Free Press? NY Times Admits It Sends Stories To US Government For Approval Before Publication…
June 27, 2019
The New York Times casually acknowledged that it sends major scoops to the US government before publication, to make sure “national security officials” have “no concerns.”... This confirms what veteran New York Times correspondents like James Risen have said:
The American newspaper of record regularly collaborates with the US government, suppressing reporting that top officials don’t want made public.
Indeed, the Times report on the escalating American cyber attacks against Russia is attributed to “current and former [US] government officials. The neoliberal self-declared “Resistance” jumped on Trump’s reckless accusation of treason... But what was entirely overlooked was the most revealing thing in the New York Times’ statement: The newspaper of record was essentially admitting that it has a symbiotic relationship with the US government.
“Accusing the press of treason is dangerous,” the Times communications team said.
“We described the article to the government before publication.”The symbiotic relationship between the US corporate media and the government has been known for some time. American intelligence agencies play the press like a musical instrument, using it it to selectively leak information at opportune moments to push US soft power and advance Washington’s interests.
But rarely is this symbiotic relationship so casually and publicly acknowledged...
Bernstein obtained CIA documents that revealed that more than 400 American journalists in the previous 25 years had “secretly carried out assignments for the Central Intelligence Agency.”...

100 Ugandan Babies Dead – NGO Wants U.S. Missionary Prosecuted…
June 27, 2019
Missionary Renee Bach, who runs a local non-governmental organisation called Serving His Children in eastern Uganda, is being accused of representing herself as a doctor, and treating children in her care. She allegedly took children with malnutrition from local hospitals to "treat" them at her organisation - and some of them died... The two women say that they were led to believe that Renee Bach was a medical doctor and that her home was a medical facility as she was often seen wearing a white coat, a stethoscope and often administered medications to children in her care. They say they learned that Bach had no training at all in medicine after their children died. They also found out that in 2015, the District Health Officer had closed her facility and ordered her to not offer any treatment to any children.
Her non-profits' mission claims to help fight malnutrition in Uganda. Her attorney dismisses the claims as false and said there are racist undertones because she's white. Also the attorney said she was always under the supervision of a medical professional. Who to believe? Strange story.⠀Here's more from her side of the story:
