9/11 conspiracy theorists suggest that the liberal media is
controlled by corporations and that this is why 9/11 conspiracy
theories have not taken hold. They call these puppet masters the
"Left GateKeepers".
The reason that the media on the left does not believe that 9/11 was
created or perpetrated by the government is simply that there is no
credible evidence to support such allegations. The suggestion that
there is a massive cabal of people on the left who would allow the
mass murder of 3000 people to go uninvestigated and unreported is
simply a desperate attempt at rationalization by conspiracy
theorists to try to explain why their movement has come to a halt in
the liberal media. The reality is that those they accuse of being
Left GateKeepers are actually just
Left SanePeople.
If you are looking for motives for one side or another to lie, you
need look no further than the new radio listeners Alex Jones enjoys,
conspiracy book sales, web site donations and political
contributions. There is also the benefit to at least one democrat
(Robert Bowman) who was asking for donations of 100 dollars per
conspiracy theorist at a recent gathering show on C-Span. At the
same conspiracy theorist gathering, third parties like Libertarian
and Green parties used the event to ask for donations. They may
argue that they need money to win the election so they can launch an
investigation but nevertheless, it's still a motive to lie. People
are sending local candidates money from around the country.
Some prominent members of the movement have many books on the
subject. Most are collections of half truths which the authors hope
no one will bother to check into.
It
seems that all of
the “leaders” of the
conspiracy theorists are collecting quite a bit of
“loose change" from this horrible
event.
Where would they be if it weren't for their take on 9/11? Where
would the three young creators of loose change be? What about Alex
Jones? How much more mileage would he get from his JFK,
Grassy Knoll conspiracy theory? They point to how much money
Halliburton has made but how much, as the leaders of the so called
"truth" movement, have these “leaders” made?
It's unfair to think the media on the left is conspiring to cover up
the mass murder of 3000 people, all for money, while not considering
the money made by the perpetuation of these theories.
