Untrustworthy Government
from Garner Isn't
Untrustworthy Government. Can the American people trust what their government tells them? Or what's worse, do news organizations fail their professional obligations by aligning with politicians? There are powerful people who are continually reelected to office for 30 or 40 years and are masters at manipulating the truth. These are very clever people and they hire staffers like writers, lawyers, or consultants with degrees from Harvard, or Yale, knowing how to make what is bad look good. They're masters of spin. If something is wrong they conceal the truth. They never admit to mistakes and threaten our very security. MUSIC Jerry Goldsmith, Marcelo Zarvos, Annette Hanshaw
