Cops Treating Journalists As Terrorists During Protests in St. Paul

by Arno on September 3, 2008

Watch how Police show no regard whatsoever for our Press Corps. If I were watching this and it was coming from a 3rd World Country, I might not be surprised. The problem is that this is happening in the United States!!! When will police officers stop acting like Fascists!?!?!

Karl Rove Knows How Stupid This Country Is

by Arno on March 11, 2008

Yes I called this country stupid. Deal with it, it’s a fact. It’s either stupid or extremely oblivious to what’s going on around it. In 2000, Karl Rove managed to get so much mud on McCain that he lost the primary to then governor George W. Bush. You can read an interview with McCain from 2004 where he talks about the dirty campaign waged on him here. Now it’s 2008 and you can actually see Karl Rove on TV talking about John McCain’s compassion, and cites the very sample example that he used to discredit McCain now to make him look good.

You have to be completely drugged up as a Journalist (rephrase: person working at TV station) not to ask Rove directly when you’re interviewing him whether he believes everyone is that stupid that they would believe the bullshit coming out of his mouth. I mean I thought it was all about ratings - wouldn’t you get very high ratings if you started to ask some extremely difficult questions? Here’s one for any person interviewing Rove in the future: Are you for real? Do you really think we’re this stupid? Just 8 years ago you said McCain fathered an illegitimate child, that his wife was drug addicted - but now that McCain is the candidate to support you turn the story around? Get outttta here.

I’m not sure what makes me more angry, the fact that he dares to say that , or the fact that he can just get away with that. It’s stunning. Hope I’m not the only one thinking this…

David Shuster on Pimping

by Arno on February 11, 2008

I’m so sorry I missed this live, however the good people at mediamatters.org are always on the ball when it comes to this and you can read all about it here. Let’s keep it short: David Shuster made a comment on the air saying that the Clinton’s were ‘pimping’ their daughter. BIG DEAL!! This country really has to get over itself when it comes to all the offensive language. To me personally, language isn’t what drives sexism or racism or whatever other Ism - it’s the people that do.

Super Tuesday - Vote Zilla

by Arno on February 5, 2008

Of course everyone knows that the real interest the media has in the elections isn’t delivering the information the people need to make an educated decision on the respective candidate, but getting good ratings, selling ad space for more money, etc.

FOX News - The White Trash Of Television

by Arno on January 31, 2008

It’s of course nothing new that FOX news is a complete trash channel. If you’re watching it and seriously call it journalism you do have some homework to catch up on. I’ve always wondered why they even got any ratings at all, with their sleazy style of reporting, their unprofessional comments and best of all of course the tagline that Fox News is fair and balanced. “We report - you decide” - leaving out the fact that the decision is of course based on a report and which is supposed to deliver viewers facts which upon they can base their decision on.
