This is one group that will be happy when the spotlight of media scrutiny swings the other way - but the damage may already be too great.


One can only hope. If even half of their donations move to more cost-effective charities, cancer victims will be the real winners. And administrative overhead of 60-70% is utterly absurd, making it pretty obvious what their -real- purpose is.

I'm pretty sure the charity contributions, production expenses and employee bonuses are all 100% deductible, so he'll just have to pay taxes on the part he actually takes home.

I don't know how donations work in US taxes but I hope Louis has budgeted appropriately for IRS. I would hate to see him become one of those celebs who down the road finds out he owes Uncle Sam a shitload of money.

>> ^spoco2:

See, now I feel even more awesome about paying my paltry, don't-actually-notice-it-not-being-there $5.
Fucking good on you Louis. How can you not like this guy?
Awesome.


Man you must've had good parents or something. I hate well raised jerks like you!

>> ^Sagemind:

I'm thinking you're missing the whole Bat-Point!
The fact that "Occupy", a collection of public citizens are chastised and arrested for shutting down the bridge, yet Bloomburg happily allowed it to happen just previously, only to the extent that it shut everything down as a result, and not just for half a day, but for several days.
The difference between the two groups? One was a group of people exercising their right to protest and the other was Big Business who were willing to pay off the city.
Forms and procedures be damned, the result is the same. Things got shut down and only one of the groups suffered!


Are you saying that Batman is the 1%?

I remember what appeared to be the breaking point for Keith - when his old man lay sick and dieing and he pleaded for Keith to kill him. Keith went on to make a special comment for Obama to put through a real healthcare bill... no dice. Now look at him go, you da man Keith.

*promote this amazing and more than necessary tirade.

Holy crap! That was one of the best special comments I have heard from K.O.!
Every great hero needs an enemy to fight. Every great movement needs a symbol of their enemy to fight, too.


Agreed!

Have we put ourselves in this situation? So many things work like this. Have we put ourselves in trouble by taking a million bad decisions, or accepting a million injustices, one at a time, each one insignificant, but eventually adding up to something very bad?


I think you really hit the nail on the head there -- that's the real underlying cause of so many problems we face right now. There's so much emphasis on "individual responsibility" and self-interest that people have totally lost sight of the idea that they should be thinking about how their decisions impact society at large.

The end result is that all of that self-centered disregard for other people's problems at the micro level just piles up until our entire society has become organized in ways that seem oppressive and abusive to most of us. That's not because we've been taken over by some cabal of evil geniuses (as so many seem to think), it's because we've walled ourselves in with our own mutual disregard for each other.

The false dichotomy is in Olbermann's call for Jean Quan to resign. It has nothing to do with the tactics that OPD employed.
You misunderstand me if you think I'm in support of Quan and the Police's actions. I simply think that overblown rhetoric doesn't make for good journalism. The debate would better be served by reason and reporting than by appeals to emotion. I don't need Keith Olbermann to tell me how I'm supposed to feel about violence. Perhaps it's a radical thought, but I trust people to be able to make up their own minds.

Fuck this. As a resident of Oakland, I deplore seeing more violence in a city already plagued by violence. I would much rather see the city act in support its citizen's right to speak out against injustice. However, I'm fed up with seeing Olbermann and the clowns he left at MSNBC abuse such childish tactics. I refuse to pat someone on the back simply because they've become a yelling head for our side. Is the intended implication that we're not smart enough to make our own judgements in reaction to this footage?
The way I see it, Olbermann is left with only one false dichotomy: learn how to practice journalism and contribute to the meaningful debate that our country needs or resign.

Yeah?
A false dichotomy? I don't see where that equates to riot gear cops shooting people with rubber bullets and lobbing shock grenades into the crowd.
I think you're on the wrong side here, boy.
