Here is a good example, the blog of Gianluca Freda, a guy convinced that the dramatic video of the death of Neda, the sixteen year old girl killed by the brutal repression of the Iranian regime is a fake.
For those who have not seen the video, here it is . Images are horrifying, but our anticomplottista just see the video: " The first thing I thought, of course, is that it was the millionth propaganda hoax fabricated by the secret services. The smell was very strong and staging media could not be ignored. "
Then explain its truth, spiced with anti-Americanism and anti-Jewishness (I refer only phrase" all'esilarante bale of Nazi gas chambers ").
On the blog" conspiracy pearls "a more detailed account of the offending post. Needless to say, still considers the September Eleventh attacks as the work of the CIA
etc. ... It 's a great eempio of a free information involves risks. Anybody can write anything, without any powers. Yes, I can be proved wrong but I see the crap that tend to propagate at a speed supeiore any denial.
Here I merely carried over from the blog of a beautiful phrase Mantellini Y. Benkler:
"What we know, the way we know, what we think of the world and the way we imagine it is crucial for individual freedom and political participation. The fact that so many people today can speak, and that you are grouping together in mutual citation networks, such as the blogosphere, which makes it easier for everyone be heard and to enter into a public conversation. At the same time on the net there are a lot of nonsense. But meeting this nonsense is positive. It teaches us to be skeptical, to look for cross references and more generally to find for ourselves what we need. The search for different sources is a much more engaging and independent of the search for the answer from an authority.
Despite everything, we are for freedom of speech, no one touches Freda, but when you read these things, keep well on the brain. I recommend
