All we need to do is look through out history at various propaganda campaigns, again dispensing of controlled information.

In one of my college public relations courses they showed an investigative story on a company from 60 minutes. When it was over the teacher ran the WHOLE thing with the stuff they took out and wow what a slant.

Those were the points that stood out in my mind right now. I read the news all the time and it's always changing...

Well, two more people I'm glad I'm not. Tiger Woods and Charlie Sheen.
I told Chow, you know Aniston, Pitt and Jolie are feeling pretty relieved right about now.

Is is really news worthy to talk about Tiger Woods as much as the "mainstream" media did??

Honestly, no wonder half the world thinks we're a bunch of buffoons.

We, as a culture, are too busy at the f ing mall.
