Just curious as to where people get their news and points of views.

believe it or not i spend more time watching the daily show than i do paying attention to any other "news" source. pathetic. yet true.

 

There is no news going on in canada now until an election is called, and the american "news" is just getting crazier and crazier. who the -*BAD WORD*- cares about that dubious inquiry, it's just politics. maybe if i spent more time sifting i'd find more news that isn't political in nature, but i'm unwilling to do so. especially as politics become more and more about attacking your opposition(s) than promoting your party through ideas and such. reason? all parties are gradually coming to the same center (or in canada left of center) stance. or that's what they run on, anyways. and once parties are elected (in canada at least) noone pays attention to them anymore blum.gif

I'm the only one who reads newspapers first?

 

I just can't stand the stuff on TV. It is just getting stupider and stupider. Especially with the stories over what celebrities are doing with their lives. Who the F___ cares?!?

Personally I like to take my news from any Big Company (Usually CNN) and then take the opposite side. This is why.

 

To the News Agencies there formula is simple:

 

News = Money

No News = No Money

Money = Stuff

No Money = No Stuff

 

Make News = Make Money

 

Questions?

 

Given that the news isn't responsible for most events, but there perspective tends to be what the majority of society takes as there opionoins.

 

Now if someone is innocent of a crime, but the news thinks they are guilty, people assume its right, the News tries to be judge / jury and executioner in a single swipe.

 

They get people that support there views on camera and ignorant -*BAD WORD*-s that disagree to argue the opposition. So even the ignorant guy is right, they can make him out to be a moron.

 

Given this isn't American news but never-the-less its news, I read on another fourm that people were outraged (France and it was spreading to American) about this bombing of the "innocents" in Iraq. American was "trying to hide" the clip which I had saw several months earlier online?? Ooh No they hid it well.

 

In the clip we drove by and blew these guys to -*BAD WORD*- and they had nothing to fight our Choppers. It was supported by a news clip. Well little did they know the News Agency decided to cut the clip short. In fact the men had just hidden weapons in this corn field which consisted of several BAZOOKAS. By the way when the attack started, guess where they headed, back in for the launchers.

 

Blarg whatever I'm done with this rant, its becoming incoherent.

I know that was kinda lengthy and off a bit, but anyone else feel that way?

 

Bottom line, News is biased.
