Summary:
You’ve seen it all before. A harmful on the web rumor costs an organization millions. A political sideshow derails the national news cycle and destroys a candidate. Some product or superstar zooms from total obscurity to viral sensation. What you have no idea is that somebody is responsible for all this. Usually, somebody like me.
I’m a mass media manipulator. In a global where sites control and distort the news headlines, my job is to control blogs-as much as any one person can.
In the current culture…
1) Websites like about BELIEVE ME, I’m Laying: Confessions of the Media Manipulator Gawker, Buzzfeed and the Huffington Post travel the media plan.
2) Bloggers are slaves to cash, technology, and deadlines.
3) Manipulators wield these levers to shape everything you browse, see and watch-online and off.

I’m tugging back the curtain because I don’t desire anyone else to get blindsided.
