Oh. My. God.
A CIA agent has been outed, national security has been jeopardized. Bush wants to send $87 billion to a country we illegally invaded while services and infrastructure in this country go wanting. And what is the topic of conversation on CNN?
'A torn vagina.' I kid you not.
The Court TV commentator named Wendy Murphy (why do all Court TV employees seem to be rabid, bitter harridans like Nancy Grace, anyway?) actually just said that on Blitzer's show, in the course of conversation about the Kobe Bryant case.
Why the fuck are they wasting all this time on a story that, while (maybe) marginally interesting, isn't going anywhere today? After giving Bush an hour to bleat about nothing, shouldn't they spend just a little time deconstructing that speech? A couple of minutes, even?
The media has deserted their obligation to the public. I want to punch Wolf Blitzer in his hairy goddam mouth.

yeah, its lucky that there have been so many animal maulings lately, or else there w0ould be nothin for the media to talk about. after all, iraq and afghanistan are over and done with, the white house says they will comply fully with ashcrofts investigation, and finally, all of californias problems have been solved. if it weren't for tiger attacks and torn vaginas the news industry would go bankrupt, since there really is NOTHING important going on. how dare you attack our honest, hard working, unbiased media. i should turn you in as a terrorist if you keep insisting hat everything isnt really ok. believe what your told, its the patriotic thing to do after all. by the way, sorry for any typos, im typing with one hand, my cat bob took a big bite out of my left hand, and its all swollen. i wish i had health insurance so i could go to a doctor. oh well, im a good healer, i have to be, im poor, hopefully the infection wont spread

i emailed this to wolfie and aaron asking why cnn can't do real journalism like the cbc and bbc does. i am fed up with this f'ing tabloid bullshit they are pushing and spared no words.
since candy crowley and jeff greenfield will be on the panel during the debate, i'll be watching frontline's piece on bush and iraq.
after reading the latest gallup poll about the media being "liberal", i want to puke.
Score one for the CBC:
http://www.cbc.ca/national/
On our second half tonight a feature documentary from Brian Stewart -- what went wrong in Iraq? Brian has got, as he often does, some remarkable interviews from the bowels of the U. S. Defence Department that are very straightforward in their admissions about the unforeseen problems that have plagued the U. S. plan for Iraq.
Interesting piece begins roughly 21 minutes into the broadcast. Nothing like watching the BBC or CBC to see we definitely have state TV beaming into our homes via Faux or CNN. Good interviews with Dana Priest (waPo) and Tony Cordesman (sp??)

Jeff,
Thanks for that link to the CBC, I've e-mailed them a message of appreciation for their excellent news service. I've been watching News World International for about six months now. Compared with our Goebbels-esque news media, the CBC is like news from another planet. I only wish I could get BBC news.
Justin,
Good to hear back from you. Seriously, dude, you better have that hand checked by a doctor or at least by a nurse. You probably need antibiotics. Aren't you glad that that Trotskyite Hillary Klinton didn't get her single-payer national health care enacted?
On-Thread: killer-bees, shark attacks, tiger maulings, Kobe, the Petersons, Condit/Levy, et al. Nothing is too trivial or too foolish or too vulgar for the citizens of our Blessed Republic. Panem et circenses for the mobs of ancient Rome, DVDs and SUVs for the mobs of modern America.

well, the swelling is going down, ive been keeping ice on it and taking echinecia and goldenseal. if it keeps getting worse ill go to the doctor, and i guess put it on my credit card or something. hell if i went to the doctor every time i needed stitches i would be in debt for the rest of my life, ive stabbed myself in the hands un countable times, even cut 1/8" of my finger tip off to the tip of the nail, surprisingly it grew back. im not going to let a small cat bite het in my way, its only 2 small tooth holes, not really a chunk, no puss, its just swollen sorry for all the gory details, im just trying to convince myself its not a problem
