Noam Chomsky - The 5 Filters of the Mass Media Machine 

Mdma...or lsd..lol

all good artists do lol

Good to see the Qatari government telling me about democracy and freedoms, all of you are morons.

Video isn't about democracy and freedom dude lol 😄

😂😂😂

Thank you

Who owns the media? Who owns the banks? Who controls the politicians? Then I ask you, who IS the common enemy?

I’m not a massive admirer of all of Chomsky’s work but he is spot on with this

We dont have to suffer! We need more people like you involved politically at the local level! Please consider looking into the workers strike back, we are trying to fight back against the private group messing up the world.

Super dystopian when you're listening to the dystopian state sponsored media of qatar try to act progressive

@@thesolantor8624 shoot the messenger if it helps you sleep better at night but there isn’t a single thing in this video that was factually incorrect and the United States takes the cake for harm done to the world via deaths under global capitalism

They way Jeremy Corbyn was treated by the media was disgusting and showed their true colours.

Same here in India 2019 general election.

2016-2020 Donald J Trump. Best president in my lifetime and the media tore into him. The previous administration spied on him with the Crossfire hurricane scandal. It is horrific what they did to him

Sadly, Jezza and John never fought the media and the establishment plants in their own party with any conviction.

@@jonathancooper4914 Ikr. Trying to create a unity cabinet was naive but so Jeremy.

Wrong. You're wrong, everyone says so. I know people, very intelligent people, they all say you're wrong, they're all talking about it.

you just don't get it, everyone knows I'm the best! they hear me talk and they say "Mr F, You are the best..." when I talk it's amazing. believe me... believe me... you're probably just a bad dude.

Maher F lol 😂 nice 👍🏽

Lol!

Yes! It's incredible. And the music and soundscapes are amazing, too!

It's great animation. It's a rare combination of voice over and graphics

I'm going to use it in my English class. We're talking about Media and Communication. Last week we talked about the functions and disfunctions of media. I'll give them some genuine input using this video and hope it generates discussion.

using engaging art to help students understand dry concepts? what a novel idea!

Chomsky has served me well too... “First world created the Third world” that one stuck. And yes preaching democracy whilst practising as a terrorist dictatorship. False flags. He’s a great man.

@@maxwatkins5166 what would be the Second world? Genuinely asking.

bit ironic that you're quoting someone else to tell people to think for themselves

@@hbaggg Lol, I guess it is! Good job.

They used to teach this in college. Now "higher-education" is all about student conformity and the university's profit.

But, we aren't experts! Shouldn't an expert be the end all be all? Common sense and all, you know? Like, I decide that a mask isn't helpful by thinking in an intelligent way on the matter, putting 2 and 2 together in a way. Looking at all the data and coming to a conclusion for myself. But many would say I am not educated enough on the efficacy of mask wearing to come to this conclusion, although I have looked into it. Now, the experts say EVERYONE should be wearing a mask, I disagree. I am not welcome in some establishments because I feel/have concluded a mask would not do any good and actually decreases my chances of being healthy to my fullest effort. Breathing out is like passing gas, deficating or urinating. I would not hinder any of these routes of disposal my body uses to purge it of toxins.

@@reasonablyabnormal1066 thank you for sharing this, I think many are feeling and experiencing the same thing, we are all still capable of not capitulating to group think 👍🏻😘

Santiago Katzenstein Chomsky is a conspiracist moron.

@@dt6822 Wow you really proved how effective this manufacturing is.

This is true and an important distinction, complicity implies some exercising of agency, as an equal, in cooperating whereas conforming is being subjugated by power, akin to Foucault and Steven Lukes' notion of power

Santiago Katzenstein ...Conformity which leads to complicity.

@@pranavraghu8251 It doesn't have to be they way you define "complicity". You can be an inferior and still be complicit in the dehumanization of another. You can even be complicit in your own suffering, if you allow it to be so.

@@gootar5045 If I was you, I would be upset at having my consent manufactured to such a degree, rather than regurgitating mainstream media talking points🤷

@@gootar5045 Very ironic considering the video's context

Alex Rodriguez Just like it did in 2016 where it "inexplicably" evaporated against an unworthy (unliked) opponent (Hillary Clinton). How could the same thing happen 4 years later against an even more unworthy opponent (Joe Biden - "Joementia")? Boggles the mind, doesn't it.

Here we go with the trianglers again. Never mind that the triangle is lies and will doom us all.. People believe in dodecahedron ways for a reason.

deschutron stop drinking the kool aid!

