MJ thoughts …


It’s been a strange end to June …

Iran, neda, ed mcmahon, farrah fawcett,  MJ and others not mentioned on tv

the Media continues to focus on negative MJ coverage,  make comments like this is intriguing info  …

watch and listen to all the TV FODDER and SPECULATION but don’t put any credibility in anything being said until you hear it from the Family spokesperson or actual FAMILY MEMBER

meanwhile, his family has to listen to the various news outlets release reactionary comments that may or may not be truths … why was he still in a financial crisis with all the money he made?  speculation is he may have had people using him and spending his money, giving him bad advice, enabling him,  not providing direction and no interventions when it was needed.           let justice be brought to those if foul play is indeed the case

Taibbi and other members of the Media


My opinion on  sensationalizing the death of anyone?

it’s disgusting but gotta say i turned the channel and station after station only made  comments about what was bizarre, strange and weird side of this man’ life…  made me upset

the man was dead or dying, these vultures needed to have some f’ing RESPECT for what was happening … and chose not to

listening to taibi and other commentators not only disgusted me with the nasty negative comments about michael jackson and his past …  it is disrespectful to not only MJ but to his family and kids

i accept taibbi’s opinion, but again it showed a disregard of  the death of a human being …  and totally unacceptable …
keep the negative awful comments to yourself  during  this time

i hope the people from the hospital who leaked info to any media companies get into trouble as well as any medics who called cable stations … totally unacceptable

roland burris … org post 5/17


is … guilty of a lot of things but of pay to play?

Blago has been under surveillance for quite sometime … if burris was guilty i believe he would not have gotten this far,  the authorities (the FBI) would not let burris go through the process of getting elected if the tapes or transcripts had evidence of  pay to play … no matter how hard chris matthews uses his cable slot time to manipulate the fate of RBurris …

his Political behavior just seems par for the course … just on the edge of being legal.

when burris finally got into office … it was apparent his appointment was only going to last until 2010 anyway

public polls? are the numbers accurate?


i didn’t get polled…

i will admit i don’t put much merit into Polls because the sample could be biased … who did they call? was the average person included? what part of the country did they call and how many were republicans?

53% voted Obama into office and according to this  poll 56% give or take a -3/+3 which for me could be a plus 59/60% and the minus 53%   the very number that voted him in …          Right?

jus sayin

MSNBC lineup… or just a sad joke?


i am just one of several million who watch MSNBC on mainstream tv(nbc) cable and on-line …

BUT …

i— would like to ask for a ” call to action” a massive email, twitter, facebook whatever to get the line-up of … reporters? changed

give tamron hall and david shuster more time and  less time to the morning giggle crew after morning joe …

they have— on several occasions proved to me to be less than worthy.    i love a good laugh but when the secret laughs or secret comments interfere with the news  story … you have to wonder

there are many qualified reporters … tamron hall and david shuster are good reporters maybe better than contessa and her morning friends …

i stopped watching morn joe … it’s too relaxed, somewhat cynical and whole lot of jaded behavior going on … there are many unemployed people in the US and while cable news among other things lacks discipline … most of us like news we can actually use… i had to turn the channel

i vote to keep the giggle crew on in the morning but give david shuster and  tamron hall more time to do the real news .

NEWS alert *** lol

for those who didn’t know,  MSNBC hired Dylan Ratigan formerly with CNBC for the 9-11am set… 2 hours?  hardly an improvement
