For a college they put out some seriously nutter stuff. Honestly I think one or more friends punked me by signing me up for the thing. So far nobody has fessed up. I finally had to write and demand they remove me from the mailing list. I forget what the article was; just remember it jumped both the shark and a whale.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I was going to include this in my <a href=\"https:\/\/interestingauthors.com\/blog\/society\/thank-you\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">thank you to Adam Kinzinger<\/a> because it ties into the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.daily-journal.com\/opinion\/columnists\/alan-webber-is-civil-war-in-our-future\/article_08b92772-2e98-11eb-81d4-47b59e9763e6.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Kankakee Daily Journal article I pointed out to him<\/a>. Yes, my dear reader, that article jumped the shark, a whale, and three dolphin. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It was beyond irresponsible that any editorial staff would allow it to go to print. One had to be condoning the agenda. On January 6, 2021, that article ceased being a freedom of speech issue and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.realclearpolitics.com\/video\/2021\/01\/14\/wray_fbi_seeing_an_extensive_amount_of_concerning_online_chatter_about_inauguration_violence.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">became part of the investigation<\/a>. We have freedom of speech in this country thanks to the First Amendment.

It used to be called the <a href=\"https:\/\/chroniclingamerica.loc.gov\/lccn\/sn91055268\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Kankakee Republican-news<\/a>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Where is it written that a paper can call itself &#8220;news&#8221; and then print countless propaganda pieces under an &#8220;Opinion&#8221; type heading? Especially when they will have, over the course of a week, dozens of many times baseless opinion pieces pushing the far-(insert-direction-here) and only one tiny little piece on one day that, if you <em>really<\/em> stretch it could be considered reporting the &#8220;other side.&#8221; <a href=\"https:\/\/interestingauthors.com\/blog\/society\/putting-journalism-back-in-the-news\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">It&#8217;s time to regulate the news<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Now, if that paper wants to change its name to the <em>Kankakee Republican<\/em>, leaving &#8220;news,&#8221; &#8220;journal,&#8221; &#8220;times,&#8221; .etc out of the name, then sure, print whatever the Hell you want. Feel free to include some actual news. It&#8217;s fine for a paper not making any claim at &#8220;news&#8221; to have actual news in it. What is not fine is to claim to be &#8220;news&#8221; then have pages of propaganda.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Epoch News &#8211; the New Nutter Times<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" src=\"https:\/\/interestingauthors.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/nutter-times-2-1024x768.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-5456\" srcset=\"https:\/\/interestingauthors.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/nutter-times-2-1024x768.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/interestingauthors.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/nutter-times-2-300x225.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/interestingauthors.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/nutter-times-2-768x576.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/interestingauthors.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/nutter-times-2-1536x1152.jpeg 1536w, https:\/\/interestingauthors.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/nutter-times-2-2048x1536.jpeg 2048w, https:\/\/interestingauthors.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/nutter-times-2-1130x848.jpeg 1130w, https:\/\/interestingauthors.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/nutter-times-2-760x570.jpeg 760w, https:\/\/interestingauthors.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/nutter-times-2.jpeg 1920w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption>Journalism doesn&#8217;t have to tell you it is journalism<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Here is where I really need to point you back to <a href=\"https:\/\/interestingauthors.com\/blog\/society\/how-did-it-happen-pt-5\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Part 5 of <em>How Did It Happen?<\/em><\/a> I&#8217;ve worked in the advertising\/marketing world before. A big part of how something like this works is covered there. A big part of this is <a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Confirmation_bias\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Confirmation Bias<\/a>. We humans seek things to support what we want to believe. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If something tells you it is &#8220;honest journalism without any spin&#8221; and it happens to have multiple articles supporting what you want to believe, you won&#8217;t dig into whether the articles are true or if the paper really is engaged in journalism. Here&#8217;s a hint: <strong>Newspapers engaged in actual journalism don&#8217;t have to tell you<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Needed to visit &#8220;the library&#8221; and wanted a good laugh so I took it with me.

It&#8217;s hilarious. One of the judges interrupts him and asks something along the lines &#8220;So we are presenting Facebook posts as evidence of voter fraud now?&#8221; It&#8217;s just too funny to watch.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How This Works<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Again, you really need to read <a href=\"https:\/\/interestingauthors.com\/blog\/society\/how-did-it-happen-pt-5\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Part 5 of <em>How Did It Happen?<\/em><\/a> I will try to boil it down to a shot glass for you. At some level all marketing is based on a Nazi principal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\"><p>Repeat a lie often enough and it becomes the truth<\/p><cite>the NAZI Joseph Goebbels<\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p>Here is how you market anything including complete fraud, especially conspiracy theories.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\"><li><strong>Confirmation Bias<\/strong> &#8211; People will seek to confirm what they already believe.<\/li><li><strong>Effective Frequency <\/strong>&#8211; the Joseph Goebbels principal.

If you are starting to believe something you will look for things to support it. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Anchoring and Effective Frequency are how you get the unknowing to start believing something, pushing them down the path of Confirmation Bias. When they start down that path you <em>have<\/em> to provide the confirmation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The Algoritm is New<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>In today&#8217;s electronic world, we now also exploit the algorithm. You launch hundreds of conspiracy theories and other false narratives. Under the hood there exists one or more lines of SEO keyword tags linking all of the posts together. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You need high search frequency tags to pull people into one of your feeder pieces. These are the soft, tiny lies, wrapped with lots of other stuff. Your other content will then move up in the algorithms because it contains the same one or two unique search tags of your soft feeder content. The net result is that more and more conspiracy theory farther and farther from any connection with reality gets fed to the user. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Eventually the algorithm puts them in a &#8220;cone of silence&#8221; with respect to reality.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/upload.wikimedia.org\/wikipedia\/en\/9\/94\/Get_Smart-Cone-of-silence.jpg\" alt=\"\"\/><figcaption>Cone of Silence from <em>Get Smart<\/em> television series.<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Why Bother Printing?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Exactly one reason: Bathroom reading.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The one place people still reliably read print material is the bathroom.

It prints weekly and lays around. Plenty of time for people to pick up. You engage in anchoring by putting one honest-to-God true story in the middle of many fictional tales. &#8220;Well, this one was true, some of these others must be. They say they engage in journalism.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To really be effective a Nutter Times must have one of two things going for it. Be attached to a big name thing. Imprimis is connected with Hillsdale college. They issue actual degrees don&#8217;t they? <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The other way you make it effective is by making people pay for it. You can only have one for free. You really have to pay for good information like this. We don&#8217;t let just anyone have this. Read up on the <a href=\"https:\/\/corporatefinanceinstitute.com\/resources\/knowledge\/other\/bernie-madoff\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Bernie Madoff Ponzi scam<\/a>. It was only available to a select group of people. You had to be part of &#8220;the in crowd.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>What really helps is if you reject someone a few times before letting them in. That wasn&#8217;t the play here. They are phishing for people to keep in the stew now that QAnon is being shut down all over the place.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Before, during, and after the second impeachment trial of Donald Trump there will be a large scale culling of avenues for nutter conspiracy theories to reach the gullible masses. This was a desperate attempt to hang onto the gullible until new electronic channels can be developed.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Just when I thought newspapers couldn&#8217;t become any more tabloid a free copy of the Nutter Times (Epoch News) shows up in my mailbox.
