If it we...Fox News is not a for-profit enterprise. If it were to turn out that liberal messaging makes money and conservative messaging loses billions, Fox News would be conservative.<br /><br />The whole media hates making money. A strong liberal on TV stating simple truth would create the shock and controversy and yelling the media claims to love, yet it's never allowed. If the media wanted to make money, it would stop doing the stupid crap it does that loses money.steevehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12620735494191381865noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11363027.post-7081915507122973222014-09-16T10:22:33.162-05:002014-09-16T10:22:33.162-05:00There's an excellent article in WIRED by James...There's an excellent article in WIRED by James Bamford interviewing Edward Snowden.<br />http://www.wired.com/2014/08/edward-snowden/#ch-2<br /><br />Stuff like this and the Snowden story suggest the wheels are coming off some of the right wing's fantasy future. Reality's a bitch.<br /><br />Incidentally, one of the things that surprised and dismayed Snowden was the incompetency (and servile corruption) of many of his superiors as well as how obsolete much of the equipment was. bowtiejackhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03269786110593961195noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11363027.post-65797817574586212232014-09-16T09:24:09.090-05:002014-09-16T09:24:09.090-05:00"I'm just throwing it out there."

He makes the big Murdoch bucks. <br />The mistake really came when his TMZ guest's honor was dissed by Kurtz. You know the "put you down to elevate me" self esteeming.<br />Kurtz dissed TMZ as a business and his guest took it personal enough to swallow the right colored pill and wake up out of the FOX-matrix. <br />Kurtz continued to re-fail thinking his FOX Snark would out weigh Levin's defense of business honor.<br />Now I do not make a habit of watching FECES DROP, so I am unfamiliar with Kurtz' show.<br />But why didn't Howie employ the "CUT HIS MIC" as Fox has a corporate policy of doing?<br /><br />As getting through Rush's screener to punk Rush on air. I expect FOX will be experiencing this sort of snafu more often in the future.Robtnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11363027.post-47922902163292570552014-09-15T22:55:20.124-05:002014-09-15T22:55:20.124-05:00Didn't Lee Camp do something similar s couple ...

Can't resist..."Mistah Kurtz......Hi Drifty<br />Can't resist..."Mistah Kurtz...he dead." For better or worse (mostly worse) Levin exists at the level that tabloid journalism has become and Kurtz (who must believe that he covers journalism as it existed in the past or as an ideal in his mind, I'm really not sure) thought he was going to "expose" TMZ when in fact it was Kurtz who was exposed as a hypocrite on his own rotten show on the worst network. Great teevee, I say.<br />-SouthSide GTAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11363027.post-4435690766101524762014-09-15T20:43:20.788-05:002014-09-15T20:43:20.788-05:00*wow*

I *never* would have seen that and believe me, that was worth the whole day -- nay, week -- of fucked up news on the internet tubez just to see that shocked look on Howie's face when he was stripped nekkid and had his smug ass flown out their flapping in the breeze for all to watch and snicker.
