It tells the story of the times; and it injects the telltale emotions, moods, and attitudes of that story.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size:large;\">The public swallows the tale with all its lies and omissions, and accepts the way in which the whole act is spooled out by the sound of the narrative voice.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size:large;\">The tone of the story creates a trance.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size:large;\">Different societies are vulnerable to different styles of story-telling.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size:large;\">Americans on this side of the Atlantic, listening to the radio speeches of Hitler delivered with staccato militant force, thought the German people were clearly crazy to go along.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size:large;\">It never occurred to the Americans, glued to their radios listening to President Roosevelt, that many Germans would think the sing-song pseudo-British style of the aristocratic FDR was a transparent joke.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>\u201c<span style=\"font-size:large;\">I&#8217;ll take my hypnosis on rye with mustard.\u201d \u201cI&#8217;ll have mine on a bun with mayo.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size:large;\">It&#8217;s assumed that, because Hitler and Mussolini were cementing their control through mass arrests and overt shows of force, they could get away with vocal displays of shouting and intimidation. Otherwise, the people would have turned away from them in disgust.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size:large;\">That&#8217;s not the whole picture, by any means. Large numbers of people in Germany and Italy responded enthusiastically to the voices of Hitler and Mussolini.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size:large;\">The trance they entered, as a result, wasn&#8217;t a passive narcosis. It was a kind of hysteria that demanded action.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size:large;\">If, down the road, America is put under an openly declared state of martial law, with all the bells and whistles attached, elite television anchors, like Brian Williams and Scott Pelley, will tell that story&#8212;not as Mussolini would&#8212;but as our anchors always do; in measured, \u201cresponsible, objective\u201d tones. It will be \u201cgrave and sober.\u201d The voices will suggest a dollop of alarm, but&#8230;everything is under control.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size:large;\">That&#8217;s the way modern Americans want to hear The Voice narrate the story of the times.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size:large;\">And the president of the moment? He will deploy those same tones. He won&#8217;t be standing on the balcony of a building shouting and waving his arms.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size:large;\">But the result will be the same.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size:large;\">In the wake of post-WW2 America, as the feisty combative Harry Truman exited the White House, the bland-egg Eisenhower took up residency. He was always calm and under control. He was the modest hero. He was what you&#8217;d call, in his speeches, a Grade B anchor. Not good, but not the worst.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size:large;\">At the same time, American television news was coming into being. Douglas Edwards, one of the first elite anchors, was a smoother, better-trained-for-television Eisenhower. Ed Murrow, who had been narrating the war from London, added his \u201cpregnant-with-meaning\u201d ominous tone to US news broadcasting.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size:large;\">The narrative style of the American voice was under construction.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size:large;\">Chet Huntley and David Brinkley, along with Walter Cronkite, moved in to put their ineradicable stamp on the sound of our civilization. They were a step up from Doug Edwards. They could crystallize a tight range of repressed feelings in every sentence they uttered. They were coming out of literary traditions: Hemingway, Raymond Chandler, Dashiell Hammett.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size:large;\">Tough guy with a warm edge.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size:large;\">America loved it. Those new voices enabled every kind of con, six ways from Sunday, to be visited on an adoring public. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size:large;\">Flash forward to 1968. Despite the revolution of the 60s, more than half of voting America still wanted the whitebread, big-bullshit, used-car-salesman nostalgia of the previous decade. So Richard Nixon, a man who couldn&#8217;t open his lips without lying on several simultaneous levels, waltzed into the White House.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size:large;\">After the hopeless Gerald Ford stood in for Nixon, a cartoon of a cartoon was needed; a peacemaker; a man \u201cof the cloth.\u201d Sold out to David Rockefeller down to his jockstrap, Jimmy Carter came to the presidency to heal the nation from Watergate. He was the new voice silkily twanging the American story, a respite from Nixon.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size:large;\">Then, out of Hollywood, appeared an actor who, despite a wretched history in films, could sell a cartoon of \u201cthe shining city on the hill.\u201d Ronald Reagan. America wanted a redux of the freedom story, and he supplied it, as the invasive federal government nevertheless continue to burgeon from its every rotting pore.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size:large;\">And on it went. Presidents and anchors on television conspired to deliver a two-dimensional fairy tale, in a country where an accelerated androidal conformity was beginning to dominate the landscape.