A Status Report

Since posting my last article I have been very busy preparing for a change of residence. I’m moving to a nearby senior living community. I’ve been in my present residence almost twenty-two years, and it is amazing how much junk can be accumulated in that period of time. And it’s not all junk. It takes […]

No Surprise

The attempted assassination of Donald Trump was no surprise. Although the fate of the Pennsylvania gunman might discourage further attempts, there are many people who wish Trump dead. Someone else may give it a try. The villification of Trump by the left-wing media knows no bounds, and those who rely on that source for their […]

Liars!

The recent confirmation of Joseph Biden’s debilitating senility also exposed the mainstream media to be what many of us have known for years — a intellectually and morally challenged collection of syncophantic liars. There are exceptions of course, but unfortunately not many. Most of the good reporters were pushed out of the big newsrooms. The […]

National Public Radio

National Public Radio (NPR) is an American non-profit media organization headquartered in Washington, DC. It serves as a national syndicator to a network of over 1,000  public radio stations in the United States. It differs from other non-profit membership media organizations in that it was established by an act of Congress and receives some of its funding from the […]

A House Divided

As I have noted previously, it is interesting how persons with reasonable intelligence, good educations, and similar values can look at current events and arrive at opinions that are so diametrically opposed.   One’s viewpoint is largely dependent on his or her news sources. An example is afforded by different perspectives on the 2020 election.  Trump […]

Ministry of Propaganda

Have you ever noticed that different reporters on different networks often use identical terminology in reporting a news story. I first became aware of this in 2000 when George W. Bush was running for President.  Many of the mainstream, left-leaning commentators considered Bush an intellectual lightweight.  When he chose Richard Cheney as his running-mate they […]

Finally Over?

Too bad the election season is ending in riots.  There is no excuse for violence.  We are a nation of laws.  The law gets it wrong on occasion, but we must accept its decisions.  Trump alienated many of his supporters by his refusal to accept a result that appeared inevitable. Now, after the outbreak of […]

Exposed!

For more than a year reports have been swirling around less well-known news channels and the blogosphere about shady dealings by Hunter Biden, Joe’s son, with a corrupt Ukrainian oil company and with Chinese communist operatives.  This began while Joe Biden was Vice President. Considerable amounts of money were involved, and some of these reports […]

Journalistic Woes

Recently, McClatchy Company, the publisher of the Miami Herald, The Kansas City Star, The Charlotte Observer, and dozens of other newspapers across the country filed for bankruptcy protection. The newspaper industry has been devastated by changing technology that sent the vast majority of people online in search of news. While McClatchy and others have pushed […]
