The News Is Entertainment or Vice Versa
So there was French President Nicolas Sarkozy speaking before a joint session of Congress on CSPAN, waxing eloquently on French-American relations and his steadfast support of our over 200 year, sometimes-rickety friendship. As Nicky left the podium and walked the aisle, shaking hands and receiving congratulations, I thought I'd see what the other news outlets had to say about it.
Over on Fox News, Master of Weaselness Bill O'Reilly was getting all giddy talking about tomorrow's interview with Vince Vaughn. Vince Fucking Vaughn. Over at MSNBC, King of Weasels Keith Olbermann was pretending not to care as he salivated over the latest Britney Spears gossip. Britney Fucking Spears.
CSPAN: No commercials.
O'Reilly, Olbermann: Big pharma, auto industry, insurance, etc.
Is it any wonder this country is screwed?
Wake the fuck up, America. And I don't think I've ever said "fuck" on my blog before. But we are so fucked.

Wow, Bill. You're a good researcher. Or you have scary recall.

Lol, recall's pretty good, but the search feature on blogs has usually been my best friend.
