Biased Wexford Media fake opinion piece

This blog was disgusted to read another "public opinion" in a local newspaper this week, to find the results were one hundred percent in favour of the paper, and the current government's view of how this country should run. The piece in question asked eight "random" people did they think that social employment was a good idea. Of course none of them voiced any concern that the governments latest ill thought out venture , but all weighted in unanimously behind the plan.

I mean how could anyone not trusts the plans of a government that brought us the HSE and NAMA?
One woman even said that it would give the unemployed an incentive to go out and find work!
Where exactly Mrs. Random? Oh yeah, America.... Australia....England. Emigrate and find work serfs, because your the ones who caused the recession. Forget about all that income tax you paid during the Tiger years. That's doesn't matter now. The government and their friends in the media need someone to blame, and guess who's getting it? YOU!

Watch the papers and news in the lead up to the coming "doomsday" budget. Watch out for the headlines. "Unemployed will have to work for their dole" "Sounds reasonable, gives them an incentive to find work" Government borrowing record amounts to pay unemployed "Those pesky buggers. Why cant they get a job?" Government applauded by EU for handling of financial crisis, but efforts hampered by unemployed "They're the ones to blame for the whole thing, bloody unemployed!"
Yes, don't blame the greedy bankers or incompetent heads of our civil service, or even the worst government that has ever led a civilised nation.
No, blame it on the unemployed. "Then the people wont get upset when we cut their benefits to shreds in the next budget"
Would the media lie to you?
We were led to believe that the shell to sea protesters in Rossport were lunatics despite it being a proven fact that they were ordinary people trying to protect their community. Tony O' Reilly used his media arsenal to colour the people of Ireland's perception of these campaigners because he owns his own off shore assets, and fears victory for the shell to sea campaign will cost him.

But lets go back to Mrs. Random who says that the unemployed need an incentive to go out and look for work, in a country where over a thousand people applied for three jobs in a new cinema. Maybe if this woman rose her head above the TV/Radio?Papers propaganda curtain that holds so many of our citizens in a limbo of lies, she might see that her friends and neighbours who have lost their jobs are not lazy bums conspiring to feed off the state, but the actual people who worked hard during the Tiger years, paying high taxes that made Bertie Aherns Fianna Fail government the richest in the history of the state, and one of the wealthiest in the world.
How did they spend this money?
After looking after their friends in the golden circle, they squandered what little was left . Now they are borrowing money, not to pay our unemployed who have already more than contributed to this state during the good times, and will so again under a change of management, but to bail out failed banks.
If Mrs. Random could just break through the veil of lies for one moment, she might see that it wasn't those who are now suffering on welfare who caused the recession, but those who were in charge of the things that we took for granted, our banks, our big Businesses, our media and our government.

The next time our local media decide to run their totally impartial opinion piece, maybe they'll make Mrs Random take her head out of her arse before she answers the question. And maybe they'll print the many answers we know they received that didn't agree with their own views.
