You know why they do this, but if you want to violently beat yourself over the head with confirmation of what you already know, read Parenti's Inventing Reality.

Is Inventing Reality a better read than Manufacturing Consent? I found Chomsky's book too dense to go through.

I haven't read Manufacturing Consent but I would describe Inventing Reality as a punchy compilation of the US' worst atrocities. If you like Parenti, you will like this book, it is easy to read it in his voice.
