• Presstitutes, Embedded in the Pay of the CIA: A Confession from the Profession

Udo Ulfkotte, a German journalist, reveals how he and his colleagues are corrupted and entrapped like modern-day Mockingbirds on the tentacles of paymaster CIA. The book became a best seller in Germany – then Ulfkotte died in mysterious circumstances. A small US publisher named "Tayen Lane" promised to publish an English edition – but apparently never got as far as translating it. Tayen Lane , which looks to have been a print-on-demand vanity press, is now defunct. There was considerable speculation that the translation was suppressed by the powers that be.   The original title translates to “Bought Journalists: how politicians, secret agencies and high finance steer Germany’s mass media.” This is more accurate than  "Embedded in the Pay of the CIA," which is a quick caricature. There was no need to slip payoff envelopes to newsmen. They get the bribe in their regular paycheck. The entire system is not only bought, it was installed by the U.S. during the Occupation after WW2. Ulfkotte hammers away at the corruption of Elite Organizations and Media, which set the tone and the rules of the game for the puppets who pen their pieces of the program.

Summary:

Udo Ulfkotte’s amazing book.. a sensation and sold 1,500,000 copies in Germany, but no major US publisher would bring out an English translation… Ulfkotte’s book destroys the illusion/delusion that there is anywhere in the Western world an independent press… Journalists serve as propagandists and public relations agents for intelligence agencies, businesses, lobbying organizations, politicians, and US foreign policy…. journalists are recruited when they are still students… All from the lowest reporter to the highest editor to the owners of the news organization are caught up in enabling the elites to control the explanations…. Incestuous relationships between journalists, intelligence agencies, businesses, politicians, and US foreign policy aims are so pervasive that no one thinks anything of it.... With the Western media suborned, democracy and accountable government are not possible. Making this clear is Ulfkotte’s contribution.

Highlights of the book

Why all the fake news? In Presstitutes, a high-level whistleblower finally comes forward and exposes the corruption of the Western media. Udo Ulfkotte explains how journalists have to play along with the elite agenda to cover the news, to get scoops, perks, and to keep their jobs. After 17 years as foreign correspondent for Germany’s newspaper of record, Ulfkotte was fed up. He devoted his last years to exposing the treasonous lies, war propaganda, and subversive paternalism of our quasi-Stasi totalitarian media.

● Ulfkotte was about as mainstream as it gets, writing for the Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung and other big publishers for two decades. His book was 18 months on the bestseller list in Germany.

● He uses personal examples from his own career to illustrate all of the following points, from his recruitment at university, placement at the FAZ with no experience, and how intelligence officers vetted his information, even feeding him finished stories for him to sign his name to.

● He details how the system of bribery works in journalism, rewarding the obedient and filtering out the non-compliant.

● The lockstep media are synchronized and servile, with the same stories copied across the spectrum to drill us in current political agendas, rather than original reporting.

● Ulfkotte names the big names in the German media, with their personal connections to top politicians and affiliations with “transatlantic” organizations.

● U.S. control of German politicians, finance and media began in 1945, as a prop for the occupation; this Pax Americana holds sway over much of the planet.

● The German media were mustered to introduce the euro, expand the EU eastward and welcome millions of "refugees," in order to finish the job of destroying German cultural and national identity.

● The author encourages us to shut them down by withdrawing our support from the MSM, and giving it to honest, hard-working independent journalists.

● Finally, this is a guide and a warning to future generations of journalists not to make the same mistakes the author did, which eventually cost him his life, but luckily not his soul.

It’s widely believed that the CIA attempted to suppress this eagerly awaited English edition by buying the rights to it through a front company, which never published it. Many observers also suspect foul play in the author’s tragic death three years ago, at the age of 57. In Ulfkotte’s absence, the translator and publisher are giving interviews about his story.
