He has no facts, he uses other peoples opinions and shouts them over the guests that are telling him the facts. That is like most right-wing ding bats though.

Social News: On May 28,1599

A sunny warm evening tonight Julius Caesar and his wife Calpurnia have decided to throw a party at a near by banquet in Rome. The party is a ‘goodbye’ party for Caesar because he will be departing to a military battle in Spain. Therefore, family and friends have arrived with and food and drinks as a way of celebrating together. The family and friends in attendance where Octavius Caesar ( Julius Caesar grandnephew &heir), Mark Antony ( a loyal friend and supporter of Caesar), Brutus ( Caesar’s best friend), Portia ( Brutus wife), Cicero ( a Roman senator), Lepidus, and more. When Portia entered Calpurnia couldn’t help but notice that the gold beaded dress Portia was wearing was the dress that she was looking for to wear for this special event .

I see it as an unfortuante, tragic, FREAK occurance. But I feel like the media always has to make a tragic story like this into something FAR bigger. What do you think?

Those guys must study and know their audience but does such low life actually watch their "news" shows? Do journalism schools teach this to the students? How low can it go?

If somebody is sending his/her articles to a private newspaper, should he expect financial incentives regarding his/her journalistic contributions? There is no contract, no prior promises of financial reward, and the newspaper can cancel these articles, I mean they don't have to accept his articles. Should he receive any charges or financial incentives for his/her first articles on a private newspaper or he should wait to publish many articles and after that ask them for financial rewards? What could be the system of financial grants in private newspapers for novice writers?

To lead in each news story a series of beeps is played. Its an obvious attention getting ploy but to me its like nails on a chalk board. Especially since this sound effect is getting over used.

The sound guy must have got a new sound effect on Christmas and is playing with it every time he gets a chance....

So What is your opinion of the Beeping Sound effect on CNN Headline News. Do you like It, OR Should CNN stop it?

It seems that the press has done us a disservice by limiting their coverage to front running candidates so early in the race. I think even the Democrats could field an acceptable candidate if we could hear about them.

I would like to hear more about what the candidates say than where they are saying it and what's in the background of their campaign ads.

It would be informative to hear news reports about inconsistant positions taken by candidates and their explainations of those inconsistant positions.

Why can't we get this type of information early in the campaigns rather than hearing half-truths during the campaign only to hear the counter half-truths in attack ads when its too late for the candidates to respond with replies that can be checked out?

Black on white crime is ever as much racist as white on black. However, the cases that the media ignores these crimes even as they tend to be alot more brutal. This article really puts things in prespective:

For many years, Al Sharpton has unashamedly almost always intentionally infused his extreme racism & bias into virtually every issue that he has ever become embroiled in.Sharpton falsely accused Steven Pagones of raping Tawanna Brawley. Pagones was acquitted but lost his job + wife & his family was threatened all as a result of Sharpton's false accusations. Pagones won a 5 Million Dollar Civil suit against Sharpton's slander & today,20 years later, Al still owes this money to Pagones-The FBI has many videotapes of Sharpton attempting to buy over Fifty thousand dollars worth of Cocaine from FBI Undercover Agents.- The FBI is investigating Sharpton's possible illegal use of campaign funds in his 2004 " Presidential Run. " - Now Sharpton has scheduled a " march " in New York in January, 2008 to " protest " the conviction of a 45 year old male, black who was convicted recently of shooting & killing a 17 year old male, white.-Does Sharpton have any scruples or conscience at all ??
