[Note ... Here are some quotes from the November 23rd TORONTO STAR article by Antonia Zebisias called "Michael Jackson Story is a Plot".]

But perhaps, along with their pals in the boardrooms of Big Media, they've hatched a scheme to dumb down the nation so that they can inflict their will upon the world while American voters are transfixed on "Bachelor Bob" burning the beef on the barbecue.

How else to explain last Thursday's orgy of Michael Jackson coverage on CNN; hours of choppercam shots of airport runways and police station parking lots; on the day that Bush was being trashed in effigy in London, 27 people were killed and 400 injured by truck bombs in Turkey, a U.S.-Canada task force report on the causes of August's massive blackout was released and who knows how many U.S. troops were becoming casualties in Iraq?

Was CNN merely pandering to the stupid for commercial reasons or deliberately avoiding the news? Has last spring's "That's Mili-tainment!'' revue reverted to "That's Info-tainment!'' Have the networks run so far from serious reportage on domestic, economic and international affairs that they no longer know how to do anything but scandal? Or; and here comes my conspiracy theory; is there something else afoot, and people are too catatonic to recognize it?


[Continued notes by yours truly ... personally I'd rather have real, complete world news then be forced to watch stupid film clips of Wacko Jacko. Celebrity scandal tidbits are NOT news, definitely not front page of some Republican, corporate-media controlled newspaper. These tidbits are better off briefly mentioned in the half page gossip section. Its not news! Like that reality tv crap ... it stinks like 3 day old diapers. Need I say more ... FIN!]