@@keithd.6712 I'm not. I never said I was a fan of the leading dodecahedral politicians. I'll be the first to admit they have caused us some problems, but triangle ideology is dangerous. Accepting a single point of it is the thin end of the wedge!

Triangle position has caused so many problems in past, only rich people agree with them.

What do you mean?

I sure wasted my origami diamonds on Looloo's but it was worth it

They are the propaganda machine of Qatar

A very biased media too

@@steve5024 .....like US media is neutral, lol, everybody sees things in their own benefit....many people outside western countries consider Al Jazeera as the place to get western dirty laundry......

@@neilnelson7603 lol if everybody sees things there own, Lol everybody is biased lol,so whats point of posting a video like this if this channels 'sees thins there own'. Btw Aljazeera being a channel from middle east and you being fanboy of it ever heard of them reporting or debating about christian genocide in middle east lol

@@steve5024 ....first, i amnot loyal to any media network, because i know they are all bias. But if you didnt notice Al Jazeera will always try and focus on broadcasting problems of western and Asian countries more than Middle eastern countries. On the other hand, BBC, CNN and other western media will always focus on broadcasting dirty laundry of Middle eastern countries and Eastern countries more than their own....so at the end of the day am informed cause the media houses balances one another. hope you getting what am saying now.

That's the flack, jack.

@@Shootskas You just have to say: "That's the fourth filter".

The problem is that the conspiracy scene is also full of agendas, propaganda and brainwashing. The point here is to be remain independent. Once you get sucked into a narrative or a group, you're just part of a herd. Always question everything, especially things you agree with.

​@@csanadignat8360 Conspiracy theories are not always engaged by or a formation of a bigger party, let's say, a herd, a communiy of thought, etc. You can think you're thinking individually, freely, your own way, but 2 things can happen: 1, either you're not really thinking that independently, being influenced indirectly by big narratives and discourses, or even just wanting to contrast information, with the possibility this information is false and therefore falling for the trap of propaganda, or 2, possibly, or in theory, a lot of people like you, "free-thinkers", are also thinking like you and you don't even know it, you could materially or indirectly regroup and establish certain parameters, ideas, etc, and that would be falling for the trap of the herd, the big narrative too. I think either way you can't escape being sucked up into pre-existing narratives. The point is analysing which points of the best ones of them are the most reasonable AND analytical (not only reasonable, that would be falling into the famous phrase: "it's common sense", well, maybe it ISN'T common sense, but very deeply assimilated), and, as you correctly said, CRITICAL against EVERYTHING, because as a free-thinker you could perfectly say "nationalism is good for human beings", or "morals make people happier", but that would also be falling for a very indirect trap, which are influences taken from your family, people around you,... Propaganda isn't only spread by the big powers, corporations, governments, media,... but EVERYONE and EVERYTHING. But yes, overall a good point.

trump actually abides by all these propaganda model filters lel -- particularly the common enemy.

😂😂

Al Jazeera is actually pretty good

@@kevinbeck8836 yeah, as long as it isn't Qatari issues their covering.

All media is propaganda, all media, let that sink in

If you think in terms of pol parties, the press that works for the Opposition has two options to push propaganda: 1. Make a fake story that takes down the present rulers 2. Report a true one that takes down the present rulers See how objectives are same? See how the public is not involved in the objective? So yes, think of Al Jazeera what you want but Press will inform real stories once in a while when it benefits them.

Are you a dumbass? You used All jazzer, the pro Hamas, Gaza strip Pakistani extremists apologist group. This is a Qatar run news work, state propaganda used to meddle in the US democracy. In 09' they celebrated a terroist who had murdered a child, look it up

@@roboticvenom1935 “Gaza strip Pakistani extremists” 😂 I think you just proved this videos point.

Then I hope that at least some of your students see that the very existence of the video disproves the point defended in the video.

@@oscaroscar914 This wasn't posted by a capitalist media outlet necessarily, it was posted by a Qatari government media.

@@CommunistBot What do you mean? Is Qatar not capitalist? In any case I can watch it in a capitalist country. Where is the control of content claimed by the video?

Adam Bernard The word you were looking for is 1984,actually.

The sad part is that the people who should get the message in this video will be frightened by the freaky animation.

I agree. Those people are frightened by their own shadows. It's very fitting, though. When talking about propaganda.

not to mention Al Jazeera sounds way to Muslim

Isn't it weird. This was made in 1988, but all the little cartoon characters look like little Trumps.

