When I want news I can trust I have to find it myself
When I want to know what the government wants me to know ...
I can always watch CNN, Wolf Blitzer, Gupta and company.
When I want to know what the dumbed down in this country are expected to know ...
when I want to know what mushrooms are given to know ...
I could tune into Faux News.
We've almost decided to cancel our cable TV and restrict all three sets in our house to DVD's ...
... risk living without the higher information available thanks to Big pharma, Big business and government
manipuation and non-step distraction frpom what's really important by repetitive entertainment and sensational but shallow
news of titillating import.
But if we take the boob out of toob, what happens if a tsunami threatens Willapa Bay? Wouldn't we need
TV to update?
You know ... "we interrupt this hard-on commercial to bring you breaking news about a tsunami headed for Willapa
Bay."
But then isn't that what radio is supposed to do?
And doesn't the county sheriff have a phone system to warn residents of this kind of stuff?
Don't we need to know amber alert stuff and what armed and dangerous felon or registered sex offender is on
the run out of Seattle or Portland and headed our way?
Heck, I don't know. I think I'll take a chance on telephone, internet, radio and watching from the beach.
At least if I watch from the beach what I see will be real and not brought to me by Big Anything but God.
