Tuesday, July 29, 2008

Enjoyed watching you check Rick Davis for making a “bad call.” (Attacking Obama on the Troops issue at the end of his trip.) Joe had to “hold you back.” That was fun. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r6p5KTOGsDs Here’s the deal. A couple of months ago I mentioned to Obama Girl and a bunch of my personal friends that we […]

Publishing Over At AngryJournalist.com

Thursday, July 24, 2008

I haven’t sent anything in to angryjourno in a long time. Perhaps because I haven’t been angry enough lately. Here’s what I submitted. Maybe they’ll keep it, maybe they won’t.

War, Inc. Reviewing the reviewers.

Sunday, June 15, 2008

War, Inc. Reviewing the reviewers. Corporate media is not going to handle John and Joan Cusack’s film, War, Inc., very well for a few reasons. 1) Don’t know how to review satire 2) What to make of a movie that makes fun of THEM 3) Pressure from corporate structure above for reviewers to pan such […]

Go See War, Inc.

Sunday, June 8, 2008

If you are anywhere that War Inc is playing I urge you to see it. If not, then perhaps get involved in the “leg work” toward helping it grow in grassroots fashion. You see, John and Joan Cusack had picked satire for its genre, and thought surely it would reach a very large audience and […]
