About Me- Profile
I became a news junkie during the First Gulf War. I was glued to CNN and was thrilled with the reporting and analysis. As time went on, I began to realize that what was once reporting and analysis became fluff and drivel aimed at promoting an agenda. It happened slowly, over several years and for awhile I thought that I was the only one who noticed. The Clinton impeachment sealed it for me. I still loved to watch the news, but found myself frustrated and eventually sickened at the lopsided idiocy. I studied mass communication in upstate New York with a degree in Marketing Communications. I was taught to "run my finger down the Democratic row of the voting machine," by political science professors. I still recall a teacher asking me if I was one of those "born-again idiot Republicans" in the middle of the library. It was events like these coupled with the mass media's total agenda-driven claptrap that made me almost give up all hope. Then the internet opened up new ideas, Fox News while far from perfect is a step in the right direction and more people seemed to understand what was and still is happening. I respond to blogs and contribute only when I feel something needs to be added or or corrected, not to add personal agendas or attacks.
