We don't really have a thread for standards of journalism, or possibly bullshit news articles. I'm starting one.

Jesus Blonde stop making new threads.

Pliedes · 07-20-2009, 03:17 AM

I think we need a new thread to discuss blonde's compulsive thread making.

LMAO. watch the video...classic. Australian politics are also well-known for their fistfights and insults.

I've always laughed whenever I see videos of the fighting politicians.

Entertaining. Until he insinuated that CNN reports and lets the people decide. Rick, you lie.

Video: CNN Leaves It There | The Daily Show | Comedy Central

Unfortunately, despite having a love-hate with CNN as my primary news coverage, I have lots of problems with it, moreso the site than the TV channel (that i never see).

I've been trying to use both CNN and Fox to get both sides of the spectrum lately, does anybody have any more neutral news providers they use?

DJ FC · 10-14-2009, 04:14 AM

The best news, I've found, openly has opinions.

Because we all have opinions and trying to find a "neutral" source is rubbish. How about you read both sides instead?

The Economist is gold.

Man, you gotta like read blogs and stuff because that's the only way to get the truth, you know man? Blogs are just people telling the truth and all of those news networks are just businesses selling you news man?

^ Not the BBC
Which happens to be why I prefer it to most other channels, they don't have to make shit up to sell copies, not saying it's perfect though.

You wanna know something weird? I clicked that as soon as the thread opened and while it was loading I was like fuck this guys looks like hes going to have a british accent. I knew it just by looking at his face. As soon as he started talking I stopped the video and posted this. I won't be watching the video.

DJ FC · 01-29-2010, 02:56 AM

Could it possibly be Tower Bridge in the background that gave it away?

THEINCREDIBLEdork · 01-29-2010, 07:58 AM

please child. the picture that displays before you start loading the video has no tower bridge, not that i would know what a tower bridge is in the first place.

Care to elaborate? Certainly you're referring to Rep. Berman, right?

Fruitacious B · 12-01-2010, 11:52 AM

My only consolation is that Leo Berman will die soon. Fuck that crotchety, retarded old man.

Der Fuhrer · 12-01-2010, 11:57 AM

Anderson Cooper is such a fag. God I hope he dies.

f3lix · 12-03-2010, 05:04 AM

Yes, Blonde. The "burden of proof" fallacy is rampant throughout that clip. Also has several appeals to ignorance and circumstantial ad hominems.

Mr. Blonde · 12-03-2010, 08:11 AM

Posrep to you for me being assumptive.

Perhaps you would like to enlighten us about your insults, then?

	The basis of our governments being the opinion of the people, the very first object should be to keep that right; and were it left to me to decide whether we should have a government without newspapers, or newspapers without a government, I should not hesitate a moment to prefer the latter. But I should mean that every man should receive those papers and be capable of reading them.
