Here's something that I saw today that is very interesting. The main premise is the notion that the role of the mainstream media is not to offer objective information to citizens but to defend the established political, economic and social order through diverse effective means such as propaganda, disinformation and censorship and that the role of the alternative media is to build a wall against the manipulation of reality.
It looks at Cuba, which it says is the "textbook case that should be studied at any center for the research of disinformation, because it has reached an unimaginable level of sophistication."
It criticizes "the enormous difference between the ideological representation spread by the Western media and the reality inside the country," claiming that the mainstream media's "toxicity toward the Cuban problem is so effective that it has contaminated even the most progressive sectors of the developed world."
