MSM: BREAKING NEWS
Britney Spears has created a fuss on an airline because the seats werent leather.

She then asked to leave.

"and no Im not making this up"

I guess the seven soldiers that died in Iraq today is not news.

2. Hey, the corporate news networks are concerned with profit margins, not informing the public
They will report on sensationalistic stories because they believe it it will get ratings rather than the boring health care debate or the depressing war in Iraq, and in that business, ratings translates into increased profit margins for the shareholders on the board of directors.

9. The 'Corporate Media'
is way more interested in profits from their incestuous relationships with Defense/Energy/and Government subsidized Corporations than they are with any piddling little ratings. I don't know of anyone who even watches it anymore. That ratings excuse doesn't fly anymore.

6. In our little city.. the City Manager was watching TV, saw a report
of soldier's deaths, followed immediately by a Paris Hilton siting... He got so ticked off that he ordered the town's flags to half-mast for the fallen soldiers. And Three weeks later, the flags are still there.

I hope they stay there until we're out of there...
