The Mainstream Media Isn't Just Irrelevant

FAIL
It's Criminally Negligent
The last thing in the world this guy is going to tell you is anything about the world approaching important, germane or passably useful. Watching major news purveyors in this country, even to gauge how bad they've become, will eventually lead to thoughts of Lewis Black, Aerosmith performing at a Superbowl half-time ... and I'll have to go look for a spoon.*

RT may not be as seamlessly produced as the major media properties the herd pays attention to, but that actually works in their favor for me. The slicker the package the more suspect is the contents. I'm sure Lauren Lyster and Alyona Minkovski will cover wider angles in greater depth over what's been happening in Greece during the last 48 hours than all of this weeks “news” programming put together.

So go watch them tonight. (TYVM.)
