Observers are concerned that a rampant virulent infection has taken hold of almost all media outlets all over the world.
Prof Ed Woodburners of the Institute of Propaganda Studies has said “We have been working for years to shape the media to report what needs reporting, but even we have been surprised at how this ‘media flu’ has taken hold.”
Dr Joseph Gerbils of the University of Misrepresentation has challenged what many are stating as fact, “We question whether there is really such a thing as ‘media flu’ at all - we actually think that what we’re seeing is a result of corporate policies being implemented behind everyone’s backs - the outcome being something which looks like one illness but is actually another. What is really happening is that powerful corporate groups – such as those controlling the energy, military, pharmaceutical and financial sectors are dictating what news media output should be.”
Symptoms of media flu include hysterical front page headlines, not naming people involved in stories being reported, purposeful exaggeration of certain features of a story (the desire caused by virus is very strong). More serious symptoms include failure to report important facts, such as legal action taken by some media figures to expose the media flu for what it really is.
A person in the street said “This media flu is very real - I’ve really noticed it since they’ve been going on and on and on about this swine flu trash - trying to scare us into getting vaccinated or take tamiflu or some such thing.”
