War ugh! What is it good for? Jacking up GE’s profits, as Ruminate This
explores:

THIS is what deregulation and media consolidation bring us: the same company that profits from war,
is the company that feeds us our news. I want you for one moment to sit back and think about how
“war news” is presented. Think about how it is marketed, and how every network has developed a
memorable meme and logo for war. They’ve even devised…da da dum…a “jingle” or tune that plays
in the background of our fear. War has become commercialized…it’s a product they’re trying to
convince us we want. War will be very profitable for some in the American media.
