The Media Research Center, a conservative media watchdog organization led by Brent Bozell, has launched a petition drive demanding mainstream media outlets tell the truth and "rededicate themselves to unbiased reporting".

Yeah, I saw that. Incredible.

[jdawg2010]

I will. Sorry, still trying to learn my way around here. Actually, I do not have a blog, or a myspace page. I write for a site called examiner.com, which is not a collection of blogs, but a place where citizen journalists can go to write.

The site you linked above belongs in our Bloggers forum.

O, be some other name!
What's in a name?
That which we call a blog
By any other name would smell as rancid.

That's like asking insane people not to act insane.

And a toilet is a place where they can go to...

And play it gromky choodessny, oh, my brother!

It’s not so much Big Media lies, it’s that they only tell one side of a story. The half-truth is many times more harmful than an outright lie.

Leaves me with a lump in me gulliver.

[Salamander]

A lump in your gorlo, maybe?

[or did somebody commit a bit of the old ultra-violence upon your gulliver with a cane?]

;-D

[50mm]

Now I'll have to watch it again for a refresher.

[Salamander]

Nah.

Just keep a good NADSAT dictionary on your links bar like I do.

Never know when you’ll need it.

1. When you say that my link takes you to a myspace page, you are lying.

2. Your responses are juvenile, offensive, and they are lies.

If you cannot respond to me in a civil way, then please do not bother responding to me at all. I am here to engage in civil discourse, not deal with shitheads like you. I am writing to you privately, so let’s keep it here.

Myspace or waste of space, whatever, it is a blog page that looks like a 12 year old's Myspace page to me, that you are pimping on FR and we FReepers are sick of you blogpimps. You do not care about discourse, you care about blog hits so screw you.

If you cannot say it in public don't bother to FReepmail me coward.

[50mm]

yes, I *know* that “normal people”...

Yes, I just bookmarked it.

Does this mean that we have to learn yet another language to understand and speak to you?

I’m game! Thanks for the link. Saved in a prominent place.
