WELCOME TO OUR INDEPENDENT PRESS WEBSITE

Welcome to our Independent Press website and welcome to our course on how to
build a secure news website! Our goal is to help you create your own news
website using free and secure web building tools.



Why Start Your Own Local News Website?
Throughout our nation’s history, a free and independent press has been the key
to overthrowing corrupt rulers. Our first revolution began with the courage of
newspaper writers such as Ben Franklin who understood the power of the press to
persuade people to rise up against an unjust King.



Never has there been a greater need for independent news sources than there is
today. All of the traditional news sources from newspapers to radio to
television have been taken over by wealthy multinational corporations.



Our freedom of thought, our ability to communicate and our right to free and
equal elections are all at risk due to the lack of honest, independent news
sources.



The corporate takeover of our news has also led to a dramatic decline in local
news reporting – which in turn has led to a lack of community. It has also led
to an inability to learn and share the truth about important issues affecting
all of us. Instead, we are bombarded with fear-driven propaganda by the
Information War Machine.



Nearly everything they see on TV News and nearly everything they read in
corporate newspapers are carefully crafted lies. We are like fish swimming in
increasingly polluted waters.



Thankfully, the American people are starting to catch on to this scam. Gallup
Polls used to show that two out of three people trusted the corporate media to
tell the truth. Now, after decades of lying to the public, the majority of the
American people no longer trust the corporate media.



Two out of three Americans are seeking alternative sources of information. They
are increasingly turning to independent online news websites.

Online News Websites are already the most trusted news source
In the past 10 years, Internet news websites have passed TV, radio and
newspapers as the Number One source of news. According to Pew Research, in 2024,
86% of U.S. adults say they at least sometimes get news online from a News
website (from a smartphone, computer or tablet). Over half, 55% say they often
get their news online from a news website. Only 30% say they often get their
news from a TV network. Just 10% get their news from a radio station. And only
5% get their news from a traditional print newspaper.

Every year, the shift to online news grows more apparent. It is time for a new
kind of independent media – one run not for pursuit of profit but for the
pursuit of truth and the sharing of wisdom. It is time that We the People
reclaim control over our own local news! 

Here are nine more reasons to make the effort to start your own community news
website:



Reason #1 There is a war going on between Good versus Evil… and currently Evil
is winning!



Reason #2 There is also a war going on between Freedom versus Slavery. We should
not take our freedom for granted:



Reason #3 There is also a war going on between Truth versus Lies. One of the
main reasons to start your own community news website is to help members of your
community learn the truth!



Reason #4 There is also a war going on over the future of our nation and the
future of our currency. The National Debt is now so high that we are paying more
than a trillion dollars a year just in interest payments to corrupt Wall Street
bankers.



Reason #5 There is also a war going on over the security of our elections:



Reason #6 There is also a war going on between real science and fake science. An
independent community news website can help readers learn the difference!



Reason #7 There is definitely a war going on against parents right now. You can
help parents by promoting meetings of local parents that are independent from
the insane policies of the Washington State PTA.



Reason #8 The drug corporation controlled media is waging a war against our
children by promoting the Toxic Trans agenda.



Reason #9 There is also a war against our girls and fairness in girls sports.
Just last year, a biological male won the Washington Girls State Track
Championship:



There is also a war going on in our state prohibiting gender confused kids and
requiring that their only option is to take toxic Trans Drugs:



As a result of these insane policies, Washington kids now suffer from among the
worst mental health problems of any kids in America:



The Rise of Lies
The billionaire plan to take over our government and our economy began with the
consolidation of the media and the elimination of the Fairness Doctrine in the
1980s. The Fairness Doctrine required major media sources to provide both sides
of the debate on important public issues as a condition of getting their license
to use the public airwaves.

With the loss of the Fairness Doctrine, the American people were no longer
allowed to hear or read debate from both sides on major issues. Instead, we are
only allowed to hear one side, the billionaire side of the debate, filled with
lies exactly as predicted by George Orwell in the book 1984.



Today, we are witnessing the results of decades of media domination by the
billionaires. Our elections have turned into a corrupt bribery and kickback
scheme with fake billionaire sponsored politicians who claim to be on the side
of the people but then write new laws to allow billionaires to take over our
public airwaves and get billions in illegal tax breaks.

We are forced to pay for an out of control war machine that costs ten times more
than the military spending by all the other nations of the world combined. This
is trillions of dollars that could have and should have been invested in our
young adults to provide them with the education they need to compete in the
global marketplace of ideas.

