The IMCT Media Criticism Thread

I am willing to take over running CNN, for anyone willing to install me into the position. I've often thought the network needed a more "ska forward" approach.

Bait-and-switch. Next thing you know, it's The Smashmouth-Pennywise News Hour with Dave Matthews.

I don't recall you being a Pennywise fan, is this true?

"Fan" is probably a strong word. I've seen 'em a few times when touring with other bands I like or at fests. They have some decent tunes.

I liked them a lot more when I was in Jr. High and High school, but I lost interest in them when I began expanding my tastes. I agree they do have a few bangers, though, especially on Full Circle.

All the media channels are treating the Murdoch retirement story like a death. If only.

It's frustrating as I have a killer "Gotcha!" meme all ready to let loose the second the old fucker croaks it. He'll probably outlast me so i guess I'll just have to pass it on to next of kin.

I've listened to so many snivelling Murdoch hacks talking about what a wonderfully benign influence he was on British journalism today that I'm wondering whether there was a similar agenda to whitewash Thatchers monstrousness after she snuffed it. In my head, the whole day was one long joyous chorus of ding dong the witch is dead. I think i just blotted all the rest out.

Perhaps because Thatcher was a very public presence and people could tie events to her that it's harder to paper that over for many. Murdoch's evil comes off as more indirect.
