I reckon I should have said "news" media?VMI77 wrote:If only it were so....but it isn't. If that were true then there would be many prime time shows seeking to get the entertainment dollars of millions of gun owners. There is no way coverage would be 99% anti-gun if it was just about the money. Homosexuals comprise a very small percentage of the population, and the constant promotion of homosexuality alienates millions of viewers, yet there is NO anti-homosexual programming. There is zero diversity of thought in the television and movie industry, which is why those in the business who have conservative leanings keep low profiles and you see lists of Hollywood "conservatives" because they're so rare.Oldgringo wrote:Actually, today's media doesn't care about who eats whom.

And that's the way it is. Good night.
You're right in that between the sensationalist and biased news and prime time TV, this viewer has been alienated with the unmitigated hogwash of so-called "reality" shows, various sitcoms and the sexually implicit "family dramas". It's a good thing that our TV's came with off-on switches.

Re: Mass Shooting in Connecticut-THREAD NAME CHANGE
That's pretty much the conclusion I have come to as a result of my youngest son being struck and killed by a car on his way home from school on the Monday before Thanksgiving 31 years ago. The really hard part for these bereaved CT parents is ahead of 'em when all the well-wishers go back to their lives.pcgizzmo wrote:

I got in trouble for talking about Religion on here not too long ago. I won't say any more but it seems to me God didn't do much to take care of these little kids. Someone in that massacre is probably thanking God he spared there kids. The flip side to that is God didn't look out for the other ones. Hmmmm... Maybe things just happen and God doesn't have anything to do with it.
