Displaying 511 To 540 Of 1,432 Comments The Daily Planet, Vol.1 Sunday Edition Cher, in order for you to see this message, I post it here: if you have a little bit of time could you make a post with only the Huff links? We could save it in media/HP as a research tool. Chase suggested this, and I think it’s an excellent idea. ***Edit: Please for the reference list, in case you want to do it, only links that you have previously checked. I read about half of the so called progressive link and got sick . The person had no clue and defended AH for everything. It looks as if someone has to throw the mud yet. Sigh. » Posted By Truth On February 20, 2011 @ 8:12 pm Excellent Cher, thank you 🙂 » Posted By Truth On February 20, 2011 @ 2:12 pm Wow, Cher! That’s great! I get just overwhelmed by the sheer amount of news, but the format you present here is excellent. Thanks! » Posted By Truth On February 20, 2011 @ 1:55 pm Invite For Collaboration Part 2: [img]https://planetpov.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/02/Short-description-MSIA.jpg[/img][img]https://planetpov.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/02/Russel-Bishop-Huffington-Post-Insight-Seminar-Leader.jpg[/img] » Posted By Truth On February 23, 2011 @ 4:09 am The following is about the cult Arianna Huffington and her sister Agapi are or were a part of. Towards the end of this excerpt AH states that she never saw evidence of John-Roger, the cult leader, wanting to control people. But then, is she trustworthy, considering this: At Cambridge she studied economics and was president of the university’s storied debating society, the Cambridge Union—which has made her a master sophist, capable of cutting an issue 16 ways and winning the argument without revealing what she really believes. Suzanna Andrews, http://www.vanityfair.com/politics/features/2005/12/huffington200512? Hmmmm….and… “wanting to control people….” does it ring a bell, when I think of the way comments and deletions and more were handled over at HP??? Full article is here: http://www.people.com/people/archive/article/0,,20100035,00.html Susan Whitmore finally decided that her guru, John-Roger, was no man of God the day her husband’s life was threatened. In fact, the evidence had been accumulating for some time. Six months earlier, Susan’s husband, Wendell Whitmore, now 42, and his twin brother, Wesley, had left John-Roger’s Los Angeles-based Movement of Spiritual Inner Awareness (MSIA), denouncing its founder as a fraud. Since then they had been subjected to a campaign of hate mail, vandalism and death threats. Still, Susan believed she could confront J-R, as his followers call him, and reason with him. John-Roger agreed to meet with her in January 1984, but his message was hardly encouraging. “He told me that the vandalism was a warning and that he was personally touched that someone loved him enough to do it,” says Susan, 37. “He informed me that some people wanted to kill Wendell and Wesley. He spent 10 minutes telling me how they were going to make it look like a car accident. He said that no one would be able to trace it back to him.” (…) (…)Once initiated into J-R’s circle, say former disciples, followers hesitate to leave, if not for fear of reprisals, then out of reluctance to blow their chances at salvation. John-Roger has warned, after all, that the Mystical Traveler Consciousness visits earth only once every 25,000 years. Moreover, concedes defector Matthew Cohen, many of the faithful “sincerely believe in the goodness of John-Roger and what he’s doing.” Among them is best-selling author Arianna Stassinopoulos Huffington (Picasso: Creator and Destroyer), who rejects the charges of John-Roger’s critics. “These rumors have no validity,” she says. “I have known John-Roger for 15 years, and there is nothing in my experience of the man to support any of these allegations. I have never once seen any evidence of him wanting to control people.” The above people article is from September 26, 1988. If she knew him for 15 years then means that she was involved with this cult from 1973 onwards, and presumably up to today. I did read in one of the newer articles that she met with him for dinner and that he was a good friend. More details in the planned series. » Posted By Truth On February 23, 2011 @ 3:29 am jkkFl, sigh, what a pity that you don’t want to write. But many thanks for your offers, I noted them down. » Posted By Truth On February 22, 2011 @ 2:17 pm JackRussellTerrier, great to see you. Wow! That comment you could land is so spot on! If we could use it for the project it would be excellent. And if you want to join us you’re sure enough more than welcome. My email is mentioned above. Thanks to Chernynkaya’s Daily