Meh, she's ugly to me.
I agree, but some guys dig that ****.

I think I'd make a ****ty brain surgeon. But the good news is that war-corresponing ain't brain surgery.
:mrgreen:
No, but it does take some serious skillz. And least when it comes to the Christiane Amanpours of reporting.
I agree, but journalism has failed to objectively do it's job since around the Vietnam war, they unfairly(to us) assume that they are automatically credible and so don't pay attention to objectivity, they don't "report to" us anymore, they "report at" us. Not all journalism schools are turning out these kinds of reporters, but most are, best advice my professors gave me was report the story, don't create the story, unless you are op-ed, in which case you "analyze" what is there. Long story short though, journalistic integrity has mostly been lost, and they therefore fail us as consumers of information.
I bet the daily show would hire me.

try the View.
Not a bad idea.:mrgreen:War correspondent for Naked News, maybe?
Yep, there are still professionals, but a good bit of todays reporting is crap.I don't disagree. But there's so good stuff out there... you just have to find it.
Ever wonder why the 'professionals' always make a point of mentioning that someone was killed with a "semi-automatic handgun" instead of just "handgun" or "pistol"?Yep, there are still professionals, but a good bit of todays reporting is crap.
It's all about the wording, newspapers are famous for changing the way certain things are reported, such as fatal accidents, if there were two priuses, then the headline would be "couple killed in tragic weekend auto accident" however if a truck, SUV, or other gas thirsty vehicle were involved it would read like "SUV crash kills two over weekend". Guns, same thing.Ever wonder why the 'professionals' always make a point of mentioning that someone was killed with a "semi-automatic handgun" instead of just "handgun" or "pistol"?
The people who made folks heroes out of
Tawana Brawley, and Anita Hill have room to complain?
I'd rather watch Joe's reports........ :rofl
Did you turn down a 6 figure job in order to become a plumber? If you did you are certifiably insane.
Why be amazed? Its a religion for them, apparently.Like I already said, do not dare to question The One.
It's amazing how pissed off you people get when The One is challenged, criticized, or even asked a difficult question.

not necessarily, my dentist has a brother who owns a plumbing company, and makes more money at it, but the dentist says his plumber brother has paid for it with back ailments...
For the same reason that SUVs run over people and not drivers.Ever wonder why the 'professionals' always make a point of mentioning that someone was killed with a "semi-automatic handgun" instead of just "handgun" or "pistol"?
Paris has skills as well, and the public has paid her lots of cash to expose herself and her general lack of common sense. In a capitalist society one talent is not prized more than another except by one measure: money.It appears to me that Joe is going to milk every drop of extension time from his 15 minutes fame has Paris Hilton has. At least Joe actually has job skills that relate to the real world.:2razz:
