2. I don't watch ANY video broadcast news
for much the same reason.
In fact I love it when the local provider tries to get us to suscribe to cable.
As a Television Film graduate I regale them with comments about the narcoleptic side effects of watching too much television.... passive respondancy....much less the garbage and lies on might be hosed down with at any given time.

Carrier pigeons bring me all the news i need in little canistes attached to their legs on an hourly basis.

3. Cable News Always Behind The Curve
But AP has a way of becoming "common sense" - or cliff's notes for lazy news personalities.

4. No matter how hard they try, then can not controll all of the press's
responses.
I am about to give up on NPR - I discount half of what I hear from Cokie Roberts and Mara Liasson already. I have to take little snippits from all kinds of disparate sources when I want to from an opinion. I am grateful the to BBC and Al Jazeera.

As a friend of mine says this AM: "Mom has to work at both McDonalds and a Taco Bell to make ends meet, while hubby slaves away with no benefits like pension or health care.  That's pResident Turd's dream for America. "

10. Of all the bullshit policies pReisdent Fucknut has put forward....
that had to be the shortest lived bullshit policy he's ever had...did he even mention it in the speech?

It was a program that would have helped milions of Americans, my friends, until partisan Democratic obstructionism in the Senate killed it sometime between the preview of the speech in the afternoon and the actual speech that night.
