I say nothing about all American media, I don't read the newspapers, but I see a lot of the televised news. CNN seems to be herald as the tool of the left so often I find it funny that certain violent brain dead rednecks around these parts can't see the obvious rightwing slant.

But then, the people who can't see it are the same people that make threads like 'why the left is so dangerous', because of a comment by one guy that is part of a right of centre party who said nothing more than they've said themselves on occasion.

I guess that's why they're called 'white trash' .




Gee Cit... for the guy who crys the most about Ad Hominum attacks, that seemed all sorts of Ad Hominumy....

You're the biggest whiney pussy in here.

On behalf of violent brain dead redneck white trash everywhere, I say Fuck You. Go back to Monty Python land and have some man sex. I know that's much more popular over there on that side of the pond. That way, when somebody asks "Hey. Where's Cit?", I can say "Oh, he'll be back, he's just out smokin' a fag", and they won't even know that I'm using the American definition of fag. It'll be our little secret.

Well, 6ixStringJack, if you believe that there is a "liberal media conspiracy" then I would say that you're buying what Spiro Agnew started selling three decades ago. Granted, it's a lot easier to blame things on liberals. But we haven't been in power in this country in quite a long time. Four decades worth of time.

I think that Fletch2's contributions to this thread hit the nail on the head. Unlike myself, I seriously doubt Fletch2 would classify himself as an American style liberal. So check out his post to Citizen upthread and see where that takes you.

If you really want to dig around you can look at media consolidation and figure out who owns what. Then you could take a look at advertising dollars and see who pays who for what. Then you could identify liberal positions and figure out which publications are promoting them. If you want a baseline try reading an issue of The American Prospect or Mother Jones (which are more progressive) or The Nation (which would be more old school liberal). And then compare those media with what is currently offered by the mainstream media. I think you'll see a world of difference.

But that would require a bit of work on your part.

* edited to add links to the magazines I mentioned:
http://www.prospect.org/
http://www.motherjones.com/
http://www.thenation.com/

And while I'm on the topic of assignments: If you're interested in one of the partnerships that Fremdfirma mentioned (in another thread) you can dig into the history of the Wobblies. They started out as a partnership between anarchists and socialists back around the turn of last century ( http://www.iww.org/culture/chronology/ )

* edited one more time to add: A mistake that many social conservatives make is thinking that because the mainstream media is to the left of them that the mainstream media is liberal. After looking at the positions of many social conservatives I have a Mal type response, "Well who the hell isn't to the left of them?"

Funny coming from the 'man' who has not the balls to start a fight in real life, so like his redneck friend AURaptor has too do it on the net. You both attack me, I fight back, but both being pathetic cowards, don't like it.

My suggestion to you is stop emailing my friends bitching about your pathetic life, go out and change it.

Oh, and stop being such a pussy you dickless little fuck, you want to start a fight go do it for real for once. Stop being such a coward.

"Boo hoo, No one likes me, my life is so hard, no one lets me smoke for free, boo hoo, they made me addicted to cigarrettes then upped the price, boo hoo, woe is poor little old me!"

Ooohhhh... rape my mom. That's an intelligent comeback from the omnicient Citizen. I would have expected more from you until I found out how old you are.

Yeah... I know what friend you're refering to too. The one who was making plans with me to go out there for a week or two that was going to show me all the sights to see in Liverpool and London until you whined to her about what a mean guy I am and how bad I make you feel inside. Because, let's face it, when somebody like me came around and made you question the fact in your tiny little mind that you know everything there is to know about everything, well... all there was left was a 25 year old wanker with a 3 inch penis who's going nowhere in life. I really have no idea how an ego that big resides in such a tiny little man. I'd pity you if you weren't such a snarky fuck to everyone all the time.

It's too bad I won't be making my way out there to the UK. I'd love to take you up on your offer. Somebody needs to split your ugly little troll face in two.

Till then, post on Cit... we all enjoy your know it all posts that I know you love reading over and over to stroke your ego, in leiu of the ability to masturbate the conventional way, since it's proven to be far more difficult than it's worth when you're as unfortunately endowed as you are.

Bye bye now... love you Cit!

Actually, I said you were a prick, which you've just elequently proven eh. You're so hard you can threaten people on the internet, wow, how incredibly hard are you? If she chose to fuck you off, it had nothing to do with me, and everything to do with how much of a brainless whiney little prick you are. You don't make me feel 'bad inside'. You make me laugh, a pathetic little man who has to threaten people over the internet to make himself feel big, and has to bitch about the cost of cigs to all and sundry. "Fifteen killed in car wreck", "yeah but they put the price of cigs up, boo hoo".

Funny how most people here don't have a problem with me, just those that never have anything intelligent to say, and spend all their time insulting people. One day you'll have to open your tiny little eyes and realise you're the problem eh.

Guess I hit a nerve, the truth hurts don't it.

I'm not the one whining to my friends about how I don't approve of a guy they're interested in. You're the cockblocker here, and that there is no denying. What's a matter Cit? Were you salty at me that she didn't find you attractive?

Sad, sad man....

And, as angry as you get me, I've never accused you of holding you down and raping your own mother. Wow... I don't even know if Kaneman would say something like that, but then again....

You're filthy and disgusting. You're officially off my radar as a complete waste of carbon, and a troll of the 1st degree.

Now that's humour. she wasn't interested in you, she's seeing someone else you egotistical wanker.

You don't make me angry, you make me laugh. You've said a whole lot worse to me, though. But it's alright when you do it eh.

If a troll thinks you're a troll and a waste of space, the opposite must be true

Or to put it another way - Bubbye, and good riddance.
