Subject: Here's where I launch into one of my rants |
|
I had these as postscripts on my last entry but it's just so big and so ranty that I decided to put it here. First: What's so wrong and horrible about being a liberal? We're watching this movie about how the FOX News Channel is...well...you know. Horrible. FOX News-like. So horribly slanted and not "fair and balanced". They just did this thing about FOX News and this kid whose father was killed on 9/11. He was on FOX News and this...asswipe...was just.... It pisses me off so much. The kid was trying to say how he didn't think it was right that we went into Afghanistan. And the news guy jumped down his throat! He was all "BUT THEY KILLED YOUR FATHER!" And the kid was all "No, they didn't. Some radicals did. Afghanistan didn't. The people didn't. The innocent civilians didn't. The people of Afghanistan didn't." And the guy was all "THEY DID TOO!! WHAT WOULD YOUR MOM THINK ABOUT THIS!? I HOPE SHE'S NOT WATCHING! WHAT WOULD YOUR DAD THINK!? YOU'RE ANTI-AMERICAN FOR THINKING THIS AND I'M A JACKASS!" He ended up kicking the kid out of the news station. He called security on the kid. They ran a follow-up the day after dissing the kid and another one six months later saying the kid said Bush killed his dad and he was anti-American and un-patriotic and blah blah. They ruined this kid's reputation. That's slander! It pisses me off. I already hated FOX News but this just makes me hate it more, like I want to stab people more. The kid's name is Jeremy Glick. I love him. Ug. I think I'm going to throw up now. This crap makes me sick. Don't watch FOX News, it will kill your dog. I hope you're not watching it. I hope you haven't been watching it. FOX News: Your voice of evil. I hate this grouping of people. You can't be all one thing and none of the other. People aren't black and white. I love you all. |

taoman1121 | 10-17-04 12:37am Great post. Nice to know there's at least a few of us liberals still around, even though it's not the "in" thing to be anymore... beautiful deviation on your last post as well. :-P |
shinigami | 10-17-04 1:29pm He really called himself a jackass? Nice. Anyway I really don't watch TV, well, news TV, so I can't say much, but all I can say is that I'd much rather read a British news paper than an American one. (New York Times though, not so bad.) |
sike-a-delic_grasshopper | 10-17-04 1:36pm There's nothing wrong with being a liberal. It's a wonderful, glorious thing. But it's good to have some conservatives to balance things out a little bit.

pamela | 10-17-04 6:31pm i'm skeptical of what you said happened word for word, it probably wasn't that bad. they probably do what i do, over exaggerate a little bit. ya know. you can't believe everything you hear. but if that did happen the way it did, that's horrible. so yeah. i still watch fox news cuz it's the most fair and blanced one i know of, but does tend to sway towards conservatism a tad. but i'm neither conservative nor liberal, i have beliefs with both, more conservative, but somewhat liberal.
