According to Amber Lyon, a three-time Emmy award
winning journalist, CNN is routinely paid by the US government and
foreign governments to selectively report on certain events. Furthermore, the
Obama administration pay CNN for editorial control over some of their content.
Redflagnews.com report:
Back
in March 2011, CNN sent a four person team to Bahrain to cover the Arab Spring.
Once there, the crew was the subject of extreme intimidation amongst other
things, but they were able to record some fantastic footage. As Glenn Greenwald
of the UK’s Guardian writes in his blockbuster article from September 4th 2012:
“In the segment, Lyon interviewed activists
as they explicitly described their torture at the hands of government forces,
while family members recounted their relatives’ abrupt disappearances. She
spoke with government officials justifying the imprisonment of activists. And
the segment featured harrowing video footage of regime forces shooting unarmed
demonstrators, along with the mass arrests of peaceful protesters. In sum, the
early 2011 CNN segment on Bahrain presented one of the starkest reports to date
of the brutal repression embraced by the US-backed regime.
Despite these accolades, and despite the
dangers their own journalists and their sources endured to produce it, CNN
International (CNNi) never broadcast the documentary. Even in the face of
numerous inquiries and complaints from their own employees inside CNN, it
continued to refuse to broadcast the program or even provide any explanation
for the decision. To date, this documentary has never aired on CNNi. Having
just returned from Bahrain, Lyon says she “saw first-hand that these regime
claims were lies, and I couldn’t believe CNN was making me put what I knew to
be government lies into my reporting.” Here is a segment of the Bahrain report
that Amber Lyon and her team put together. CNNi refused to allow it to air
because the Bahrain Government had paid them not to show it.
When Amber Lyon recognized the extent of the
reasoning, she challenged CNN. CNN told her to be quiet, and began to view her
as a risk. She knew, and found out, too much. Amber is now trying to tell the
story, the real story, of what is going on behind the closed doors of US Media
entities. Amber has created her own website, and additionally as noted in the
Guardian Article she is trying to share the truth of the deceptions. What Amber
Lyon describes is exactly the reason why CNN never aired the Nick Robertson
interview with Muhammed Al Zawahiri in Egypt. Amber recently did a web
interview with Alex Jones on InfoWars. Generally the TreeHouse does not
appreciate Alex Jones. He is wound up tighter than piano wire, and
unfortunately much of his truth is diminished because of the hype he places
upon it. Alex Jones is easy to disregard as a “conspiracy theorist”, not
because of what he says, but because of how he says it. Everything is desperate
and dangerous with him. That said, the words and explanations of Ms. Lyon in
the discussion/interview are poignant and vastly informative. So I share the
video with you so you can hear from Amber herself exactly what is being
described and articulated. - See more at: It is critical to listen to what she
says, not just about Bahrain but also about what the Obama administration is
specifically doing.
