Making up the News

This past week has been a bonanza of non-news news. Here are three examples of stories that are not news. And because the mainstream media is lazy or too cheap to actually do research and report of stories, every major media outlet repeatedly reports the same story. This repetition MAKES it a story. A story devoid of substance.

Bush has plan for nuclear attack on Iran
Of coarse he has a plan to nuke Iran! That's he job - to have a plan. He got a plan to invade, too. He's also got a plan for airstrikes. He's got a plan for naval strikes. He's got plan for preemptive strike. He's got a plan for a provoked strike. The military's job is to have a plan for everything just in case we need it. Because we don't want to be making it up on the fly. That's why we had a plan to invade Iraq when Bush became president. That's why Clinton had a plan. By the way, we have a plan to invade Syria. Have a plan to invade Saudi Arabia. So when the news gets slow next time, don't be shocked when these are your headlines.

Bush leaked Confidential Information
It's not a leak. The president declassified information and make it public. He can do that. He did it because of the disinformation in the media. He made it public - for everyone. The information debunked the op-ed by Joe Wilson in the NYT.

Gas could be $3.00 a gallon this summer
Yeah, and it could be $2.00. Could. I call this "preemptive" news.
