Historia4.5 out of 5 stars 9
I have spent a goodly part of my life in study and research. During the last 30 years, I have read every single piece of literature on the subject of spiritualism that I could. I have accumulated one of the largest libraries in the world on psychic phenomena, spiritualism, magic, witchcraft, demonology, evil spirits, etc - some of the material going back as far as 1489. And I doubt if any one in the world has so complete a library on modern spiritualism, but nothing I ever read concerning the so-called spiritualistic phenomena has impressed me as being genuine.

Behind most major political stories in the modern era, there is an agenda - an effort by opposition researchers, spin doctors, and outside interests to destroy an idea or a person. The tactic they use is the Smear. Every day, Americans are influenced by the Smear without knowing it. Paid forces cleverly shape virtually every image you cross. Maybe you read that Donald Trump is a racist misogynist or saw someone on the news mocking the Bernie Sanders campaign. The trick of the Smear is that it is often based on some shred of truth.

A book about Propaganda fill with propaganda
Revisado: 02-10-20
I purchased this audio book thinking that it's subject matter was how both political parties in the USA use the media and fake information to try to control the minds of the masses in an attempt to gain or maintain power. The book starts out with how the Clintons controlled and manipulated the media and information. It then moves on to the Obama administration with no word of Bush. By this time I am starting to wonder about the biases of the author. I wanted a non bias book that reports on the evils of both sides. When Fox news is finally brought up it was only founded in her mind to defend against liberal disinformation. It was at this point I stopped listening and started looking at negative reviews. Apparently it never gets any better. Frankly I am a bit upset that I spent the money and time listening to a book about propaganda that is in itself pretty much just propaganda.
So here is my review of the book,
If you are a conservative Republican who wants to reinforce your world view that your party is good and the Democrats are the ones that are manipulating what we hear and see to cause the down fall of America. Then this book it for you! You will love it.
If you are am American who believes that information and news sources are being weaponized by BOTH parties to manipulate the population and are looking for a book on that subject then this is not the book for you.
