Newspapers and the wind

My biggest problem with Mainstream Media (MSM) is its lack of diversity. Unless I have been asleep the past few years, this is an open secret. When there is a lack of diversity, group-think is inevitable. In the case of MSM, the group-think is, unfortunately Neo-con and AIPAC inspired.

The lack of representation of Blacks, Asian and Latinos is glaring in all areas of MSM from sun up to sun down and it gets tiresome on both the eye and ear. This is the norm. To give “those people” those good jobs may mean they would be able to move into your converted neighborhood. You know they will not attend your Synagogue but you don’t want to see them at your church either. They will shop where you shop and their children will go to the public school your children attend. They and their families will dine at your restaurants and by sheer coincidence may go on the same cruise. NO WAY!

In my opinion, MSM has pandered to and hired a slew of un-qualified persons. Ignorant would not be an understatement with only an ethnic identification. They could have continued to pull it off but enter the internet and blogosphere with writers who write superb articles with just as good credentials or better and do it for free. MSM feel a need to push those same non-qualified and ignorant whores onto the internet and they are spotted as soon as they put the dot to their opening paragraph.

Their writing is still poor and agenda driven. They continue to push group-think ideas and continue to be ignored. I can identify them by their constant efforts to throw nonproductive and negative wedges into conversations with stupid, and I do mean stupid arguments no sane person would knowingly attempt or think of. Nobody is as stupid as some of those people appear to be. Always “begging for an argument” is what I say. And there are their sustained efforts to polarize. In my opinion, these are the two give-a-ways.

I understand they are pushing for the internet and blogosphere to dominate the scene and start creating rules etc., to at first make access difficult and then impossible for the layman. I would suspect it would first start with “Things you can not say on the internet” and get laws passed. If it has to also go to the UN, so be it. They’ll go there to. A determined group. Mind you, these will be those horrible reporters backed by major MSM resources and WPFW radio still struggles and having issues with the FCC. Sad.

Fighting for the dignity of my Ancestors,
God bless Bill Gates, WPFW, C-Span and the spirits of the unborn for the help,

I wish to refine and extend my remarks
