Sean's an ugly looking twat, eh?

My experience of anything purporting to give people a voice with ickes name attached to it is that that voice is banned if it fails to sing the 'correct' tune - I am suspicious as to why only 30 days, feel that having been told for years that the media is a tool for brainwashing this is more of the same only brainwashing from a different side of the dice.

He will in all likelihood get the money but I would like to know how much he is stumping up, projected costs, accounts etc - if the 'peoples voice' is having its start up costs paid for by the people will the people see a financial return as they would usually expect? will this service be free at point of use or subscription based? will 'the people' decide content? or will it be decided by team icke?

How much say will 'advertisers' have in what content is shown?

This is just like Alex Jones, the only way to reach more people is to expand, the argument that the only way to make more money is to reach more people is to expand also, it will be intersting to see how this pans out, I hope it's not ego driven as much as Alex jones's outfit.

I hope it works out well for them. The inherent problem you have is that generally people aren't interested, you will just get people who are already interested watching it. I know from my own experience that you just cannot get people to look at stuff. They're more than happy to sit in front of the BBC and accept what's being said carte blanche, no matter how ridiculous and factually inaccurate it is. And people have been dumbed down to such a low level, they're fat, dumb and happy. If I'm in the local chippy and there are a load of people in there, they're nice people, they wouldn't hurt anyone. But are they going to sit and watch a documentary about the economic collapse of Argentina? No, they're not. They wouldn't even understand it if they did watch it.

Hand out for money again!

You don't start up a business that's going to be yours, and expect others to pay for it for you!

Old Icke always banging on about himself, "all we need is a wider audience", an audience for what David you bullshit merchant, are you going to be on tv tallking about the moon being a holographic projection, and reptiles controlling governments after Phillip and Holly in the Morning?

I don't want to be listening to some lightworker talking bollocks while i'm eating my cornflakes, it would leave me seething with anger for the rest of the afternoon.

I think WUB is right to wish them well.

Why not? They just might make a positive contribution.

Talking of "contribution", the 30 money drive does raise some very good questions as Thoreau has eloquently pointed out.

The story of Moira Stewart is one you will hear in many Television agencies throughout the world, a ruthless patriarchal regime of repression and sexual harrasment often underpinned by traditional racial and cultural prejudices..

The money seems to be pouring in....

Because if people don’t fund it then it won’t get made. When you have corporate control of every major medium then this is what you have to do to compete.

34k already, wow they must be wondering why they never did this sooner, anyone know if this will just be slicker YouTube vides or a real sat tv channel?

They need to give a slot t this guy.


Unfortunately, they might just give that slot to Eternal Spirit doing a special on Celtic Music of Germany.

I hope they can make their figure and make a good start. I do foresee problems when they have to seek advertising revenue, in practical and ethical terms.

Surely ES wouldn't show his face in public, even to regale us on how Auschwitz was actually similar to Center Parcs.

How about that as an alternative ?

Direct democracy is something I'd rather see.

Currently at .£65,854 with 27 days left.
Looks like they'll easy smash that target of £100,000.

I'm still thinking that is a pretty Spartan amount for setting up any kind of media production and broadcast outfit.

We'll see.

Somebody suggested we raise a £1000 and have this perk available....
