"Pockets of Evil"
Alex Witt, MSGOP "official" buzz-phrase reader, keeps referring to ongoing operations in Fallujah as assaults on "pockets of evil." Yup, you heard it right. "Pockets of evil." We're not only fighting "insurgents" and "terr'ists" in Iraq, we are also fighting supernatural "pockets of evil!". Why we've even discoverd "unarmed sleeper cells." Whatever the hell those are.
So please GE/NBC/MSNBC - pleeeeze - just stop pretending that you are an actual news gathering and dissemination organization. Please. Just knock off the f#&king bullshit will ya. You're not really kidding anyone out here. So stop trying to pretend that what you do constitutes the practice of investigative journalism or anything even remotely resembling that. Afterall, MSNBC, you and others like you (CNN etc...), are the cheeky wowsers who cultivated the "info-tainment" flower. So stick with tending to it. You watered it and weeded out any practice of serious genuine skeptical reporting a long time ago. Just admit that what you do is little more than operate as a propaganda hothouse for "official statements" - a large exhaust fan for Creel Committee styled crank and sloganeering - and a marketing PR shill-mill for corporate info-mercials dolled up as little sham-nooze items. Fertilized with the usual celebrity goo-goo manure (Headliners and Legends, Donald Trump updates, etc...) and cheeky chirping cosmetic counter "news" reader banter. So stop pretending to be something you are not. No one likes a phoney and a quack.
"No one likes a phoney and a quack." Uh, I take that back:
