I have to admit that posting a blog about my opinion was
something I have been hesitant about. Over the last few days everything I have
been hearing in the media has changed my mind. So please forgive me if my first
post is a bit crude.
It is funny to watch all of the
different ways that people react to an election year, especially an election of
this magnitude. The media keep saying they are reporting the news fair and
balanced is as transparent as freshly cleaned glass(with streak free Windex). I
have been doing my best to try and watch all of the different cable news
stations to give them all a fair shake. It’s just unfortunate that they are not
doing the same for the American people. One of the most laughable news stations
I have to say would be MSNBC. It is hard to keep from flipping the channel
after only five minutes. MSNBC is slanted so far left that I have to give CNN thumbs
up during this election year, but only for one thing. That one thing is Glen
Beck. Now of course I can not leave out Fox News. In the past and currently Fox
News is always being accused of being slanted towards the right. Maybe they are
a little but at least they do it with professionalism. What I mean is that Fox
does not take it to playground level. Far too often the left slanted media
resorts to name calling and circle games of miss-direction. Maybe that is why
there are no big liberal media personalities like Rush Limbaugh or Sean
Hannity. No one could stand to listen to them.
It’s sad that in this day an age
with all of the means to get the information for yourself. Most people still
would rather have someone else think for them and tell them what to do. All I
can say is think for yourself and make your own choice with the right facts.
Like I said this is a warm up
blog I will get the train rolling here
in the next couple blogs
