Updating Media Constraints I'm re-reading this thing, and have to conclude that the author is nuts.
what he said: It is important that the commission maintain the rule barring any owner from having more than one of the four top-rated television stations in a market
So, according to this, if the station suddenly spikes in the ratings, the owner is liable to divest a productive outlet?
Updating Media Constraints money: Given the large number of current exemptions, and the strong journalistic credentials of most newspaper-owned broadcasters in cities where joint ownership was grandfathered in...

Feds Charge ISP Workers in Gov't Scam
I know this is an old story, but the owner just pleaded guilty yesterday.
The reason I find this interesting is that searching our local fishwrap's website doesn't return anything concerning the case. Which is surprising, since Connect 2 was Staten Island's first big-time ISP, and except for TimeWarner Cable, the biggest.

I was one of their first customers. I got off the ferry one evening after work and saw their banner splayed across the building housing their offices and ran to their offices. I was finally going to be able to get straight access to the 'Net from a local company; I was giddy with local pride and relief that i didn't have to pay the farking phone tolls to use a 212 dial-up connection anymore. After I signed up I demanded a job from Oscar, one of the conspirators, who was a pretty nice dude.

I guess I'm gonna have to go down to their building in St. George sometime today and piss on their grave.

All this MediaWhore static is starting to really rattle my chains. But after reading tiny Tina Brown and her ridiculous column defending Sid, I'm starting to wonder how the hell ANY of these magazines and newspapers managed to not get rolled up and inserted in their editors respective rectums by irate readers.
Hey, Tina? Noticed your column couldn't find an American home. Everyone over hear is too tired of your suck-up bullshit.

Boston Globe Online / A jockey's ride in runaway media THIS pisses me off far more than the NYT and Bullshitter Blair. They threw the mud at this guy without anything resembling evidence.

Amish Tech Support: Were they covering the same speech? Too sad to be as funny as the name of this mighty fine site.
Robert Scheer's Canard-o-Matic I love the fact that this guy went to the trouble of vetting Scheer's columns so thoroughly, and presented the results so matter-of-factly, without adding any snarky comments along the way. He even offers a link to the columns so anyone can check them out and judge his results.

And another thing: who cares? Clinton "loathed" the US military. That led to 9/11. why should anyone outside your little corner of Asshat give a damn about your college-level rhetoric? (or is that "O Levels"? As in "O, m'god! I'm irrelevant!")

Look, "mainstream media" doesn't exist under the old definition. Rabbit Ears are listed on E-Bay as antiques. The "mainstream media" catches clues from scanning Drudge. And, on their websites, these tools are desperately trying to catch the "buzz" coming from bloggers.
Beyond the asshat headline, the fact remains that the big bastards have lost their stranglehold. I wake up in the morning and fire up the home office and get all my headlines before I make it to the coffee pot.

Dead-on.

OS X does that, with its UNIX underpinnings. If Adobe doesn't get their game on, stuff like GIMP will bleed them.

“Americans love having a guy as President, a guy who has a little swagger...”
damn right.
But now, little howling sheep-monkey numbnuts that should get its butt back in Buffalo and do some quality time repenting for the war doom and gloom, let's do a bit o' the Fisk to this tryst:
“We’re proud of our President. Americans love having a guy as President. A guy who has a little swagger, who’s physical, who’s not a complicated guy like Clinton or even like Dukakis or Mondale, all those guys, McGovern."

How were "all those guys" complicated?
Clinton=Hedonistic Asshat Liar (HAL).
Dukakis="Kill my wife, please!"
Mondale="Where's the beef?"
McGovern="Make believe I'm Bobby."

These folk were not complicated.

Women like a guy who’s President. Check it out. Women like this war.
PAGING MS. IRELAND! MS. IRELAND! PLEASE REPORT TO THE GREEN ROOM!

We’re not like the Brits. We don’t want an indoor prime minister type or the Danes or the Dutch or the Italians or Putin....We want a guy as President.
PAGING ANDREW SULLIVAN! MR. SULLIVAN? PLEASE REPORT TO THE GREEN ROOM!

And by the way, the Democrats for years have made fun of Republicans like Ike who defeated the Nazis and received the Nazi surrender, and Ronald Reagan who was probably the most evocative person for the World War II generation. And this guy, they always make fun of them for being simple. And guess what. They always win two terms and they’re always right.
PAGING BARNEY FRANK! MR. FR– YO, BARNEY! GET YOUR ASS OUTTA THE STAIRCASE AND GO HIT MAKEUP.

These guys would take a bullet for this guy, and I think that’s the big message tonight, Lester.
damn right. And they'll deliver a bullet or two, too.
