Another reason why the mass media Always Lies about those people it witch-hunts

I have often been puzzled why it is that the mass media Always lies about the people it is witch-hunting. 

If you know anything of the reality of what lies behind these witch hunts, you will know that extra and lying accusations are Always smuggled into the charge-sheet, or even made central. 

This addition of false "crimes" is Always done, even when there are are sufficient reasons (from the evil totalitarian POV!) to "convict" the victim of wrong-doing. 

Such happened to me when subjected to an international mass media firestorm back in 2008. An article I published in the Times Higher Education Supplement was directed against the UK government's false assumption of identical average IQ in all social classes, and illustrated that the real differences had a much bigger than expected effect on the most IQ-selective universities. 

But some of the most impactful of global media added IQ "racism" - to the charge sheet; about which there was literally nothing mentioned in the article.  

Of course I knew, and had written elsewhere, about racial differences in average IQ - but the mass media did not know that I knew! Presumably because the journalists were too idle or busy to use a search engine. Apparently; making-up (what They believed were) lies it was quicker, easier - and just as effective for their purposes. 

I found this very interesting at the time, and since; and wondered why this happened. 

There are several reasons I came up with - all of which seem true. 

One is that that habitual liars habitually lie. Simple as that. 

But another is that it seems normal human nature to assume that somebody who is bad in one way is also bad in every other way - including the worst way.

This is, after all, what happens in novels, on TV, and in movies - any baddie is all-round bad - but especially in the way that the writer regards as most-bad. 

And therefore, when anyone is accused of badness, then you might as well accuse them of the worst possible badness - which, for the modern mainstream totalitarian-affiliate, is of course "racism". 

This is why all genuine baddies in nowadays-fiction are shown to be "racist". Whereas the antiheroes (which is the only kind of hero in the mainstream) is always "antiracist" even when a violent, thieving, arsonist, murderer.  

So, "racism" is semi-automatically added to the charge-sheet of all accused bad persons nowadays - and such is the definitional-usage of the term, that the accused can never prove himself innocent (even if he is foolish enough to try!).   

The problem of lying on the charge sheet goes even beyond that, however. There are also Always what might be termed gratuitous lies - random seeming made-up stuff. 

This, again, may be rooted in a natural human propensity to fantasize about enemies when in a position of power over them - because enemies don't matter, and we can say anything we like about them. So why not indulge - from sheer spitefulness.  

And the more false things we say about our enemies, the more time and energy they are tempted (or compelled) to waste in refuting random-nonsense. 

In other words; one aspect of the industrial-scale lying that goes on is our old adversary: top-down Project Chaos. 

Lying at every opportunity serves permanently to confuse (and thereby weaken) everybody on whom it is practiced, or who is drawn into the pointless and endless business of claim and counter-claim, evidence versus refutation.
