Chuckle, good call.
Maybe it's just me but there seems to be a few more than usual interesting (read: questionable) posts here this morning.
Obama was a CIA plant and now Berta was the mad-genius behind Charlie Sheen?
>>Hell, even “The Walking Dead” has a new gay couple. <<
So, they eat each other? ;)
I have never seen TWD, which places it with Friends, Seinfeld, How I met your Mother, Breaking Bad and many other cultural icons.
The Loud family’s reality drama aired on PBS in 1973.

#13 that speech could have been given by the Bush’s, Soros, Clintons, McCain, Boehner, McConnell, etc etc or as some call them here the uniparty.
>>And our children will live, Mr. Beale, to see that perfect world in which there’s no war or famine, oppression or brutality — one vast and ecumenical holding company, for whom all men will work to serve a common profit, in which all men will hold a share of stock, all necessities provided, all anxieties tranquilized, all boredom amused.<<
Everyone will be Green Bay Packers fans?
;) :)
Network was quite a movie, but this article was strung together with bits of wire and hype. It’s a full on click bait article.
You are a member of the vast ecumenical holding company.
I am a Packer backer for years but don’t have the share dangit.
Was, as in ... she’s not anymore. Didn’t mean she was dead. Sorry about that.
Agreed. I just searched for a recent article about “Network” and this was the best I could find. It struck me, after seeing the movie again after all those years, how well it fits the narrative today from the liberal media and the hypocrisy of The Regime to try to stifle what little truth that comes from talk radio and the internet with its “net neutrality” tyranny.
I agree. I just saw this movie for the first time 3 years ago. It was great.
The media IS DEFINITELY the message. Marshall McLuhan got that part right.