News, (The Daily Planet), including suggestions as to what to do, thankfully there is really no single reason to go to HuffPost anymore. I feel appalled every time I open the site. Thanks for sharing your letter to HP. I’m glad they heard from at least one person what we think is wrong. » Posted By Truth On February 22, 2011 @ 2:13 pm Artist, astoundingly I found out she has core values and merely changed her stance on the role gov should play. Yet, her words and deeds concerning her core values don’t match each other. I am trying to find out where is the warp in her mind. » Posted By Truth On February 21, 2011 @ 10:56 pm audadvnc, it is true, I do laud the President, for this is how I feel about him. And the atmosphere on Huff was not such that I could share my feelings, therefore I bottled them up inside. Now naturally I couldn’t resist to share them here. But I don’t demonize AH. Oh well, maybe I did in this piece. But what I’m really trying is to get to the heart of the matter. She did distort the perception about the president and I feel compelled to take a strong stance against that. Therefore I never joined in finding fault with the president. Here’s some food for thought: The famous spiritual leader Yogananda once was asked his opinion about the many failures in his organization. He simply said something along those lines: If I concentrate on the failures of the organization, I can spend several lifetimes to do so. What for? I concentrate on what is working. I found this advice a wise one. Yet I am open to discuss real issues or concerns about the president. If you write an article spiked with facts, not with talking points (which btw stem in a large part of the picture AH is painting on a daily basis) you will sure get response here. Or, you can write it as an opinion piece, but then declare it as such. » Posted By Truth On February 21, 2011 @ 10:46 pm Redemption Song, it’s liberating to be able to talk freely and figure out how things work. I’m still rejoicing in that. » Posted By Truth On February 21, 2011 @ 10:31 pm escribacat, glad to see you. Cher introduced me to your “Rashamon” . Excellent work! This could build the heart of the chapter which makes the point how AH is working against Obama and the Dems. (Whereas I’m not sure if you collected also material concerning the Dems specifically. It was another idea that has crossed my mind.) In any case, would you be interested to contribute to this chapter with your Rashamon? If yes, please write me an email (address above), so we can discuss more specific. Now I am holding my breath… » Posted By Truth On February 21, 2011 @ 10:29 pm No worries, you didn’t know jkk, because it was on purpose that I let it open so far who would do what, just to figure out who has which interest. And really, it is the most important to go with the flow of our own hearts. If then still two or more people want to work on the same issue we need to see how to coordinate. Btw sorry, I still had no time for the email, but it will come. ***Edit: great link, thanks again. » Posted By Truth On February 21, 2011 @ 10:07 pm Exactly, jkk. Let’s see how we get there. » Posted By Truth On February 21, 2011 @ 7:45 pm jkkFL, thanks for the link. Don’t worry, I am already working on that part, so no need for you to do that. And even if I wouldn’t, please only work on what you really like to work on. — Oh, I just saw you mailed me, so I contact you there. » Posted By Truth On February 21, 2011 @ 7:30 pm intotheabyss, good to see you. I am working on the cult part and I remember that I found more info earlier and I try to re-find this. However, it’s going to be difficult to pin her down on the cult thing, it was my plan too. But I guess it’s nearly impossible, because she is too savvy with words and thus averted this catastrophe earlier when she was under a broad media attack. Here is why: At Cambridge she studied economics and was president of the university’s storied debating society, the Cambridge Union—which has made her a master sophist, capable of cutting an issue 16 ways and winning the argument without revealing what she really believes. Suzanna Andrews, http://www.vanityfair.com/politics/features/2005/12/huffington200512? Suzanna Andrews wrote this very good article in 2005. There’s a lot of information on the chameleon like changes too. So even this was out there long ago! Yet I find it a good idea to harp on that again, for she has had a few more color changes since 2005. Please contact me by email for further discussion. » Posted By Truth On February 21, 2011 @ 7:23 pm This, however, is touching and comes as far as I’m concerned from the real Arianna. http://ariannaonline.huffingtonpost.com/columns/column.php?id=729 Also glad to see that she didn’t have that air of evilness around her always. That gives me hope. [img]https://planetpov.