Capetown, South Africa (13 January 2011): Radical Honesty SA Questions to V&A Waterfront Spokesperson Ms. Emma King, about ‘Public Relations Censorship & Deception’ of Crime and White Genocide in SA, by the South African Media

Radical Honesty SA Questions to V&A Waterfront Spokesperson Ms. Emma King, about ‘Public Relations Censorship & Deception’ of Crime in SA, by the South African Media Radical Honesty SA contacted the V&A Waterfront to speak to their Spokesperson Ms. Emma King, after reading the news article: WATERFRONT CONFISCATES HATE FLYERS: Pamphlets targeting V & A tourists tell of ‘white genocide’ on former Sunday Times journalist, Adriana Stuijt’s blog: Censorbugbear: Boer-Genocide Protests: Paris, Cape Town, Randburg.

The V&A receptionist informed Radical Honesty SA, of Ms. King’s cell phone number. When asked for a landline number, the receptionist said she did not have the landline number, but Ms. King works for the company known as Corporate Image, and can be contacted there.

Corporate Image is a public affairs company with a particular focus on corporate communications, media liaison, crisis communication and issues management. Reputation management and corporate brand strategy are the two areas where the company enjoys special expertise. The company has been extensively involved over the years with the corporate, financial and industrial sectors.

Corporate Image has completed successful bids including five gambling licence applications and has also conducted successful JSE listings, crisis communications, investment issues, major corporate image re-vamps, and employee programmes ranging from transformation to share schemes.

Radical Honesty SA telephoned Ms. King at her Corporate Image offices, and asked her whether she would be willing to answer some questions about the article in the Cape Argus. She said she had ten minutes available and would do so.

The issue being covered by Radical Honesty SA, was: SA media’s Edward Bernaysian Propaganda driven Public Relations Censorship & Deception of Crime and TRC fraud issues of public interest, from the people of SA, and foreign tourists.

 

Q: Who is Edward Bernays? A: The Father of Public Relations Propaganda:

In his award winning 2002 documentary for the BBC, The Century of the Self, Adam Curtis describes how Sigmund Freud’s family (particularly his nephew Edward Bernays, known as the Father of Propaganda), exerted a surprising amount of influence on the way corporations and governments throughout the‭ ‬20th century have used Freuds theories to psychologically engineer and manipulate citizens into the false illusionary belief that the power is finally in their hands, that they live in a ‘democracy’; that they are in charge, while their sense of identity has been subconsciously manipulated from that of citizen to consumer, fueling the massive growth of the mass-consumer society, and the corporatist Orwellian dictatorship.

In The War You Don’t See John Pilger traces the motivations for media censorship back to the father of public relations: Edward Bernays, the nephew of Sigmund Freud. See also his article: The black art of news management.

In The Persuaders Douglass Rushkoff of PBS explore’s what’s going on in today’s marketers and advertising businesses; how the Public Relations industry has been given the responsibility to maintain the entire system of meaning. What are the new and surprising methods the PR industry is using to decipher who citizens are and what they want and how to manipulate them? How the study of cults was adapted to marketing brands, to manipulate a brand’s consumers into blind consumer obedience, in the same way cults manipulate their cult followers, and what the future holds.

In Bernays’s 1928 book Propaganda, he described the conspiracy of manipulating the public with ‘public relations news’ to behave as psychologically insecure, dumbed-down, automatonic zombie consumers, instead of educating them to be rational self-sufficient ecologically responsible citizens, as follows:

The conscious and intelligent manipulation of the organized habits and opinions of the masses is an important element in democratic society. Those who manipulate this unseen mechanism of society constitute an invisible government which is the true ruling power of our country. We are governed, our minds are molded, our tastes formed, our ideas suggested, largely by men we have never heard of. This is a logical result of the way in which our democratic society is organized. Vast numbers of human beings must cooperate in this manner if they are to live together as a smoothly functioning society.”

 

Interview with Ms. Emma King, of Corporate Image; Spokesperson of V&A Waterfront

Ms. King answered the first three Radical Honesty questions:

  1. Sally Petersen considered the pamphlets to be ‘racist’, correct?
  2. Is it possible Sally Petersen considers the pamphlets to be ‘racist’, because she has not been informed by the SA media of the realities that are being depicted in the Pamphlets?
  3. The pamphlets accuse the SA media of covering up the issue, correct?

At the fourth question, which began the Survey to determine V&A Waterfronts perspective to whether Media Censorship of issues in the public interest, exist in SA?, Ms. King did not want to answer the questions:

  1. A Radical Honesty SA Amicus Curiae was filed before the Constitutional Court, on 18 July 2010, supported by the expert witness affidavits of among others Dr. Brad Blanton, a former candidate for United States Congress in 2004 and 2006, and a world expert on honesty and sincere forgiveness, who accuses the Truth and Reconciliation commission of TRC fraud?
  2. Have the SA media informed the SA public that 48 hours after being legally served with the aforementioned Radical Honesty SA Amicus Curiae alleging fraud, Archbishop Tutu announced his retirement?

Ms. King could not understand the relevance of these questions, and she was not willing to conduct the survey, so it was decided that the full list of questions would be emailed to her, for her written response.

 

Transcript: Radical Honesty SA Questions to V&A Waterfront: ‘Public Relations Censorship & Deception’ of Crime in SA, by SA Media.

