As many of you know, besides the theft of AdSense "partners" by Google, Inc., my site's earnings have been ravaged by Google's Orwellian KnowledgeVault and it appears that it may have been singled out for destruction by the "committee" which UK PM David Cameron vowed to form, during his UN address last September, where he declared that online "peddlers" of "poisonous" ideas, such as those that question the official 9/11 report, should be "taken out."
http://www.forbiddenknowledgetv.com/vid ... meron.html
For five years, I've been able to explore and share alternative views with my many subscribers free of any charge, because my publication was subsidized by Google Ads. However, there has been a suddenly, dizzying drop in my site's ad revenue, down to 1/5th of what it had been for nearly 5 years, which doesn't even pay for my basic overhead.
This drop in payment is based on Google's reports of my page views, which are either wittingly or unwittingly false, as Google's numbers are half those of the views reported by my mass emailer, who only report on pageviews from those who subscribe to the newsletter but not on the much larger body of viewers who arrive on my pages, due to search results.
Several other alternative media sites are having similar experiences.
One of them is designing a new search engine, which does the opposite of what Google's new algorithms do: the first of its kind, GoodGopher.com filters out corporate propaganda and government disinfo!
Mike Adams, from NaturalNews.com is developing GoodGopher, to build the Internet's largest search engine for those searching for information and news on liberty, natural healing, central banks, food freedom, advanced science and a multitude of other topics no longer allowed in NSA-controlled search engines.
Still in Beta testing, here is their promotional video.

Establishment Media Declares War On Their Competition As “Fake News”
http://www.blacklistednews.com/Establis ... 8/Y/M.html
Published: November 15, 2016
The establishment media is dying. This is not a biased view coming from “alternative media,” it is a fact borne out by metrics and opinion polls from within the establishment itself. It was true before the recent election, and is guaranteed to accelerate after their shameless defense of non-reality which refused to accept any discontent among the American population with standard politics.
Now, with egg on their face after the botched election coverage, and a wobbling uncertainty about how they can maintain multiple threads of a narrative so fundamentally disproven, they appear to be resorting to their nuclear option: a full shut down of dissent.
Voices within independent media have been chronicling the signposts toward full-on censorship as sites have encountered everything from excessive copyright infringement accusations, to de-monetization, to the open admission by advertising giants that certain images would not be tolerated.
However, until now these efforts have appeared random, haphazard, and rife with retractions and restorations of targeted sites and content. A massive backlash of reader outrage toward these restrictive measures has confirmed that most consumers don’t like the idea of being given boundaries to their intellectual freedom.

Re: Truth Suppression
abc.com.co ISN'T a real news site.
It's a site that mirrors another better known legit news site.
People were clicking on and sharing these 'news sites' on FB and Twitter.
That's a problem for a democracy when people aren't smart enough to confirm the news they spread to others.

