Interpretation is the end result of someone's perception of an action. A perception is a thought about an action taken. Are we the people being trained to see evil in everything/everyone? Are we the people being trained to think evil about everything/everyone? Are we the people so weak minded that: we believe everything we see and hear on television? Or on the radio? Or how about what you see in the news papers? Whose interpretations are we hearing and or seeing?
Twenty some odd years ago I went to work for a radio station here in California , I didn't stay long. I wrote some stuff about some of the good things that had occurred, it was turned down. The man in charge laughed at me and told me I'd never sell this junk anywhere, people don't want to hear the good they want excitement in their lives, bad news sells and the worse it is the better it sells. He told me the people eat it up. A confirmation of his statements to me that day was several years later when some dear friends of mine left church one evening, a woman and her adult son who was driving them home, swerved to miss a dog in the road landing their vehicle in the aqueduct killing one of my friends. The papers tried to make it sound like murder for insurance money that never existed. The son was devastated by his mother's death and then by the so called justice system and so called news media on top of everything else. People that didn't know any better condemned him a murder even after the courts were forced to free him and the news media stopped their blatant lies about the incident.
I applied several times too many different magazines and news papers as a writer and came away with the same end results. “Get as much dirt on these people that you can, blow it up bigger than life and exploit it.” How does one sleep at night after ruining someone else's life? Are we the people so desperate for evil things that we “eat it up?” Are we the people so board with life that we have to believe this “blown up larger than life” propaganda crap? Or are we all so weak minded that it never occurred to anyone that the news we listen to is rarely good but mostly bad? Yet doesn't anything good ever happen to you or around you? Has anyone even bothered to actually look for good in and around you?
The court system will cover up someone's brush with the law who takes and runs drugs and has learned to out smart the system from there on, but is quick to force a guilty plea from an innocent for a crime not committed. And the media runs with that too. Sex offenders yes there are some but not all who carry that title are guilty of the crime. You see I've been exposed to the truth about our so called justice system and so called attorneys and most of them are worthless to an innocent person. There is no money in innocence. Everything is based on the media and their response and interpretation to the outcome of a trial. I wanted to tell the media the truth but the attorneys wouldn't permit it saying it would only hurt our case. Why? The media sees only bad not good and therefore make matters even worse. The media is in the bad news business and the bigger the better therefore innocent people suffer and end up with labels they don't deserve. The court system twists words around to suite themselves and destroy others lives. After all is said and done, like with hospitals and doctor offices, now you are required by the court system to sign a piece of paper stating you decided to plead guilty freely and willingly, true or not. Your attorney will tell you that you will spend an ungodly amount of time in prison for a crime you didn't commit if you don't. Those are your true choices people. Either way you are labeled for life for a crime you didn't commit so the choice is spend time in prison also or not. Either way a person is condemned by the public for a crime not committed. All because the news media demands all accused are guilty and we the people eat it up.
Use to be, if a person felt uncomfortable about a situation that person would walk away and that would be the end of it. But then too those were days when honesty was the policy, respect was the order of the day, and people thought for themselves. Today is based on popular belief's force fed by the media's blown out of proportion half truths of destruction. The media had never been totally truthful from the day of conception. The media has always been from a one sided point of view and blown out of proportion. Look at our history if you don't believe me! We were all told at one point how General Custer was a brave man we were never told how he came into Indian camps while the Braves (young fighting men) were out hunting and literally murdered old men, women and defenseless children to gain that reputation. Who cared anyway they were just stinking red skins right? Or how about a black man was beaten to death for touching a white woman but they forgot to mention that the white woman loved that black man and in jealousy and rage brought on by the teasing of other whites around another white suitor killed the black man. Who cared anyway he was just a nigger right? Where does it end? How far will we allow the media to go with this? It hasn't changed any! The really bad guys are made out to be saints while many more of the innocent are condemned to being guilty. Where will it end?
