7. Is there anyone who honestly ISN'T sick of celebrities on the "news"?

I mean, I enjoy celebrity gossip, and if I want to, I will occasionally turn it to "E" or flip through the National Enquirer if I feel like wasting time.

But it is offensive that news channels --presumably serious news channels-- devote so much time to the analysis of celebrity fluff. It's very insulting to the viewers. You really do have to intentionally seek out worthwhile news these days.

4. If most Americans knew that much about the world, we'd be better off

Unfortunately, this map is beyond the grasp of most people

This is what our corporatocracy has wrought. Bread and circus "news" keep the population entertained and placid, more easily manipulated. Very, very sad.

5. Yep

The whole notion of a 'liberal' media is a joke.

The media's agenda is $$.

6. The media's agenda is $$.

But the media's corporate ownership's agenda is the very essence of fascism -- "ownership of government ... by controlling private power" (FDR).
