John Leonard and Andrew Schlademan on Ulfkotte’s “Presstitutes”

Listen HERE

First hour: Publisher John Leonard and translator Andrew Schlademan just brought out the late Dr. Udo Ulfkotte’s whistleblowing instant-classic Presstitutes Embedded in the Pay of the CIA: A Confession from the Profession:

“Would you be surprised to learn that spies sit and write articles in newspaper editorial offices? Which are then published on op-ed pages under the names of well-known journalists? Or which journalists receive bribes for their reporting? Have you heard how prestigious ‘journalism prizes’ are a reward system for cooperation? Much as ‘Heroes of Labor’ were honored for writing the best communist propaganda in the former East bloc. Seen from the inside, the difference between journalist and propagandist isn’t as far as you might like.”

Hmm…maybe that explains the lack of journalistic interest in the real facts about 9/11, political assassinations, and so much more?
