Welcome to the TCP Research Site!

The intent of this research area is to provide additional sources of information about our world and those who have significant influence over it. The information we seek is either not supplied, weakly reported without reinforcement, or buried in a sea of trivial stories by mass media or industry associations. Much of this information should also provide a more complete picture for what has been censored, twisted, minimized, or differs from media stories or the official sources they rely on. This research area has links to mass media video and articles just as it does to independent sources. Together they form a much more complete picture of our past, present, and future.

Should you be unclear where to begin, the media page is a wonderful starting place. A good understanding of how media works, how it interacts with public relations firms, lobbyists, and government is vital to more fully understand other subject matters. The importance of media cannot be understated; as it is the principle shaper of reality outside our own local spheres of knowledge. It is a huge factor in what we understand and conclude about our entire world. Spend a moment to think about this fact!

While you are browsing through the topics in the various channels, it’s important to note that any one given topic is likely to span several different channels, so the matter of classifying which channel a topic belongs in is difficult. For example, the topic of ‘weather modification’ used as a military weapon might appear in the war/conflict, science/environment, government, or secrecy channels.

These links are provided to help expand information you might otherwise not know be aware of. It is up to you how you wish to process it. In the end, we take away and develop or own realities. Realizing how media interacts with your reality is a great first step!
