Here is a story Matt Drudge won't put on his headlines...
News Corp set to trim jobs in the US and UK
This story really hurts to write. A right wing ass like Rupert Murdoch is not doing very well..sniff...sniff..
but really here is the bottom line.
If we want hard core media and reporting to continue in this country, we have to subscribe to journals such as Time Magazine, The New York Times, Newsweek, etc.
Furthermore we have to patronize sponsorship at their site (through links) to keep these guys afloat. If every Koser subscribed to written media we would have much more say when jerk offs like William Kristol can write editorials for the NYT.
Now for all of you worry trolls, Obama hasn't even finished filling his cabinet posts with staff. I am willing to give him four years to fix the mess GWB (I won't speak his name and nor will my children) and the right wing policies put us into. I would like to see the Democrats start carrying "a bigger stick" when assholes like Mitch McConnel come out and spew their right wing talking points that could be found on Fox News or the The Drude Report. I'm willing to give Obama a little time.
It is obvious the right wing in this country is looking to 2010 in hopes of saving the Senate. They are not going to agree with the Democrats or reach accross the aisle in a bipartisan effort. They want to make Obama look polarizing like they did with Clinton in the 90s. It's their strategy to make the Democrats look disorganized and out of touch. We are holding all the cards, we have everything to lose if we fall in their trap. Hold the lines my friends and see the bullshit for what it is. I hope the GOP hold the Democrats feet to the fire on fiscal matters, and not allow for left wing cronyism and corruption to occur. We just have to make sure the right wing spin (ie Rush and Hannity talking points) don't dominate the dinner tables in our country.
Change will be a marathon, not a sprint. If we are patient and play the game right, the GOP will fall flat on their faces in 2010 as well..
Patience : )
