  • RU Sirius asks some in the know: “Is it Fascism Yet?” (c/o Douglas Rushkoff)

  • Losing the propaganda war, but not the war. Of course, hearts and minds are the war, otherwise you’re an occupying force, right?
  • Some perspectives: Truth in the Age of Citizen Journalism and opposing media conglomeration. Seems to me that the People’s Media Company is a corporate attempt at appealing to the community aspect of the internet. Can you create that artificially? I wonder.
  • Rosie gets racist. It’s silly and childish. It’s meant to be funny in that way. But, it’s offensive too, and since it is denigrating, it’s racist.
  • Iraq Study Group… what the media isn’t telling you.
  • United 93 has been named Best Picture of 2006 by the New York Critics Circle, which is sort of a mystery to me. I thought it a pretty mediocre film. Obvious and manipulative in unoriginal ways. Unremarkable at best. Not that critics have a clue about such things… And, the producers have been pushing for awards for awhile. Such is the way of the movie biz…
