M$M's WTF moment number 4,588 ...

[summer borealis]

Why does every story delivered by these TV fools about bailouts have NO dissenting viewpoint?
Everytime I watch one of these 20-something girly-girls do a financial story, there is never an interview with ANYONE who thinks said rescue package is outrageous.
It is infuriating!

1. yeah, I haven't talked to anyone in person who actually supports the bailouts

in fact, most people I talk to -- both conservative and liberal -- have been angrily opposed to such things.

Funny, though, that viewpoint is being blacked out by the M$M. It's all hand outs and good vibes all around. :grr:

2. I'm sorry Summer

but I quit watching them over a year ago. And you know what I don't think I'm anymore less informed than I was when I watched the m$m all day. In fact I feel I am better prepared to face the day without all the negative lying ass bullshit that I was hearing on their shows clouding my thoughts. :fistbump:

6. For a second there I was afraid I made a mistake

but I see I get a :thumbsup::fistbump:

Another big plus I forgot to mention is that my blood pressure thanks me too :-)

3. I remember hearing the local 50000 watt propaganda channel come out

right at the beginning of this, having two congress people presenting their sides.

No surprise, they handpicked the "representatives" that would support the propaganda they spout.

For: Dem from Youngstown area Tim Ryan

Against: Repug from east of Cleveland area Steve LaTourette

Both kind of out of the area.

Now, if they really wanted to be honest, they would have pointed out longtime punching bag Dennis Kucinich was, from the first moment, AGAINST the bailout package ... but that wouldn't go with their propaganda that the Dems are going to bankrupt the country ...

and they could have had a representative who was FOR the bailout ... longtime REPUBLICAN Ralph Regula explain why he supported handing the mortgage industry billions of dollars with no control over what was being done ...

but, as I said, it didn't fit in their propaganda to have Dennis Kucinich agree with what everybody was saying ...

5. Why do you people watch that crap?

I mean, you bitch and moan and complain and whine about how shitty television is, and yet every single fucking day, there's thread after thread after thread about how shitty television is!

TURN THE FUCKING THING OFF!

Every time you watch that soul-sucking device, you give your eyeballs to the advertisers who pay the networks to propagandize and oppress you. Don't want to be subjected to constant propaganda?

TURN THE FUCKING THING OFF!

Jesus Titty-Fucking Christ! It's not that difficult, and you might actually get something accomplished...
