Being someone who likes to watch what goes on in the backgrounds of movies and tv,I notice such things as Melissa will attest to as the Texas flag Hung upside down.During Bush 41 shows taking place in Fed buildings Would’nt have the Prezs portrait anywhere in the building same as the Attorny General.During the clinton yrs? Everywhere,hallways offices even once in a scene taking place in a bathroom.Also they where always displayed promently in the scenes. Actors to one side so both clinton and reneo where easyily seen, even by someone paying little attention to details.When Bush43 took office, on these same tv shows Nothing Nadda,Same office or reception area, hallway,Zip.In one show you could see two big white squares where the clinton reno pics where.No pics for 8 yrs. Crimminal minds NCIS,Without a trace ect. So lets see this upcoming season if suddenly Obama pics go up everywhere.Anyone willing to bet no? Thought not
Does artistic genius and contribution negate horrendous evil? No. This is how I've reasoned through the murky territory of great artists with personal failings: While they may be troubled and condemned personally, their art can stand on its own.
This podcast we hit everything from slasher films affect on the culture to the historic 9/12 march (interviewing the woman behind the 2 million rumor) to rules of engagement with Afghanistan, Iran's nuclear time table and a trade war with China.
I'm waiting for the public announcement by CNN saying that they want to clarify their editorial perspective and that they're biased to the left. Wouldn't that be freeing for everyone? Stop the pretending to be objective and just clearly state a bias. It's not like they're even attempting to report unfavorable Obama news.
The paper of record will probably not report the flaming ignorance of their own reporter, Stephen Farrell, but the British press is less inclined to cover for him. Remember the NYT reporter who got abducted and subsequently rescued? Remember how good the NYT was with keeping that secret, you know a secret that mattered when lives were at stake?