Letter was copied to the British and Swedish Hindocha and Dewani families, who were carjacked in Capetown in December 2010 on their tourist honeymoon, while staying at the V&A Waterfront. Ms. Dewani was murdered.

Overview: SA media’s Edward Bernaysian Propaganda driven Public Relations Censorship & Deception of Crime and TRC fraud issues of public interest, from the people of SA, and foreign tourists.

Questions:

  1. Sally Petersen, the person who originally saw the flyers, considered the pamphlets to be ‘racist’, correct?
  2. Is it possible Sally Petersen considers the pamphlets to be ‘racist’, because she has not been informed by the SA media of the realities that are being depicted in the Pamphlets?
  3. The pamphlets accuse the SA media of covering up the ‘white genocide’ issue, correct?.
  4. Do you think the SA media inform the SA public of the truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth, about reality in South Africa, or do the media have agenda’s to censor particular information from the SA public, even if it is in the public’s interest.

Survey: Does Media Censorship of issues in the public interest, exist in SA?: Are you aware of the following information in the public’s interest, as informed to you by the SA Media?

  1. A Radical Honesty SA Amicus Curiae was filed before the Constitutional Court, on 18 July 2010, supported by the expert witness affidavits of among others Dr. Brad Blanton, a former candidate for United States Congress in 2004 and 2006, and a world expert on honesty and sincere forgiveness, who accuses the Truth and Reconciliation commission of TRC fraud?
  2. Have the SA media informed the SA public that 48 hours after being legally served with the aforementioned Radical Honesty SA Amicus Curiae alleging fraud, Archbishop Tutu announced his retirement?
  3. Have the SA media informed the SA public that the General Secretariat Parliamentary Services Office of Hansheiri Inderkum, President of the Council of States, have requested the Boer Volkstaat Theses Petition and Briefing Paper, to be submitted to the Swiss Embassy in Pretoria, to be forwarded to the Committee for Legal Affairs of the Swiss Parliament, for their legal enquiry?
  4. Have the SA media informed the SA public that a Radical Honesty SA application has been filed with the Constitutional Court, against 88 corporate media publications, and their editors, and various University media professors, for deliberately censoring TRC fraud allegations and evidence from the SA public?
  5. Have the SA media informed the SA public of the Radical Honesty SA Open letter written to the Dewanie and Hindocha families, which informs the families why Shrien Dewani will not be able to get a fair trial in South Africa?

Conclusions, Analysis and Interpretations from ‘Does Media Censorship exist in SA’ Survey:

  1. If the SA media have been censoring the above information from the SA public, is it possible they are censoring other information from the SA public?
  2. If Sally Petersen, the V&A Waterfront and other SA citizens were aware that the SA media is deliberately and intentionally censoring information from the SA public; would any of them be more interested in making an impartial investigation into whether the facts presented by the pamphlet were true, and were being massively censored from the SA public, by the SA media?

Possible ‘Public Relations’ Motives for SA Media Censorship:

  1. Why do you think the media is censoring all this information from the SA public?
  2. Is it possible the SA media are censoring this information from the SA public, to present a false and fake ‘TRC Rainbow’ public relations image to the world about South Africa?
  3. Is Corporate Image aware of the Marketing School of Thought as taught by Marketing Guru, Scott Ginsburg, the author of: * The Approachable Leader; * Live Your Name; * Stick Yourself Outthere: Get them to come to you!; * The Approachable Frontline; * The Approachable Manager; * Make a Name for yourself; * The Power of Approachability; * Hello, My Name is Scott?
  4. Mr. Ginsberg’s “Greatest Branding Secret of Modern Marketing’ philosophy he sums up as follows:
  5. What is Corporate Image’s response to Mr. Ginsberg’s Radical Honesty marketing philosophy:

    The Greatest Branding Secret in the History of Modern Marketing

    Nope, it’s got nothing to do with Google.

    It’s much, MUCH simpler than that.

    The Greatest Branding Secret in the History of Modern Marketing boils down to one word:

    Honesty.

    Yep. That’s it.

    Honesty.

    Call the Marketing Department for an emergency meeting. This is groundbreaking stuff.

    For three reasons…

    1. People are tired of being lied to.

    2. People are sick of wading through the ever-rising tide of corporate and political bullshite.

    3. People are forever jaded from the countless times they’ve been burned, duped, fooled, conned, scammed and screwed over.

  6. Do the V&A Waterfront think it is more important to lie to foreign visitors about the reality in South Africa, so as to get their tourist dollars, or that it is more important to tell the truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth about TRC fraud realities in SA; or to be sincere and committed to solving the root causes of problems; and to earn foreign tourists respect based on brutal honesty?

 

Response from V&A Waterfront Spokesperson: Ms. Emma King

Response to Radical Honesty SA

The V&A Waterfront’s removal of pamphlets which were placed on the site were part of the regular monitoring of the sites where brochures and other information are distributed. The sites where brochures are distributed are reserved for distribution of brochures and information regarding tenants and Cape Town Tourism affiliated organisations only. All other brochures and information placed there by other third parties are removed on a daily basis.

The V&A Waterfront does not feel that it is appropriate to speculate on comments regarding media and censorship. These questions would more appropriately be directed to the specific media owners.