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/02/AH-young.jpg[/img] » Posted By Truth On February 21, 2011 @ 10:48 am biznesschick, as I’ve stated in the comment right below, I have no idea what drives her. I think sometimes she simply lacks awareness that there are other living beings in the world besides her. » Posted By Truth On February 21, 2011 @ 10:38 am mairs, thank you for your wise words. I just read about California and how her husband’s campaign manager had called her ruthless and vicious. And she was even for the Religious Right? She is indeed a very strange being that I don’t understand at all. But as you say, it starts to make sense as I gather the puzzle pieces together. I do want to know what drives her to bash the President publicly every single day. » Posted By Truth On February 21, 2011 @ 10:35 am [img]https://planetpov.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/02/AH-evil.tiff[/img] Denounced as a “right-wing Lady Macbeth” and excoriated for her “viciousness,” Arianna was savaged even by her husband’s campaign manager, who described her in his memoirs as “beautiful” but “evil.” The phrase would become a national joke, picked up in the 1990s by her friends Bill Maher and Al Franken, who would introduce her on their shows as “the beautiful but evil Arianna Huffington.” —I don’t know – to me this is again similar to Palin – no beauty, exactly because of the evilness. » Posted By Truth On February 21, 2011 @ 9:21 am Ok, thanks Cher » Posted By Truth On February 21, 2011 @ 8:55 am SILLY ME!!! How could I forget! [img]https://planetpov.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/02/Right-is-Wrong-AH.tiff[/img] » Posted By Truth On February 21, 2011 @ 8:54 am Update: We gathered already some interesting information. Unfortunately most of the people who said would join are currently not around – I hope they’ll be back soon!! Now a request: Does anyone have more good background info on AH? The problem with the media whores is that there are too many interviews around. I’m not keen to read more than necessary, and I have the articles of gawker plus some links from Cher further down. Help very much appreciated. » Posted By Truth On February 21, 2011 @ 8:36 am PW, a PS: A little further down is another link concerning AOL – if you’re interested to look at it. Seems to be a very friendly company. —- well. » Posted By Truth On February 21, 2011 @ 8:16 am PW – at least they were forced to pay. What about you, did you volunteer at that time or were you paid? » Posted By Truth On February 21, 2011 @ 8:14 am Thank you, Buddy. I hope PW or someone else researches this part since I have a lot of work already…. » Posted By Truth On February 21, 2011 @ 7:23 am NEW POST: Cher, I was pondering that and yes, that’s very important. Yet it should be driven home to them with a force, otherwise they won’t even notice it. After all they don’t know what is going on behind the emerald curtain. Once we’ve put all of that into a powerful form we can contact them, as well as media matters and so on. Yet this project will take some time, especially for those things that need more research like that cult thing. I think we are still in time before the election madness is starting off again. » Posted By Truth On February 21, 2011 @ 3:44 am Abby, from a spiritual point of view it is. According to Hindu belief everything is just a divine play. Who knows? » Posted By Truth On February 21, 2011 @ 3:12 am Yes, Abby, quite similar to the dramas we saw unfolding around Palin and Huffington. And those are even for free….. well, at the cost of decent politics though. So I may prefer paying to see such stuff in a play…. » Posted By Truth On February 20, 2011 @ 10:50 pm Abby, can you give me the details about this book/film? Should be pretty interesting to have a look at that. » Posted By Truth On February 20, 2011 @ 10:11 pm The AOL chapter should be about chapter 13 or so. And no, no deadlines yet. Any information about AOL should be interesting. Those who are not into politics don’t know anything, and it should just highlight the context in which Huff is standing now (and just more openly than it did before). Thanks for being around, PW. 😉 » Posted By Truth On February 20, 2011 @ 10:05 pmComments Posted By Truth

Yet I need some more thorough background infos. There is not only Wiki for this, isn’t it?
And yes, Arianna’s self-centeredness and selfishness are pretty obvious, still I would like to know to which extent they go. Did she intentionally split the left? Look at the headlines Cher posted and at escribacat’s “Rashamon” series. These are quite a bit telling!
