PLEASE NOTE: I have started a new page where I will be adding predictions as I receive them. I plan to update this link regularly when I receive further one off predictions. You will find the link, along with other important previous Blogs, at the end of this Blog.
When we listen to or watch programs on Free To Air radio, TV or social media, how do those companies make money?
The advertisers pay to promote their products on media network at a cost that varies depending on the media outlet that gets the most views.
At peak times, such as major sports and seasonal special events, the media outlet can treble the cost to advertisers because of the larger crowds the events draw.
Originally such outlets, magazines and news papers competed with each other for the advertising dollar. Then came radio, TV and mail box drops.
Since then has come the increases in competitors such as cable, movies on line, social media, and other advertising outlets.
As social media increased in numbers of members, so too did the reachable audience for advertisers.
However, companies willing to promote their goods and services via these media outlets still only had the same amount of advertising dollar for almost ten times the advertising outlets. The more the outlets, the less their product is promoted across the board.
Social media companies initially encouraged comment and feed back from the general public, and it wasn’t long before that feedback soon became complaints and criticisms of the very advertisers who had, and were, financially supported these social media companies.
As the money social media companies make from advertisers far outweighs what they would make if they were to charge for membership to their sites, something had to give.
Media companies proceeded to change their rules to accommodate their advertisers.
The first step was to reduce feedback, so that complaints and customer dissatisfaction of products was limited or totally stopped. Letters to the editor and people’s opinions columns have ceased to exist in most countries of the world.
If you can find one in main stream media, please let me know.
Up to the time of the internet, world wide web and social media, individual countries had their specific rules for print, TV and radio media, and those rules basically separated fact from fiction, especially when it came to media claiming to be news sources.
When America introduced the WWW systems, social media and on line news services, they were introduced under the American systems, laws and constitution.
It took other world’s governments totally unprepared. So much so, even today, many countries do not have specific laws relating to news and public opinion on the World Wide Web.
They have simply adopted the US media, freedom of speech and constitutional laws and hoped for the best.
The US has freedom of speech enshrined in their Constitution under their First Amendment. That freedom does not exist in all the constitutions of the countries that tolerate social media and so what can be a freedom of speech matter in the US, could be cause for someone being sued in say Australia or UK.
Cases of people lying or deliberately telling mistruths run the risk of being sued in American courts, however for that to happen, the accuser would want to have a wad of money to first fly to the US, then set up legal council, book time in court and finally face the accused with no guarantee the court will side in their favour.
It is because of this overriding of world laws, concerning the Web, that lies have become more prevalent that the truth on most social media outlets.
And this is where Russia has excelled themselves. Fake news may not have been their invention, but it sure became their most powerful tool.
The catch is, what is possible in a reverse scenario.
A media companies based in countries other than the US, must abide by the laws of their own country.
So if they speak freely, even on social media as a media company, they can be sued, by their own country’s laws, and in some instances, also by American laws.
It has become a media minefield.
So fake and misleading news, including in the mainstream US media, can make outrageous claims and not be sued, yet if a non aligned Murdoch Australian media company, for example, were to print the same they’d be sued.
Why specifically Murdoch?
Ex Australian Murdoch is an American citizen who has worked his way through this minefield to his own advantage, and in most cases, to the detriment of his less powerful competitors.
He totally owns, has large ownership of or influences over, most world TV, radio and print media. Basically, he is too large to sue.
The mighty dollar is his god and he serves it well. You could say his corporation is his place of worship.
Being both American and having control over the world media, he can get around most laws of the world’s governments, simply by re printing that which is printed in his American outlets as quotes from his American owned media:
For example, he can broadcast an opinion that’s anything but news, on his Fox News Network in the US and pass American laws.
He can then quote that story as news in any of his world outlets thus:
“It was quoted in US Fox News today that ….”
Not only does he legally bypass laws of other nations, he also reduces the cost of reporters in those countries, because the news has already been prepared in his US outlets.
So what does this all mean for the average social media user outside of the US?
Good question.
Most of us would not be considered worthwhile for Murdoch, American companies or US media generally to sue. However, those that collectively rally in opposition to what may be a false presentation of public matters, do run a risk of heading to a court in their own country if they break a law they may not know exists. Particularly if they assume American laws and their own country’s laws are the same.
So as we move into this New Age of Aquarius, you can be assured that one of the many areas to be ripped wide open, exposed and the cause for heads to roll, will definitely be the media, and the laws that let them get away with it for so long.
