| 0:00.0 | And the Good evening. It's Wednesday, September 6th. Welcome to a new episode of |
| 0:19.0 | System Update. Our live nightly show that airs every Monday through Friday at 7 PM Eastern exclusively |
| 0:24.8 | on rumble to free speech alternative to YouTube. Tonight the rapid and |
| 0:29.4 | well-funded emergence of the fraudulent industry of self-adointed disinformation experts is one |
| 0:36.3 | of the most consequential weapons developed after the 2016 election of |
| 0:39.7 | Donald Trump and therefore is a significant focus of the show. |

| 1:29.0 | This latter accusation, permitting dangerous disinformation to be heard always means that |
| 1:33.6 | one social media company or another is failing to censor in accordance with the |
| 1:38.1 | demands of the group and its funders. They then get corporate media outlets who crave censorship to |
| 1:44.0 | melodramatically trumpet their accusatory studies using flamboyant |
| 1:48.8 | headlines that claim a disobedient technology platform has the bullet other hands, knowing that it will |
| 1:55.0 | spread by a rarly with very few people actually reading the study to determine if the accusations |
| 2:00.2 | have any validity. |
