View Full Version : Media in this country is pure garbage.
I'm having to watch BBC (the real one, not BBC America which I get on Comcast Cable) on my laptop to get coverage of the possible Islamic terror attacks in Norway. A bombing and a shooter.
None of the U.S. news outlets apparently give a damn, and the American version of the BBC is just plain crap.
We've had wall to wall coverage of the debt ceiling battle for weeks. I think we can focus on something else today. :rolleyes:

I haven't been tuned in.
Although, I do not care for most of the spin our media puts on most things they "report" on.

I flipped there, nothing. They were talking about the debt ceiling.
Did finally see a couple minutes on fox. quickly ended though.
BBC has had non-stop live coverage. :cheers:

A main-page article and a video-clip. NOT live streaming coverage.
Fox News on TV just said they were going to talk about it again in 5 minutes with some expert of some sort.

It is in the correct section. Where else would I post it? This is not a political thread, nor a religious one.

Even I can see that Obama didn't live up to his expectations, why would any American citizen outside his circle of friends want to re-elect him?
Note - I don't blame Obama for America's current situation, there's no way a one term administration could single-handedly do that much damage. The way I see it is he tried to fix a problem, he couldn't now elect someone who can.

1st black president and all. plus the MSM is too much "all in", and to not support him now would show their ignorance

President Obama is not to blame for much of the economic troubles facing the country...(although his political party is)
But,
He has mad it worse...much worse.
Under Clinton the fed spent 500 million per day
Bush...1.6 Billion
Obama 4.1 Billion
Do the math

Just so I'm clear - what the heck does this have to do with the bombing in Norway, the US media or the fact that Skia doesn't own a mirror?
