Cathartic & Comprehensive OverView of ' Message ' of Integration Revealed by GannonScandal
What's Going On Here? Why Does This matter??....,Oh, Just UNhealthy BigGov/BigPress concentration and collaboration in a DisInfo campaign directed at American citizens!, scandalously using manufactured-reporters and manufactured news, restricting growth and change, as an inevitable becoming frustrating, sinister and not allowable, cuz! - restricting InFo and 'spinning' insults & insulates Americans from reality and new tomorrow's.

This story is, in addition a hopeful, healing, holoGraphic look at the issues of concentrated wealth/media, concentration of facts, Public Right to Know concerns, new Citizen-Media surveillance, Gov accountability, Press credibility, homophobia, bigotry, blackmail, payola & UnderMining democratic consent by masterMinDinG artificially mis-created fantasy groupthink, demographic SuperOrganisms.
it is said the 3 top money-industries are oil, arms and drugs, it's time to ask the '4th estate' if we should add a 4th..., sex.
STILL,.. it's also about this!..., ancient, archetypal, 'holding pattern' because of Individual & Collective, UNre-solved, UNconscious, impulses, conflicts and repression, but Historic chance & challenge for Awkening, Redeeming & UNiting CUZ amazingly...,
It's a gesture from the Universe, beckoning us, demanding us to integrate it and thereby receive its
