Someone once said that, but I can’t remember who. CNN and FOX News talking heads (plus many more) are not reporting news, they are providing commentary. Never forget that.
If you haven’t read this, DO IT NOW (I know it’s long, read the first page and you’ll see why he was fired.) More importantly, if you haven’t heard of it whats. wrong. with. you?
I hate those people who use the offense claiming that people have never served their country like so-and-so. It’s bullshit. This is a voluntary war. Yes, we would all be a little, OK a lot more, pissed off it there was a draft, but it doesn’t look like one is happening anytime soon.
People are giving Hastings guff about on- and off-the-record reporting. The fact that he hasn’t served his country like McChrystal did and none of them are sure what to do with the fact that a music magazine broke such a story like this. I know I hate Rolling Stone, and I still do. And I still hate Jann Wenner. But something like this usually doesn’t come along, ever. I give it to him. But maybe just this once. Let’s see what else he can do.
Remember when I said, pay attention, what else could you be doing? This moment is kinda like that.
