tabloid news whores - pimp daddies - and fake plastic trees

[AVID]

I feel slimy just skimming past faux and cnn these days. But it's the PIMPs that drip slime.

I spend a lot of time bashing the whores of the MSM. But that isn't making sense to me anymore.

I don't have a problem with prostitution, "massage parlors", or "lingerie boutiques" either, if it's the woman's choice, safe, and non-exploitive and there is a market - good for them.

The media whores choose to make a living selling what they have - sensationalized, "pop" news, orgasmic self-indulging rants, egotistical tirades and gossip that strokes the g-spot of the cable paying customers.

It is the pimp daddies that package it as real news. Our culture is becoming plastic and fake because of these pimps - like Radioheads song, "Fake Plastic Trees". One interpretation is that it is about some sad soul's fake plastic sex doll and the pleasure he gets from it. But another interpretation is that its about an eroding culture getting cheap thrills from fake, fast, processed life.

The PIMPS, Exploiters, and Hypocrites are the ones that corrupt and cheapen the system.

Who are the media PIMPS, EXPLOITATION KINGS, and HYPOCRITES of the media?

1. Murdoch

Other names?

1. I so hate myself

but there is (and I write this an Australia working journalist who despises what that man has done to our media culture) a part of me that can't help but admire Murdoch for taking one shiteful newspaper in Adelaide (the worst part of the so-called civilised world)into the vast empire he has now.
