This is the first time i've felt like a paranoid conspiracy theorist.

I visited cnn.com at around 6pm today and there was a new subsection related to WAR. right on the homepage, there was a section for "military matters" with several very aggressively worded articles relating to the military (surprise).

The main article claims to document an active reconnaissance mission aboard an active duty navy spy plane, but ends with a CNN anchor wondering if, in a nutshell, the confrontations with China will become much more physical in the near future. China article

This subsection of CNN was right on the homepage for a few minutes, right up until I refreshed my screen. I can't help but feel that they are actively preparing us for some kind of major conflict by making this type of discussion a central part of the national dialogue. I wouldn't have thought twice if they didn't remove it from the homepage so quickly, I have a background in marketing/market research and this is the type of tactic we use to analyze whether or not a topic has staying power and can influence key opinion leaders.
