I hate those title changing mods, changing the titles as they see fit according to themselves (especially that mexican asshole mod), this had one had a different title that connected it with other videos which were part of the same doc...ASSHOLE MODS.

Needless_Kane : "Television is just another tool of NWO to control the masses."

I agree but the intentions of the television at the time were not to control the masses. Overtime television became a tool for that.

Sadly.. i think the internet is about to face the same fate as the television did. Look how many ads are on TV now. It used to be about communication, now its about entertainment; and on top of that, conditioning people to a certain set of belief systems.
