al jazeera

in passing.... (no not pissing, no matter how many times I empty a urinal....)

My father is listening to Al jazeera in the other room...

and for a minute I thought it was the BBC...

some clever communications student should do a study:

how does the standard format of the news distort? (even under the best of circumstances; even with the best of intentions)...

e.g., the "objective" voice of the presenter.... (CNN voices are ludicrous, with phony
facial gestures choreographed, or so it seems....)

just a thought

and that would mean we shall always need theater and other art forms to fill in what can't be said in the news format...
