cont. None of these things improve the quality of the news service. There seems to be very little objective reporting and a lot of fuss about stories that are complete non issues. An example of this is the story that Obama doesn't wear a badge with the US flag on it. The USA is the only country I can think of where this would even be a story. I'm not here to bash the USA before people start getting pissed off, I just think the news in your country is of a really poor standard.
The news in the US is frankly pathetic. I've watched abc and nbc (I think?!) and found them appaling. The newsreaders and journalists report as though they were talking to children. Hardly any stories are about anything outside the USA. The news in the USA seems to be a platform for people to shout at each other, for newscasters to express their political views, and for people to generally act in a disgraceful manner.
my bet is that you may need a new occupation soon...perhaps...makeing big rocks into little rocks....in pajamas some place exsotic...like angola....erm idunno........
Here here Frank! We can never let them get the internet. A warning to all you media whores, you try and fuck with the internet, and we are going to fuck you up. Your days of bullshit are over, people are starting to see through your lies.
Just like the "terror attacks" were used to take away civil liberties and to spy on every American with OMG NO, the telecommunication companies so will it happen to the internet. I think some dumbass didn't realize what the internet would do. Otherwise we'd be shut out now just like we are in political debates, important issues & the media. When was the last time you saw an average American on the news expressing their concerns? Instead we are treated to talking heads who spread propaganda.
Commentary by Will Bunch, editorial writer for the Philadelphia Daily News, about the Democratic debate last night. I agree 1000% with Will Bunch. With all the real issues facing this nation and this commonwealth, the moderators' focus on tabloid issues was spurious and disgusting.
I came to YouTube for entertainment but have found that, just like he said, I can find more substance on both sides of issues quickly, without talking heads.

Exactly correct. Bill Moyers is championing a movement for media reform, search NCMR2008. Bless you Frank.

This is all because of FOX News and their high ratings. ABC wants the same. Now they have it.

Yep. Some day we'll be saying "remember the days when we could ......... on the Internet?"
Or, "remember the days when we could ...... on the Internet without having to register to do it with the NSA first?"
