Common... People... Spock! :: Music

Oh my. "Common People" by Pulp is one of my favorite songs of all time (probably top 20, at least). Along with Ben Folds, William Shatner has apparently just covered it.

Fear and Friends :: Issues

My good friend Tim posted an excellent blog regarding this morning's Fox and Friends, which we were both (un)fortunate enough to watch. Go read what Tim has to say.

My personal view on the topic: Fox continues to pander to their primarily right-wing audience while neglecting their obligation to be, and let's not kid ourselves here, fair and balanced. (And yes, I do think private media agencies have an obligation to be responsible journalists so long as they are presenting themselves as such!) What's worse, they participate regularly in what basically amounts to fear-mongering. After all, as the Broadcast Arm of the Bush White House, Fox News clearly benefits from an America whose citizens are paralyzed by fear.

It makes me sick.