The Top Ten Under-Reported News Stories of 2016
http://www.globalresearch.ca/the-top-te ... 16/5566419
By Neil Clark
Global Research, January 04, 2017
Sputnik 3 January 2017
What would George Orwell have made of 2016? Some of the biggest news stories of the year, promoted by pro-Establishment media, were either false, such as the claims made in December that a ‘Holocaust’ was taking place in eastern Aleppo, or not backed up by any hard evidence, such as the allegations that Russia interfered in the US election.
Ironically, these stories were pushed most aggressively by media outlets that expressed the most concern about ‘fake news’ and the urgent need to take action against it!
At the same time some very important real news was either ignored altogether — or given only the scantiest coverage.
Here are ten of the biggest under-reported news stories of 2016. I’ll leave you to come to your own conclusions as to why they didn’t get the coverage they should have.
The War in Yemen
While Syria made the front pages, the US-backed war in Yemen received nowhere near the same attention.
Documented atrocities carried out by the Saudi-led coalition have been largely ignored. British Blairite MPs, so keen to show their concern about a non-existent ‘Holocaust’ in Aleppo in December, failed to support a Labour motion — calling for an independent UN investigation into violations of international law in Yemen, in October.
And the ‘Something Must be Done’ media brigade weren’t too interested either. “Since the rejection of the motion, ‘Do something!’ crusaders like Aaronovitch, Freedland and Cohen have printed not a word about ‘our’ ‘responsibility to protect’ civilian life in Yemen,” noted Media Lens on 3rd November.
Libya in Ruins
In early 2011, Libya was ‘the’ big news story as concerned ‘liberal interventionists’ urged NATO to enforce ‘no-fly zones’ to stop the “New Hitler Colonel Gaddafi.”
The son of a retired Libyan academic who spoke out against Muammar Gaddafi’s regime says he fears the worst for his father and three of his brothers after they were “killing his own people” and carrying out “a Srebrenica-style massacre in Benghazi.”
Well, NATO did intervene and Libya was destroyed. And guess what? The ‘Do Something’ crusaders in the western media are silent. The transformation of the country which had the highest standards of living in Africa into a terrorist-ridden “failed state” is not deemed to be newsworthy. In the words of Leslie Nielsen in the film Naked Gun, it’s a case of: “Nothing to see here- please disperse!”
Reconciliation in Syria
Good news from Syria doesn’t get much, if any coverage- particularly if it shows the Syrian authorities in a positive light. But the Syrian government has implemented truce and reconciliation programs in and around Homs and Damascus and in other parts of the country too.
In July, President Assad offered an amnesty to antigovernment ‘rebels’ laying down their arms — and this was repeated in October.
Many rebels have taken up the offer and resumed their lives as civilians. The fact that reconciliation was underway in Syria should have been a big news story in 2016, but — surprise, surprise — given the pro regime-change bias of much of the media, it wasn’t.
62 People Owning Half of the World’s Wealth
Yes, that’s right — 62. Surely this is something news channels should have been giving major coverage to in 2016?
Surely Oxfam’s Davos report should have kicked off debates about how the world’s economy needs to be restructured in order to make the distribution of wealth more equitable? But the story didn’t have legs.
How very convenient for the 62 people!
The Exoneration of Slobodan Milosevic
In 2016, the man who neocons and Blairites labeled “the Butcher of the Balkans” and whose “genocidal crimes” were used to promote the globalist doctrine of “liberal interventionism” was effectively declared “not guilty,” by the very court which tried him.
As I wrote in August:
The exoneration of the western elite’s number one bogeyman of the late 90s did make front page news in Serbia, but in the western MSM the news was ignored, and those, like Andy Wilcoxson, John Pilger and myself, who did dare to write about it, were subject to vicious personal attacks by Establishment gatekeepers.
Rather like Sherlock Holmes’ dog that didn’t bark in the night-time, the non-coverage of this very important story told us everything we needed to know.
Global Warming: Another Record-Breaking Year for Temperatures
2016, according to the UN, is “very likely” to be the warmest year on record — meaning that 16 of the 17 hottest years on record will have been in the 21st century. In July, NASA revealed that each month from January to June in 2016 had been the warmest respective month globally — since modern temperature records began in 1880.

@ianbremmer Moreover, Assad is being astonishingly lenient. Most of the “rebels” captured have been given amnesty straight-away @manosiat — Stavros Hadjiyiannis (@StavrosHadjiyia) November 30, 2016

The exoneration of a man accused of genocide made no headlines this month. Neither the BBC nor CNN covered it… https://t.co/x2RIM1SAQe — John Pilger (@johnpilger) August 23, 2016
As I wrote in August:
“The ICTY’s [International Criminal Tribunal for the former Yugoslavia] conclusion, that one of the most demonized figures of the modern era was innocent of the most heinous crimes he was accused of, really should have made headlines across the world. But it hasn’t. Even the ICTY buried it, deep in its 2,590 page verdict in the trial of Bosnian Serb leader Radovan Karadzic who was convicted in March of genocide (at Srebrenica), war crimes and crimes against humanity.”
The exoneration of the western elite’s number one bogeyman of the late 90s did make front page news in Serbia, but in the western MSM the news was ignored, and those, like Andy Wilcoxson, John Pilger and myself, who did dare to write about it, were subject to vicious personal attacks by Establishment gatekeepers.
