Is Jesse Ventura's conspiracy theory show questionable?

[Steve_A]

Hi gwangsun,

I think TruthTV is an internet based TV channel, so it is more difficult to control as most laws about television do not include web based companies.

The program in itself is mostly staged when the four people get round the table to hack things out and Jesse tells them what he wants, but that's understandable as there needs to be some objective organizing behind the scenes to make the program viewable.

We must remember that there is only so much one can put in a single TV program, so many ideas which perhaps we may think are important may be left out of the show, and the program can be followed more easily with just one or two 'major points'.

The program is not for the deep rooted conspiracy theorist as it does only skim over the surface of the subject, but I think is more geared to the newbies of the onspiracy theory ring, perhaps to stimulate them into doing ore of their own research in trying to find out the truth.

Best regards,

Steve

To be honest I have only saw one episode, (The one with Duncan O'Finioan on the Manchurian candidate) after watching the show on youtube I began to wonder why the POWERs would allow it to be aired? But as i finished the episode I noticed that it left watchers with the idea in their heads but never completely gave a definite conclusive answer. They just kept stating that "O'Finioan really believes he is a modern Manchurian candidate." I also don't like how the show is narrated, it reminds me of the horrible show Paranormal State.

So i'm wondering what everyone feels about the show. Is there some sort of reverse psychology going on, or is it a method of simply implanting the possibilities in the publics minds so that when "it hits the fan", someone could say "Its not like we didn't tell you."

What do you think?

This vid might change the way people think about Jesse. Handles himself very well up against a couple of rude punks. I give him credit for not popping this guy.

Jesse Ventura Walks Off The Opie & Anthony Show!



I certainly don't plan on watching this Opie punks show any time soon.

My feelings precisely

Unlike the Team Avalon members, all the stuff were seeing on his show is like putting your big toe in the water for those who have never been out side of the box. The main thrust of his show is to really get people asking the questions they already knew they should ask and reinforces the reason why to ask them without being calls nuts as many of us have outside of this group, so I say bring it on and good job.

As for all of Avalonins here, we already know all the issues Jesse is bringing up and way beyond due to the talent in this think tank here from all around the world, we have a great group here with tons of perspectives.

Whatever you think of his show, it;'s doing the job it was intended to do as Gungswan said , people are asking questions and there now not afraid to ask because after all it was on TV now and like it or not validated by someone we know and respect for there service. I still remember Jesse Venturas definition of gun control, Oct 1999 / USA today newspaper, full page ad- Quote " Being able to stand at 25 meters and put 2 rounds in the same hole, thats gun control ".
