Media

[f3lix]

With their new attempt to label killings as a "hate crime" to boost Obama's need to stay in office and avoid talking about how Bam Bam is getting the job done fixing our economy, I am at a loss for how to fix the out of control media. They report on candidates they want and are no longer the source for info but the source for slanted info in the Orwellian style.

What's just as pathetic is what Yahoo News will put up as the catchy 5-6 word phrase to get you to click on an article that is not fulfilling at all as what that catch phrase was suggesting it be about. When those fail to get clicks, Yahoo will change the catchy phrase to try and get more clicks. It has nothing to do with journalism, but trying to sell ads for higher prices.

How do we fix this?

Just because the Dow is back up to 13,000 doesn't mean the economy is fixed.

We should probably start by holding ourselves to the same standards we expect from the media. Here you are presenting a problem of media bias, when your very first sentence is a subject, partisan opinion.

The economy has been stymied for a couple of years because consumer confidence was in the shitter ... now its hitting a point where people simply can't put off purchases any longer. People are buying cars, appliances, electronics, video games, and sorts of assorted bullshit that they haven't spent money on in a couple of years. Our economy is driven by consumption, and our appetites have become insatiable ... the economy IS recovering.

Like every recovery, some sectors are lagging behind others but shit is getting better. The economy will never be "fixed" ... its like fucking Frankenstein, we'll be robbing graves for parts until the end of time just to keep it shambling forward, and it may fall down once in a while, but its going to get up and rape your women.
