-Always trips me out that there hasn't ever been more users using both up-and-down votes with equal frequency, especially with spam-like political-pundit offerings or a "year of 10 Rachael Maddow segments on every page."
-Who the fuck needs cable TV when there's devoted lackeys dutifully uploading every fucking newscast onto you tube?? YOU TUBE, where it belongs!! Why the fuck should we suffer infotainmentindoctrination here, I often ask myself....Then downvote , the same sensibilities guiding my hand.

They probably got suspended for that, they just don't bother reporting everything for obvious reasons, L.A.'s stigmatic history of her police force notwithstanding.

The illusion that these things happen everyday is only exacerbated by national and local, nightly newscasts. They want you to be afraid, so you will agree to their solutions to the "problem."

Gun culture or no gun culture, the chaos we're seeing is symptomatic of civilization-on-the-skids, in general.

If we had no guns, neurotics and burn-outs, the developmentally-disabled, off-the-charts hind-brainers, and morally and ethically bankrupt peeps would do it with clubs and knives and pointy, fucking sticks.

Wait until China fully rears her socially-inept neurotics upon the world as they suddenly become a power-player in the world economy-You think this shit is crazy??! Try a quarter of the world still 10 centuries behind a good portion of the world's population socio-culturally suddenly everywhere and anywhere. A wise man would teach his children some Mandarin phrases YESTERDAY!

Normally he has some evidence for his ranting. He didn't show anything this time. For about a year now the Young Turks newscasts have really turned me off. Even if I agree with them politically, they just seem to be playing the Fox game now.


It's all taken from the daily beast article in the description. But yeah Cenk does have a way of omitting details. He's usually on to something I care about, but I find it's more informative and less irritating to just skip the video and read his source.

Romney came across as a Putz.
Obama played it Classy.
I don't care about these opinion newscasters - as an average Joe, I'd say Obama played it cool but I don't see how Romney was winning the debate, everything that came out of his mouth was spin and rhetoric. Romney didn't display any kind of plan at all. He just kept repeating the same ol' stuff he's been saying all the time. He didn't go into details on anything even when he was challenged to do so.


We've found the one guy who called it for Obama.


Well Obama can stand there and knock people down all night if he wants..

http://youtu.be/n9mzJhvC-8E

Very interesting that he didn't; enuie or tactics?

In any case, this fella ain't getting through the next two without meeting pugilistic Obama, and anyone who knows recent history and has a sense of self preservation don't want that..

Emphasis mine. I disagree to an extant. Good journalists know you can strive for objectivity. You are right that ultimately anyone paying attention can figure your slant eventually, but the longer it takes the more respect you earn. It makes people notice all the more when you are clearly choosing words and editing material to moderate rather than polarize your newscast. When good communicators do it well, often it's the middle ground that becomes accepted by a plurality. Reconciling seemingly antagonistic viewpoints helps us to see the third way.

The media on the left doesn't think they are slanted, because they think they are right.
the media on the right doesn't think they are slanted, because they think they are right.

sorry, reality isn't quite so binary.
yet another false equivalence argument. Everyone is biased, you can't not be. Science and the history of our government have shown time and time again that there is no one "way" of getting to the truth. This idea that liberalism is correct vs conservatism is correct is a bullshit way of framing things, and the smart people know it. It's just another charade to keep you distracted.
yet another failure of the two party system. compromise is perceived as weakness

I lol'd at the beginning when the newscaster says "...and John Donaley is standing by with that story..". The dude was 10 feet away!

The wide-eyed expression of "oh crap" at :08 is wonderful.


The OMFG staring at the other girl after *NUDGE* "We're on!" was even better.

I'm so happy the other girl is less professional and more human as to laugh at the flub instead of just pretending it didn't happen as a more veteran newscaster is prone to.

what happened to the other two inches?

It's on her face apparently.
Or up her nose.

Ya I call double fail on that one.
