Episode 318 – A Decade of Dominance

by | Jun 1, 2017 | Podcasts | 47 comments

10 years ago a lowly English teacher in a one room apartment launched a website no one knew about on a clunky old laptop. Today you know that site as “The Corbett Report.” Join James for this special 10th anniversary edition of the podcast as he reflects on the history of the site, and what is possible when a motivated individual with a passion is supported by a community.

  1. Oh, and I should say another sincere thank you to all those who participated in the “Hidden Corbett Report Gem” thread and congratulations to EYEisBloke and namcc. I’ve just got in touch with them to get the details to send them their prize!

  2. James, I second john.o’s sincere thank you for ten years of dedication to finding and sharing, as he put it, “simple ‘truth’ for its own sake.”

    Congratulations to EYEisBloke and namcc for remembering truly meaningful (especially to James, I should think!) hidden gems.

    And Happy 65th to john.o.

  3. Agree with john.o
    I read 1984 in 1972 and started noticing things but put them to the back of my mind then one day brought it all to the surface. I was in school at the time and it was when they had started suggesting that we wear seat belts. I seen law enforcement stopping traffic to see if people were wearing their seat belts and thought to myself “papers please”. Next thing I know it’s a law you have to wear your seat belts and from then on til now the intrusion has escalated to terrifying heights. With so many fake truths out there it is comforting to know I can come to your site and get facts not just opinions. Thank you. You give me hope.

  4. Congratulations James, i am always in awe of people like you, who are able to make information accessible and understandable. Truly glad i found your site some years ago. Regards/A

  5. Congratulations, James! You’re a true inspiration to many of us. It’s marvelous you have proven that open-source journalism is possible!

    I wish good health upon you and another successful decade ahead. Best of luck!

    P.S. did you ever get a garden started? ;~)

    • We have some cucumbers, tomatoes, green peppers, basil and three types of lettuce growing in planters at the moment. It’s a humble garden, but it is a garden, and my son loves watering it in the morning!

        • I liked growing stuff when I was a child. Later this interest as well as many other interests died, thanks to schooling probably.

          I knew so many inquisitve kids growing up (mind you I’m 35 so not that long ago), where did it all go? Kids today don’t wonder about anything, just stare at the goddamn screen.

          • I hear you about Interest or inquisitive or curiosity.

            My take…
            An individual’s “general interest level, general curiosity” is a barometer of “aliveness”. The quality of “being interested” is probably at the core of one’s life force.

            Rocks can be interesting. But they can’t “be interested”.
            Life “is interested”.

            mkey, like you said, one really observes this “being interested” quality in children. …until it is squashed.

  6. = The Corbett Report Disc Collection – TORRENT THEM!!! =

    I hope you’ll create “official” Corbett Report collection torrents, before they switch off the Interwebz.

    If you don’t someone else might. That’s not a threat. Many already have been. People will contribute as they will, regardless, just like the system you have now – freely available online, but well supported by those who can and value your work.

    If you do it yourself, you can include a text file or web link to various ways to donate and/or support the Corbett Report – whether it’s a Patreon link, a Bitcoin address, etc. – as you already have, but in an alternative way.

    Also – KickStarter, IndieGoGo, GoFundMe, or whatever applies.
    Also – Namecoin, Peercoin, Dashcoin (formerly Darkcoin), Litecoin, Feathercoin, Vertcoin, Flashcoin, Ethereum, Humaniq, Steemit, DogECoin, BasicAttentionToken, etc.

    You could share the complete disk image (ISO, etc), or, I’d like to recommend using the HEVC x265 codec which is far more efficient and compact (anticipating 4k but great and flexible for any resolution). It’s pretty common now, and growing, and though not completely accepted everywhere it will be inevitably. It requires much more compression processing and time up front to get it so small yet looking so good.

    If you don’t want to do it, I would be honoured to help and do it for you. I’d rather not do it with my meager processing resources, but I think it’s far more important to get it out there in every alternative way possible. If you sent me a set I’d be happy to send it back or to someone else after I’ve copied off the files and no longer needed it. Or someone else can lend me theirs. Whatev.

    If I were you, I’d consider hiring a local student who needs a limited part time job to do it for you.

    I don’t know how many disks you sell. Perhaps it’s your life’s blood and we shouldn’t mess with that. If that’s the case I’ll stop asking today, otherwise I’ll keep reminding you of this alternative method to spread the Corbett gospels.

    A lot of people read these comments. If you agree, please let James know. If you don’t, let him know. If you read this and don’t comment then know this… the next time you stub your toe it’s because you didn’t comment below, and, I love you anyways.

    P.S. Are the comments sections included on the DVDs? There’s some gold in them there hills.

  7. Corbett Report DVDs
    https://www.corbettreport.com/support/shop/

    I have had some experience when it comes to burning DVDs.

