Welcome to Power Trip, brought to you by the omnipotent media. Is there any greater power than the power of mass manipulation? I doubt it. We know that you have a hard time facing reality and that's why we invent a more acceptable reality for you. And when you step into this reality, you belong to us. We amuse ourselves by testing the endless limits of our power against you. Something important happens - perhaps an artist we dislike writes a sensational new song - and we have you all looking in a different direction. The city is surrounded by enemy tanks and we have you all thinking it's our own troops. The economy is in a tailspin and we have you investing in the stock market.
You want news? Just give me a few minutes to dream up a few stories. You'll swallow it all and come back for more. Are we worried about being caught lying? Who are you going to come to for the truth afterwards? Ha! Time for you worthless consumers to go out and hand over more of your money to our sponsors now. That includes you scientists and psychiatrists and power plant workers.
