Media & Journalism - September 2007

Just read todays papers and some of the reporting is just plain wrong. One journalist states that Kate carries a cuddly rabbit, another that they checked the children every 15 minutes and another shows a picture of the apartment with a route indicating that the entrance was by the pool and not on the main road round the corner.
With such - albeit small - discrepancies how the hell can we get a proper grip on the story?

It doesn't seem to upset the major newspapers and TV networks that here is another blatant example of campaign funding scandal involving the leaders of the Democratic candidates. What if Norm had been filling the war chests of Giuliani, Romney, McCain and company? (And where did this chinaman get his money from anyway? Does no one think this is worth investigating?)

I recently received cart blanche from my University’s administration to start a newspaper for the business school of my institution.
As such I am currently going about the process of finding a qualified and willing editorial and journalist staff.
I am also concerned in about the tools and supplies I will need order to create a layout and design the paper.
Since I have never done this type of thing before, I would really appreciate advice from people who have knowledge of what tools are needed to create a successful college newspaper.

Declared a hero for saving numerous lives at Ground Zero, he was the janitor on duty the morning of 9/11 who heard and felt explosions rock the basement sub-levels of the north tower just seconds before the jetliner struck the top floors. His testimony, which was omitted from the 9/11 Commission, destroys the government's official story because it means there's a possibility explosives were placed in the buildings. Several eyewitnesses who were on the scene also claim they heard multiple explosions before the buildings collapsed.

At great risk to his own life, William re-entered the Towers three times after the first, North Tower impact and is believed to be the last person to exit the North Tower alive, surviving the building's collapse by diving beneath a fire truck. After receiving medical attention at the WTC site for his injuries, he then spent the rest of the day aiding as a volunteer in the rescue efforts.

It was probably in an issue from 2006. This young man went to Iraq, was in convoy when he hit a roadside bomb, which blew off his arm and face. His girlfriend couldn't recognize him when he returned home, but married him anyway.

Cause they aren't Portuguese? And their case is being mock as because they are just tourists? I've read they've got calls of Maddie's sightings and they just refuse to look into it, and call it is a possible a false track?

is it possible they are lazy and just don't give a crap anymore cause they don't want to waste their country's resources on foreigners?

Plus the McCanns leaving them kids without a babysitter alone is enough annoying in the first place. Sometimes when I remember that report, I felt that they deserve this >.>

I cannot believe what 20/20 (ABC) will do for ratings! Talk about the pot calling the kettle black! They criticized Dateline for making "dramatic" arrests for ratings while all the while 20/20 is bashing a good thing and starting a tiff for what, RATINGS! Who cares if the arrests are dramatic, who cares that "Dateline took over the operation" if it gets child predators off the streets then so be it!!! I also love how they made the show all somber when talking about the assistant DA that died "because of Dateline". HELLLOO, did I miss something here? We are talking about a man that took his OWN life because he likes to have sex with children! We are not talking about a poor little innocent man that was scared because the police were outside his house. The power of jeleousy is amazing. Maybe it's the appropriate time to say "Give me a break".

He is a big contributor to the Republican party. If you think you are getting the truth from any of his stations you need to begin to examine what you are being told a lot closer. Fox, CNN ABC and most all of the rest, they are all the same. They are feeding us propaganda designed to divide and conquer us and a lot of you are right there to eat it up. Don't believe me, find out for yourself.

Sometimes their arrogant self righteous OPINIONS are just too much to digest. It just seems to me that most of them(not all), are just wannabee players or coaches that couldn't or didn't make it in professional sports, so they used their college degree and/or what athlectic experience they may have, to get a job with some television network, sports magazine, or local newspaper so that they can feed their deflated damaged egos with the media spotlight.
The main thing is that I get sick and tired of their biased "opinions". How can they be so adimate about one certain team beating another?? Yes, some games are fairly easy to predict, but some are not. When sports Analyst makes a prediction about the outcome of any certain game, shouldn't they be held accountable for being wrong?? I mean after all, here they are scrutinizing athletes for not performing well, or making mistakes in their personal lives.
WHO IS HOLDING SPORTS ANALYST ACCOUNTABLE???
