Mock News Channel, The Onion, to Help Sell Obamacare

Mock News Channel, The Onion,

will use its usual satirical approach to real world news to help sell Obamacare to the good (young) people of Illinois. Oh the irony.

Illinois partners with The Onion to push Obamacare enrollment

February 10, 2014|By Peter Frost | Tribune reporter
Illinois officials are hoping headlines like “Recently Insured Man Can’t Wait To Get Out There, Start Seriously Injuring Himself,” and “Man Without Health Insurance is Forced to Sell Action Figures to Pay Medical Bills” will bring the right blend of comedy and news to persuade more young people to sign up for new health coverage.

This is both hilarious and depressing.
Along with the action figure set called “Angry Mob”, the Kronies could serve as a great stop action video…and it just might someday.

The Kronies is, at this point, a humorous (and great) idea for action figures that are not yet completely ready for market. The characters represent the people and forces that we here at THEI call “The Controllers”. The creative bent shown in designing the characters is quite impressive. For instance, the faceless “Big G” character, representing Big Government, of course, is dressed in a suit that is red on his right side and blue on his left. As Ron Paul said when asked whether he would run as a 3rd party candidate, “I’m still looking for a second party”. Other characters are represented as big labor and big parts suppliers, working together, “Ariel Stryker”, in the form of a flying Valkyrie like character who carries air to ground missiles, banksters, and commodity price fixers. But there is an opposing force of entrepreneurs and small business owners. And a touch of Angry Mob. The promotional video they have on their site, thekronies.com is equally creative, hilarious, and simultaneously depressing. Because they nailed the nature of the situation: a de facto conspiracy among US Government, banking and insurance industries, big labor, big agriculture creating an economic police state.  Where the kreators of the Kronies got smart was making the karakcters openly konnectred and then telling the story from their side, much like the new Disney movie, Maleficent, tells the Snow White tale from the viewpoint of the evil queen, played by Angelina Jolie and looking pretty good doing it.

We at THEI wish good great things for the entrepreneurs at thekronies.com. We also recognize their full intellectual property rights and encourage them to make the Kronies a lucrative idea. If I can get my hands on both sets of action figures, The Kronies and the Angry Mob, there will be amateur stop motion video…with pyrotechinics. I may even do a new video over Conspiracy Boogie

SECRET FBI INTERROGATION MANUAL REVEALED

From Mother Jones —By  | Fri Dec. 20, 2013 3:00 AM GMT

“Security screwups are not very uncommon. But this is a first.”

In a lapse that national security experts call baffling, a high-ranking FBI agent filed a sensitive internal manual detailing the bureau’s secret interrogation procedures with the Library of Congress, where anyone with a library card can read it.

For years, the American Civil Liberties Union fought a legal battle to force the FBI to release a range of documents concerning FBI guidelines, including this one, which covers the practices agents are supposed to employ when questioning suspects. Through all this, unbeknownst to the ACLU and the FBI, the manual sat in a government archive open to the public. When the FBI finally relented and provided the ACLU a version of the interrogation guidebook last year, it was heavily redacted; entire pages were blacked out. But the version available at the Library of Congress, which a Mother Jones reporter reviewed last week, contains no redactions. . . . Read Complete Report
