out misinformation, basically turning truth on its head.

While propaganda takes many forms, mainstream media play a crucial role. The good news is that people are starting to catch on, and trust in mainstream media has dropped to an all-time low.

By the early 1900s — literally a century ago — journalists like Upton Sinclair and George Seldes were discussing the corruption of the media, how they were owned by big business with a profit agenda, and how they were not dealing squarely with investigative reporters.

For propaganda to be effective, there needs to be central coordination of narratives, and that’s where public relations agencies come in. Few appreciate the power that these companies have. Two-thirds to 80% of the content broadcast and published by corporate media comes from public relations firms, so most of the so-called “news” is actually brainwashing propaganda.

Other common PR tools include “public protests,” which are actually made up of people hired by the PR company, and media will of course be sent there to cover it, and front groups, which are paid by industry to promote a particular view that benefits that industry.

RTE’s Claire Byrne. Shedgate? Why the silence?

Do you ever get the feeling you’ve been led up the garden path and back again? The questions surrounding Claire Byrne’s garden shed certainly indicate that all is not as it seems. Did the RTÉ presenter really present Claire Byrne Live from her garden shed at her home in Bray, Co Wicklow in March 2020….

Aside from HSE compliant Byrne looking and sounding perfectly healthy, the wood panelling behind her sleekly coiffed bob looked freshly constructed, as if newly built…

… this was the tidiest garden shed of all time. No clutter. No shivering March temperatures. No passing traffic sounds. Why not the spare room in the main house for some comfort and heat? How curious. Time passed. Byrne apparently got Covid again in April 2022… was back in the famous garden shed, not a hair out of place, the picture of health, complying with those HSE regulations with virtue signalling glee.

…Brave Byrne somehow, miraculously, struggled on and managed to broadcast a live prime-time show from her garden shed. For three weeks in a row. What a trooper. That wood panelling though, it was so similar, strikingly close, to Marty Morrissey’s shed in County Clare.  What a strange coincidence. Two RTÉ presenters with the same taste and choice in wood and carpentry.  What are the chances?…
