New technology puts fresh spin on U.S. govt spin
WASHINGTON (Reuters) - From the Strategy for Victory in
Iraq to "Recovery Channel" TV on federal disaster relief, the Bush administration's spin operation is in high gear, aiming its message directly at the American public as it critiques the mainstream media
You're bypassing the traditional media ! You're a bad boy , Bush !
Or so the traditional news media reports.
There has been plenty to spin: since George W. Bush's August vacation i.... (insert half page tirade of all the things Bush has done wrong)
ok...so where's this new technology you mentioned ?
The Internet makes it easier now to bypass the Washington media. For example, to get out the government's message on hurricane relief, the
Federal Emergency Management Agency offers the Recovery Channel, which can be seen on local government access television stations in the United States.
Ok, you can't compose a decent thought. ("The internet" has nothing to do with running your own Television channel, television channels are traditional media)
In streaming video available online at http://www.fc-tv.com/clients/recoverychannel/prime.asx, there are high-gloss pieces on such matters as .....
Aha ! you finally , 80% of the way down the page... actually mention the Bush administration using a new technology some how.
Hmm.... actually...that one line blurb is the only "new technology" mentioned in this long an boring tirade against the bush administration.
Yup...this particular media is doomed and it knows it if it's writing pieces like this. Turn off the boob toobs, these guys are no longer reporting the news, they've stepped over the line into attempted brain washing and highly slanted articles.
Not that I particularily approve of Bush , but a "neutril , objective" news report should be just that. This isn't.