Butthurt much ?

@@waelwm4331 no why?

Al-Jareeza is fake news. They're just pro Pakistan and anti Israel,anti American as they can be. They're the ones empowering liberals with lunatic ideas. Democrats used to be a respectable party, now they're a laughing stock in front of the whole world. The Republicans are still sane but I'm realizing that there's also a slow shift from inside that's about to explode outside in the next few years where both parties will be so similar in their crazy ideas that the United States will implode from the inside.

@@SamN234 No, they're all fake news. They all have their political agenda and they twist the news to suit it. I find that to get real news, it's often better to listen to both sides, both left and right news medias. Through that, you'll get a sense of what really happened. Make sure you don't lose your focus though because it's easy to lose focus as their intent is to brainwash people with their rethorics. Between right leaning media's and left leaning ones I find that the left side have way more fake news and lie more often than the right sides, many times very obvious ones.

@@awakenedone7577 You think the world laughs at your Democrats and not your Republicans? You must be living in a land of make-believe, because you're definitely not from Earth.

The manga was better!

You just got Flacked!!! 😂

Someone hold Donald Trump's beer, we can get the machine to turn faster yet

Actually it's still nowhere near full capacity, the US will one day go through some serious isolation and PRK will look like heaven in comparison.

Against Andrew Yang.

Nah dude that machine is on _turbo_

It's astounding that people just blindly believe all of the negative reporting about China. Zero critical thinking, they just believe it.

The music, the animation... it's all so perfectly fitting. It's exactly the kind of imagery that goes through my head when thinking about propaganda machines and corporate profit interests over the American people. It's very Orwellian.

And the control the media exerted and still exerts in favor of the left is incredible, Trump can't say a word without getting the flack you saw them talking about, its the whole media machine against this guy, except what, Fox, and alternative internet based media.

No actually Trump creating is the flak. So you missed that point BIG time.

+Andrew Price3 _"No actually Trump creating is the flak. So you missed that point BIG time."_ One of the points of the video is that those who dissent from the media's narrative get attacked by the media and that is exactly what is happening to Trump. Just because Trump is a petty liar doesn't change that fact. For instance the media won't STFU about Russia even though it's a non-issue (like Benghazi). So someone missed the point but it's not Dan 123.

Well that's not flak. That's just the media acting through its other filters. Just as the Russia thing is put on by people in the political establishment, legitimate or not, from the Democrats and others who want to take Trump down, so was Benghazi a ploy put on by the Republican Party. Flak according to the model is when the media deviates from the propaganda line, and that can come from any side of the spectrum, but always from the political establishment. When the media criticizes Trump it's not flak.

I’d recommend reading the book.

Crazy that Putin's supporters won't even see this, not to mention understand how they were brainwashed.

And the Qatari government is made up of similar people who care about profit to the detriment of society and people.

Jesse Hughes It's much worse. Because while the Internet allows a lot of great media platforms to appear, it has 10x as much bullshit. At least with traditional media there is some kind of attention paid to accuracy and facts. Not anymore. As we've seen, this can help win elections.

Jesse Hughes Im reading Manufacturing Consent right now with the updated preface from a couple years ago. He basically said "I was proved right"

yes but with lot of BS people is overflowed, and is forced to learn critical thinking and some of them do. I think nowadays there are more free thinkers than in the 80s, even though they're still the minority.

About the corporate media today? It's still propaganda, and it's been pushing the New Cold War.

He's still alive and saying stuff, you know.

Sudhendu Pandey same here!

What are your thoughts, so far?

Changed my life when I read it back in '88. Should be required reading for High School, along with a book on reasoning.

I am from India, and hence most of what it says regarding American imperialism makes less relevance to me.. But first few chapters are generic and applies to all media (and all democracies)..

"might as well listen to Alex Jones while you're at it." You would put Chomsky in the same bracket as Alex Jones?

man did any of them respond?

"Big conspiracy" is a concept that was used to turn out communism in a place that it never would go to put itself in. And it's just because Karl Marx was a macroeconomist which achieved with great amount of work a theory that could explain the actual system, so, conspiracy is a therm that was used as a concept to ruin a theory that pretended give the people a better life to enjoy, with work and education fair for everybody.

Well it is political art. Propaganda is art meant to spread a political message. Good propaganda doesn't let you know its propaganda. That's what makes the media so effective. It is just facts and figures, either panels of people arguing. But no attention brought to who gets to ask the questions, about what facts, to what people.
