You Essay: Supply-Side Lies and the Middle Class Demise

By Jerry Straka

Over the past thirty years, ideological propaganda has supplanted honest journalism. The demise of journalistic integrity is utterly staggering. Major news outlets no longer seek truth. They seek revenue, and truth be damned. Conflict sells, so reality is purposely blurred. Honest journalism has become the first casualty of deregulation. As a former journalist with an MBA background, Jerry Straka observed this decline firsthand. A vicious pattern of deceit, an alternative reality, a false narrative, has replaced reason and truth. Paid propagandists promote the think-tank derived daily talking points with a fervor and hatred unseen in previous generations. Dissent is treated as treason and honest policy disagreements are labeled unpatriotic. Welcome HATE radio. Goodbye intellectual integrity. "I had to get away and sort it out," says Jerry. "Answers weren't coming from our leaders or supposed 'unbiased' media. So I chose reflection by exploring Glacier Park, witnessing glaciers disappear." On mountain tops and in mountain streams answers await discovery. They have for millennia. You Essay aims to change the national conversation of the media. The supply-side lie has been adhered to for decades now. Despite overwhelming evidence of the abject failures and crippling consequences of this economic policy, candidates continue to promote it. That must end. Truth must reign.
