When the fuck did news reporters become paparazzi types?
Anyone watching KO's Countdown, notice the local news reporter for KNBC? I don't think I've ever seen a more pathetic excuse for "journalism" than that. He was actually bitching at the police who were trying to keep him away from the police car with Paris inside. I know that local news journalists aren't always "professional" acting, but that was simply embarrassing to watch.

5. kissing reagan's arse....
reagan was a fake, a front man like a b-movie saloon door front who, somehow, was invested with all that 'we duh people' hold dear....and it became cool, indeed necessary, to kiss ass for the reaganites stasrting back in 1980....reagan happened 12 years after bobby kennedy was murdered- you can actually trace the pattern/process as the rightwing stooge/boor of the california governor office became the 'great white hope'! The pure hatred that fueled the 'reagan revolution' ie: the 'big lie', is today maintaining junyer bush and the media corruption you have pointed out. It's all connected. IF only the herd (them grunting goofballs with their nukler weapons) could at least THINK of what it means, that the men they TRUST literally hate them so much they eager to see the end of the frickin' world....
if there's anything freepers have that's agreeable, imho, it's their hatred/contempt for the herd. One almost wants bush inc to succeed, knowing what that'll cost them stupid spineless bullying punks who make up the bulk of our society (and allow serious journalism reduced to time wasting nonsense)
we working people put up with SHEET in pursuit of the almighty dollar. The journo you criticise is as much a victim as we are...it's mr pig we need to isolate/hate
