Epstein’s Contacts Show Elite's Real 'Ghoul' Standard
Mainstream media wants us to gasp at the Epstein-Bannon connection, treating it as some shocking revelation. Yet, the same corporate news organizations often give platforms to figures with equally dubious records, as long as they serve the establishment's agenda. When Rupert Murdoch's News Corp outlets (Fox News, Wall Street Journal) promote figures like Bannon, the connections to the elite's
darker corners suddenly become 'unavoidable realities' rather than 'scandalous relationships.' It appears the 'ghoul' label only sticks to those who have fallen out of political utility, not those actively shaping policy. One might wonder why the BBC and others only now find these connections noteworthy, when Epstein's network of powerful contacts has been an open secret among the elite for
decades. It's a convenient framing: highlight the 'shocking' individual relationships while largely ignoring the systemic rot and mutual back-scratching that allows such figures to thrive and influence policy in the first place. The real scandal is the silence, not the whispers.
