charlie sheen is the root of all evil.

just on the news... they did a segment on how the president killed a fly during an interview. on cnn. (yes i made a sentence of 'on cnn' because it is intolerable that a news station dignified itself with this garbage)

this is a perfect example of why other countries hate us.
how idiotic... self indulgent...silly...and superficial....
there are other things going on in the world. IMPORTANT THINGS. i dont care if the president took a shit on a fly during an interview. i want to know what he is doing to better the country. if the news is trying to tell me that he is ridding the world of annoying bugs... then i may be slightly interested. but only slightly....because it has nothing to do with anything of value.

things that should be on the news: epidemics, floods, fires, mass murderers, world events, wars, things that involve more than a hundred people...
basically you get the idea. things that are actually news. pretty self explanatory...you would think.

since 'journalists' dont seem to have a clue what news is. i will explain what is NOT news... and what they have been getting americans to think is news.

for starters: news is not about one man and a bug. he is the president... granted... but... he isn't a god... he is an elected official... who is there to finish the executive part of legislature... he isn't even who runs this country....its a democracy... WE THE PEOPLE.... less we forget.
ok... now... also... another thing involving the president that isn't news: the president's family getting a pet. RIDICULOUS. these things should be saved for youtube or... anything on the 'e' channel.
anything starting with 'speidi' or spencer and heidi... isn't the news.... or really any other mentally degenerate couple. ie: bennifer, brangelina, lindsay lohan and her crabs.... unless they go on a killing spree, or die... oh please let them die... they shouldn't be on the news.

i mean...really shouldnt we be embarrased of our news channels?...
i mean americans should already be ashamed that someone let a walking cesspool named 'new york' be on our television....

if i wanna watch innane ridiculous stories about accidental celebs... i turn on 'e' or 'bravo' or 'vh1'
i do not turn on cnn... ok... to be honest... i dont turn on cnn anyways... paul does... but... thats besides the point.

stuff like this fly story make people say, 'huh...slow news day...' but the fact of the matter is...
IT SHOULD NEVER BE A SLOW NEWS DAY. there is always something of importance going on. ex) the war! we have americans in another country fighting for us... and they will maybe mention a tiny blurb about this at the end... like... sargent someone's mom says happy b-day....yet they spend 15 minutes blabbing about how the president has ninja like bug killing skills.... and then something about peta's reaction.
(let me pause to let loose on another tangent... PETA GET OVER YOURSELVES. animals are food. yes torturing animals is wrong. but... they are food...so... get over it.)
people are losing thier jobs, civil liberties are being infringed upon, inflation is growing and paris hilton is looking for a new bff damnit....

ugh... i cannot even complete a thought about this whole topic cuz i start getting annoyed with closely related topics and i get carried away into randomness.

ok. what i have to say is.
the news is a joke, swine flu= overrated(possibly a cover for something else...i smell a conspiracy) and... yes... here is the biggest point...WE AS AMERICANS SHOULD BE KEEPING OUR NEWS RESOURCES ACCOUNTABLE FOR KEEPING US INFORMED ON IMPORTANT THINGS, NOT THINGS TO MAKE READERS/VEIWERS HOOKED.... HAPPENINGS THAT ARE IMPORTANT FOR HUMAN BEINGS AND OUR RIGHTS AS AMERICAN CITIZENS, WE OWE IT TO OURSELVES AND OUR CHILDREN TO WISE UP...AND FOR HEAVENS SAKES... TAKE 'TWO AND A HALF MEN' AND ANYTHING STARRING CHARLIE SHEEN OFF THE TELEVISON.

done. where did the rest of my gin and tonic go?

  2. I agreee - Most of the news channels talked about the President's fly killing abilities for DAYS - like he was something SOOOO special because of it. But then, remember, that is the channel that had a news-reported get goosebumps up and down his legs when Obama spoke prior to the election - and he told about it over and over.... SICK~!