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size:large;\">Television was the mutual electronic feeding trough for the Great Voices and the public. They mixed and matched and swam in convenient concert, through gray offal. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size:large;\">Talent spotters at the networks and inside the major political parties knew what to look for. They knew how the voices needed to sound. They knew the game.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size:large;\">Slightly more progressive and hip for the boomers? Bill Clinton. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size:large;\">Shit-kicker John Wayne retro? GW Bush. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size:large;\">A new interplanetary sun-god messiah? Obama. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size:large;\">A Hemingway knockoff with an edge in his voice? Dan Rather. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size:large;\">Smooth-groomed high IQ macaque? Brian Williams. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size:large;\">Might turn in his mother to the cops? Scott Pelley. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size:large;\">Drooling sad-eyed swan imported from the Morning Show? Diane Sawyer.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size:large;\">Sacrifice the mind on the altar of cosmically oozing sentimentality, tricked out as New Age news? Oprah. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size:large;\">Floating blithely in an ocean of high-level corporate-government-banking crimes, Americans can choose their favorite voice to obscure the truth and tell a very, very tall tale. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size:large;\">That&#8217;s what people want, and that&#8217;s what they get.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size:large;\">Will any of these elite voices ever upset a serious apple cart? Not on your life.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size:large;\">If America really wanted a Hitler to stand in the middle of the Rose Bowl, surrounded by perfect columns of ramrod soldiers, and lay out the next hundred years of triumph of the will, do you think the television networks would find one?<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size:large;\">Are you kidding? In a New York minute.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size:large;\">But Americans want their fascism soft-boiled. Americans want gradualism. They don&#8217;t want a coup in the middle of the night. They want to watch the leaves fall off the tree of freedom one branch at a time. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size:large;\">When the Republicans ran Mitt Romney against Barack Obama, they were banking on the premise that somehow, somewhere, the majority of the public desired a retro Wonder Bread hero. But that voice and that tone and that mood didn&#8217;t fit. It didn&#8217;t carry the day.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size:large;\">Interestingly, there was an enormous groundswell for a man who had no voice at all, in the media sense. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size:large;\">But the Republican door was firmly closed to him, because of his ideas, but also because he wasn&#8217;t a typical anchor.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size:large;\">Ron Paul.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size:large;\">You can take this to the bank. If Ron Paul ever became the voice of our times, reality itself as most people accept it would crack under their feet, and they would fall into black space screaming.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size:large;\">One reason? Paul isn&#8217;t spinning a story with the impressive rhythms and tones and segueways of a media pro. Therefore, you actually have to pay attention to the content of his words. That alone is enough to give most people strokes, blood clots, and titanic neurological chaos.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size:large;\">The US government is loathe to legislate mandatory television-news-watching to every American. It leaves that aspect of the fascist agenda to its corporate partners and their advertising agencies.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size:large;\">And little boys and girls dream of growing up and becoming finely coiffed and perfumed anchors and pundits.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size:large;\">A precious few will make it. They&#8217;ll tell tales of the adored Matrix. They&#8217;ll carve their names in the fake book of chords and melodies. They&#8217;ll stir the appropriate sentiments. They&#8217;ll deliver the news every night. They&#8217;ll present every half-cocked limited hangout and define every outrageous set of straitjacket parameters to a prepared audience.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size:large;\">You&#8217;re an aspiring anchor? Come on down. Some day you might be the chosen one. You might become the messenger, the talent turned out by the royal court, to ring the bells and sing the songs. If you&#8217;re lucky, and you sing on key, you may have five or 10 years before the next up-and-coming voice edges you out. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size:large;\">You might be assigned to bring mind control to your generation. You might be the one to obscure and conceal the real Fed Reserve, the crimes of the medical cartel, the Globalist agenda, the theft of trillions of dollars, the Collectivist framework, and the death of individual freedom. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size:large;\">Doesn&#8217;t that sound like a great job?
