the beatles are always right

so i got home and was going to study for physics until i discovered olsen had postponed our test till thurs. score. so then i decided to watch outfoxed. omg. so amazing. i love these documentaries that go up against the things that are wrong with this country. Micheal Moore does an amazing job of that in Bowling for Columbine and Farenheight 9/11 and the Outfoxed guy does too (i can't remember his name..greenwald or something like that).

Anyway, these guys go out there and they get the facts out. they interview reliable sources and try to figure out whats wrong with this country. they've taken the place of the traditional media which has become a group of a few large, conservative, business corporations focused on profits and cheap, irrelevent stories. it's so important for our democracy for these directors to go out there and shoot documentaries because the mediais neglecting its role of informing the public about important and relevent information.

Fox news is the perfect example. It's owned by Rupert Murdoch who also owns several other enterprises including but not limited to movie production companies, radio stations, satellite companies, and several other television stations. And these things aren't just in America. They're all over the world. It's estimated that his stations etc. are watched/listened to by about 4.7 billion people. Now call me paranoid or whatever but that's a bit discomforting to me. Especially when the person exerting the influence is has a very conservative political agenda and he is claiming to be an honest and fair journelist. He is nothing of the sort.

The Fox news channels is a abomination to the media world. It is disgusting and pathetic and dangerous because they don't separate the news from the commentary and editorials. They also bully their guests. The perfect example is Bill O'Reilly, renowned asshole liar of a talk show host, who started verbally abusing Jeremy Glick, a guest whose father was killed in the 9/11 attacks. See, Jeremey didn't support the war in Iraq or Afghanistan so O'Reilly started screaming at him and telling him to shut up. It was ridiculous.

I hate O'Reilly. Almost as much as I hate Ann Coulter. It's a close tie. See Ann is a lying bitch who does pretend to be an honest journalist. O'Reilly is a lying, rude, classless, perverted bully who just promotes the right wing agenda. i hate him. and the rest of the news media. i say, revolution!
