JFK, El Paso, and a Suitable Parody

Sunday, November 23rd, 2008

Here, Tastes Like El Paso has a brilliant parody of El Paso Times’ rather curious, and decidedly offbeat, out of left field local take on JFK’s assassination. I don’t think there was too much local about JFK, no matter what Ramon Bracamontes may think.

Well, a byline is a byline. And every MSM journalist knows that clippings make a resume, and resumes make new job opportunities. Especially in the emerging online journalism business. Which is, you know, where every MSM journalist secretly would like to go, if they could just get over that darn CSS evening class.

When Is the Best Time for a Strike?

Sunday, November 23rd, 2008

Whenever Hollywood’s Screen Actors Guild wants one.

The dearth of creativity and acting talent begs for a strike. A time-out, if you will. I won’t even go all political and say that the market doesn’t bear Hollywood’s fringe-left mentality, lest Congress hear about it and bail them out, too.

If Hollywood would just go away for awhile, some good old-fashioned Left Wing healing could begin.

And besides that, Hollywood is right behind mainstream print media in going out of business. That might not be such a bad thing, either.
