Why are propagandists unable to comprehend parody?
April 28, 2007 in Media
by Jay Stevens
What is it about ideologically-controlled media and humor impairment? Is it something about sucking up to power that renders propagandists immune to satire? Why else would a media outlet report parody as truth?
No, no, I’m not talking about the time a Beijing newspaper reprinted a story from the Onion.
I’m talking about a news channel a little closer to home.
