It was not the first time this occurred and unfortunately, it will not be the last. Do you know how a faker and a grandstander managed to get away with exploiting America utilizing the power of the media?
Allow me to tell you a story about a man whose initials are DJ. He came to be known as a liar, a mass media manipulator, who filed for bankruptcy and ended up being charged with criminal fraud.

Earlier in my media management career, I was hired as station manager by an American entrepreneur to launch KTRG a TV station on the banks of The Rio Grande. Our team erected the transmitter tower and built a master control facility near the US/Mexico border towns of Eagle Pass http://www.eaglepasstx.us/ and Del Rio http://www.cityofdelrio.com/ in Valverde County, Texas. These Texas towns are across the border from the increasingly lawless city, or Ciudad Acuña http://www.tourbymexico.com/coahuila/acuna/acuna.htm and Black Rocks, or Piedras Negras, where 150 People recently disappeared http://bit.ly/2yI98ms in Coahuila, Mexico.
While living near the shores of Lake Amistad https://www.nps.gov/amis/index.htm I learned about a man who was commonly known as Goat Gland Dr. John Brinkley - Documentary https://youtu.be/HkMXDVBnrv4
Which Brings us to John R. Brinkley, The Goat Gland Doctor https://youtu.be/dyMQwED7sI4
The station I helped launch has since been sold a couple of times after changing formats, but the infamous media legend of Dr. John continues to this day.