At the bottom of this entire corrupt rigged system is the billionaire controlled
media – which has managed to keep the people of the world in the dark by
diverting their attention away from this robbery and onto fake meaningless
topics like the million dollar divorces of Hollywood movie stars. Never in our
history has their been such a concentration of the media in the hands of a few
corporations controlled by a few billionaires.

Today, the majority of the public media is controlled by just 3 corporations:
Comcast (NBC & CNN), Disney (ABC & ESPN) and News Corp (FOX NEWS). Together
these three mega corporations account for $150 billion in annual revenue. Media
researcher Ben Bagdikian, has written several editions of a book called The
Media Monopoly about the danger of the media monopoly for the past three
decades. Below is a graph of his analysis of the consolidation of the number of
corporations controlling the majority of the media in the US.



Instead of having lots of choices, what people really wind up watching and
reading are the same phony marketing slogans repeated over and over again.
Consolidation of the media in the hands of a few billionaires makes it
impossible for the public to learn the truth about the corruption that destroys
our economy and our political system.



Not only has the quantity of sources plunged, but the accuracy of reporting also
dropped as experienced reporters were fired and replaced by “talking heads” that
do little more than repeat the press releases issued by their corporate masters.



The same powerful people who sit in the boards of the corporations of the
military/industrial complex, the large banks, drug companies and oil companies
also sit in the boards of the large media corporations. They have the power to
hire editors and reporters who mislead the public and fire editors and reporters
who tell the truth. Over time, this has led to the current culture of lies in
the corporate news media.

This concentration of of the news media is so complete than people who get their
information from the billionaire controlled media become brainwashed into
believing that the unemployment rate is only 5% and economic recovery is just
around the corner – when in fact, the debt level in the US is at the highest
level in history. When the fake economy crashes, what will really be around the
corner is the Second Great Depression.

How to Solve the Information War Problem
The only way to solve this Information War problem is to start winning
elections. But this will not happen until voters are better informed!



Our plan is to help voters become better informed by helping concerned citizens
learn how to start their own Community News websites all across Washington
state.



How We the People Can Reclaim the Media
It used to be that to create a fully functioning online news website required a
team of computer programmers to hand code the website on a daily basis. However,
thanks to recent improvements in a web building content management system called
Joomla, it is now possible for each of us to create and maintain our own online
news website without any knowledge of computer programming – at a cost of only a
few dollars per month! Each of us can offer the public an alternative to
corporate controlled news.

Why does online news website security matter?
Unfortunately, there is also a Technology War being waged against us. It is
certain your News website will be attacked within minutes of going online. This
is because the Internet is currently a Hacker Heaven – where hackers make
millions of dollars by hacking websites, stealing and selling data and/or
turning your News website into a Bitcoin mining machine!



The most common way hackers take over websites is by gaining access to your
Windows computer and downloading your website administrator passwords. Every
year, Windows computers suffer from hundreds of “remote access” (online)
backdoors:



To prevent these Windows hacker attacks, we show you how to create and use a
secure Linux computer for posting articles to your news website.



The second most common way hackers gain access to your news website is by
exploiting vulnerabilities in whatever tools you are using to build your news
website. The most common of these “Content Management Systems” is called
Wordpress. Unfortunately, Wordpress, like Windows suffers from hundreds of
vulnerabilities every year:



To prevent Wordpress hacker attacks, we show you how to use a more secure and
powerful Content Management System called Joomla. We teach you how to build a
secure news website where you have full control over the appearance, content and
function of your website without computer programming – simply by clicking on a
series of buttons!

A secure news website requires a secure foundation:



Use a Linux computer to create secure LibreOffice documents. Then use a Debian
VPS and the Hestia Control Panel to create a Joomla website with a Helix
template. Then use the LibreOffice Image compression tool to create secure web
images. Then use Joomla to transfer your Libre Writer article to your news
website:



In this course, we will show you how to create your own Community News website
the right way – using a series of online security tools.



You do not need to be a computer programmer. We show you how to use each of
these security tools with clear step-by-step instructions.



If you can bake a cake, you can run a secure Community News website.



During our online course sessions, we cover every step needed to create and run
a secure News website:



We also cover how to enlist community groups to help you run and expand your
Community News website:



A key component in growing your Community News website is promoting and
reporting on local community events:



If you are feed up with corruption and want to help voters become better
informed, then take our course and start your own community news website.



Creating your own news website requires a commitment of time and effort – not
only to research the content for your news website but also to learn how to
transfer that content to the Internet and display it in a well organized manner
on a secure news website.



If you are willing to put in this time and effort, we will show you how it is
done!