    I gotta tell folks that these DVDs are top of the line, not the ordinary type DVD which has half the storage capability.
    The raw blank product is definitely not cheap in cost nor in quality.
    Verbatim 8.5 gigabyte dvd+r dl

    Also notice that Corbett has the discs themselves imprinted with a wonderful graphic label.

    It really does take some time, effort and cost to burn, print, package and mail these.

    (Personally, I love the graphic design on the DVDs and the case.)

    I may not have my facts straight about all this. Just my observation from the video.
    James, please correct me if I am wrong …or if I am blowing too much smoke.

    I am a tobacco smoker, so people should watch out.

    • The new design on the DVD cases and labels really is amazing…so of course I didn’t do it myself. That’s the work of Mike Krentz, a graphic designer who has done some of the graphic design work for the site, like the main website header and the video intro, etc. He is a professional graphic designer who does this for almost nothing as a form of donation to the site, so please do take the time to thank him if you like his work. He’s at http://mikekrentz.com/

  8. Congratulation on a great 10 years James!!
    You have helped to open the eyes of so many – cannot thank you enough for the work you have done.
    Best of luck and looking forward to another decade of dominance.

  9. Hi James.

    Your story with customs officers bring awareness how differently we are formatted by our life circumstances. I was born in socialistic Poland with tightly sealed borders. I first time traveled to former Yugoslavia when I was 10. It was so normal that custom officers go through your luggage, can tell you to remove trousers, they will squeeze all toothpaste out of the tube just to check if you don’t have illegal dollars rolled inside. My mother prepared me how to handle it and how to behave not to draw attention. Most my travels, especially in post socialistic block, till I was an adult, looked like that. And even in last 10 years, travelling in between Switzerland, Germany and Poland, it was still happening from time to time.

    The funny thing is that it never occurred to me that it can be perceived as violation of my rights. I just accepted it as a part of moving between the borders…

    Eh…. conditioning 🙂

    Keep well,

    Dariusz

  10. From the Associated Press…
    …headline reads…
    The Latest: France says no trace of Russian hacking Macron
    ST.PETERSBURG, Russia (AP)

    I get the pop-up “Security Alert” by ESET which states:
    “The identity of this web site or the integrity of this connection cannot be verified.”

    Those keywords like “Russia” and “hacking” may be part of it. Also, some of the trash hi-jacking advertising video pop-ups could be an issue.

  11. Some months back, Corbett mentioned a High School kid from Oklahoma, Luke Marshall, who was inspired by James.

    12th Grader interviews USS Liberty survivor – Late Dec 2016
    USS Liberty Survivor Sergeant Bryce Lockwood Reveals Truth about the USS Liberty False Flag Attack

    In this interview High School Senior Luke Marshall talks with Sergeant Bryce Lockwood who was aboard the USS Liberty on June 8th, 1967. They talk about whether the attack on the Liberty was a false flag, the role people such as LBJ and Robert Mcnamara played in the attack, and Zionism in politics. Luke states: “The lesson to be learned: the men who were on the Liberty and their families deserve justice. We must get Israel out of American foreign policy and put an end to Zionism and Israeli oppression of the Palestinians.”

  12. A bit late…
    Congratulations on your achievement James!

    You are one of the lucky ones who are actually doing what fulfills them and is not just putting in the hours at a “job”!

    May the blessings continue!

    I became aware of you a number of years ago. (Have no idea when… but it has been YEARS! When you were wearing the suit & tie, and had those flashing screens behind you).
    I really appreciated your clarity and ability to distill things into simpler terms. Early on, I felt your analysis to be astute and sober truth. (I did glitch a few times with some of your remarks, but that was because I didn’t catch on to your sarcastic humour until I became more familiar with your style. Giggles!)

    So I thank you sincerely for being a refreshing spring of sanity!

    I would nominate your video “9/11: A Conspiracy Theory”.
    I loved your humour and was bursting with glee.
    I thought … “WHAM! In your face! You sheeple still want to believe the official story?”.

    A question of interest:
    James, would you have a sense of how many of your subscribers/followers are female?
    Just wondering if your style is better received by male minds that likes to take things apart and see how it works.

    Thanks again, and all the Best!

    PS > Oh.. one last thing…
    I don’t get the “A Decade of Dominance” …. not sure of your use of the word “Dominance”. Did I miss something?

  13. Congrats, James. I found your work back in late 2013 when I really started questioning the mainstream rhetoric for just about everything. I’m pretty much known to my friends now as your groupie since I pass on one of your videos or articles at least once a week for them to consider and learn from.

    You’re clearly very appreciated all over the globe, which means you’re inspiring a large portion of the resistance. Keep on keeping on and I look forward to continuously digesting and absorbing your research for a long time to come.
