   There are thousands of media organisations worldwide, many of which   
   are entirely independent and those that aren't work for a vast number   
   of different interests. No government has exclusive control of 'its   
   own mass media' to feed to its people, especially not in relatively   
   free societies. As for blaming 'on another party', that approach would   
   have to bear scrutiny for years with the seeming active co-operation   
   of the 'other party' in the case of Al Qaeda, most of whose activities   
   are actually in the Middle East.   
      
   As for the government cabal business, I know at least some of the   
   people in the UK political process.
