Geeze the media sucks
« on: August 13, 2008, 12:28:14 PM »
I got onto MSN, and the first thing I see for news is 'Who is dressed better? Michelle Obama, or Mrs McCain?' And then, in VERY small writing, I see the thing about osetia... :rofl

The one thing anyone cares less about (which I guarantee you no1 does care about) is on the front page in big bold letters. If there was a nuclear war, I guarantee you, it would still be front page news with 'Who dresses better? Mrs Obama, or Mrs McCain?'  :lol

Since the Entertainment section was full, CNN actually ran a Matthew McConaughey piece on his being a "new daddy" under the Health header  :aok

Yep, I can heartily agree with that...
The Media Sucks!!!!

Mostly because they seem to share John Kerry's opinion,
that everyone except they themselves, are stupid!!!!

Also that they believe, IF they tell you that, "That turd tastes
good!!!!" enough times, you will believe it... Mmmmmm try it!!!!

Sad to say, sometimes people DO believe it!!!  LOL!!!

I start watching BBC World every night about 2:00 am eastern. BBCs legendary british stick up the bellybutton understated delivery combined with the outstanding info and video makes it riveting.

Mrs McCain wins hands down.  She owns a beer distributorship.

Maybe so, but Ms. Obama knows where to get the best weed in any major city in the U.S. and all of Canada.

The BBC has its fair share of critics, but you can usually get the thread of what is happening - and it does generally try and give a balanced view of things. The claims of both sides are given, but caveated with comments about the difficulty corroborating what is claimed.

Their reporting of this particular storm in a teacup has been really good, if you ask me.

Agreed on bbc.co.uk

TV wise the BBC is usually my first stop followed by Sky News. I'll check Fox or CNN if I'm truly desperate for something, although it takes alot of effort to sit through the rubbish on Fox news channel.
