Why is the media not covering the hacking and warrant less wiretaps on American Citizens?

Many of our citizens have been victims, yet no one seems to care. Is the plot line not as sexy as the Murdoch case?

Exactly, Fox News won't even cover what's going on right now. I recall something from last week that they manipulated the story that Murdoch was being hacked similar to the Sony network bullshit.

They all watch Fox and haven't even heard of this Murdock shit, let alone what's going on here.

Most people don't care because privacy don't mean shit to them and they are only on the phone gossiping about retarded reality TV anyway. They accepted the fact they gave up privacy for a sense of security from the scary faceless terrorists.

All of our citizens are victims. All email and phone traffic is filtered and/or collected.

No it is not a sexy news story... people mostly don't want to actually think about it. They want to watch mindless TV or distraction news and propaganda so they can wave their flags and do their daily grind.

I don't agree with it but it is fact... makes me sad.

Because gay marriage is "too important".

Gay marriage is more important than the balancing the budget and climate change.

I really wish these sort of "why isn't the media reporting this" stories would fuck off and die. If your really that naive then let me break it down really easily. Big corporations most forms of media. Anything that loses money= bad and anything that can remotely gain them money= good. So to sum it up your not hearing about it because they wish to not inform the American sheople of the events in which they really already know about. Furthermore it's not that this is hidden information it's the fact that a lot of you and frankly to fuckin lazy and stupid to look it up for yourselves. It's seriously like bottle feeding a child when it comes to Americans and information, only when it is reported by some bitch behind a desk in a neat little package will people take it seriously, or maybe it most of you fucks can't read, I don't care..*walks away dramatically, then rushes back. It's like your all blind to what the world sees of you, everyone can see it how can you not...HOW?

We all know why.

Because warrantless wiretap is based on "security."

Because Murdoch owns the American media you idiot. He owns all the mainstream media. Wake up.

I'm awake and have been since the OKC bombing, these threads are meant to provoke anger.

Because they don't give a rat's ass. Let's not forget ... The New York Times sat on the fact that Bush/Cheney allowed illegal wiretaps and granted retroactive immunity for over a year.

I used to have a bit of respect for that paper.

It's not "entertainment", so few give a fuck. The opinion of most I've spoke with say yes we are screwed, but nothing we can do. Just enjoy life they say. Friggin' morons!

You can bet yer ass it would be "cyberterrorism" had it been against the corporation.

Because they NEVER HAPPENED. CONSPIRACY!!!! But really, the mainstream media is in cahoots with the ones doing the wiretapping.
