"There is a fifth dimension beyond that which is known to news. It is a dimension as vast as space and timeless as infinity. It is the middle ground between fiction and slander between fear and propaganda, and it lies between the pit of man's fears and the dearth of his knowledge. This is the dimension of not of imagination. It is an area we call the Fox Zone."
Imagine a world where the News creates the events, not the other way around. Imagine a world where one man’s view, that only the rich thrive, dictates what will be on the air.
Now take yourself back in time. You’re in your tenth grade science class. You remember the experiments. You start with the hypothesis and end with the conclusion. But something has changed, not only in Science, but in Current Events and History. The teacher is advocating starting with the conclusion and ending with the hypothesis.
Leap forward thirty years. You are now a scientist for the Oil Company. You are told by your employers to begin with a conclusion. “There is no climate change.” From here you create the facts.
Your childhood friend is writing History books for the State of Tennessee. He starts with the conclusion. Slavery was a minor incident in our history. From here create the history.
Your classmate works for a group of men that he refers to as “good old boys.” Their conclusion is that the holocaust is fiction. From here fill in the facts.
In this world, people aren’t doomed to repeat history, because it never happened. They get to experience it for the first time!
