  robust public media

  "...It could build a robust public media in the mold of the BBC. "

  Splendid idea! Let's call it PBS and NPR.

  Ans a big fan of this bill would be...

  I'd love to see the Senator's reaction to this.

  Re: On car chases as violent crimes

  I'm guessing that only a small minority of car chases do not carry a risk to life or property.

• On the post: There's A Reason That Misleading Claims Of Bias In Search And Social Media Enjoy Such Traction

  Re: The Media is Anti-Conservative

  "But the media, in many cases, have been active in denigrating conservative thought."
  How much "conservative thought" deserves denigrating? Do you wish to defend separating children from their asylum seeking parents? That certainly deservres denigration.

  It could be worse...

  It's a good thing that Ajit Pai isn't in charge of the A.M.A. If he was, then blood-letting would be the most recommended medical procedure.

  Stan ( profile ), 10 May, 2018 @ 02:31pm

  What type of actors?

  They're paid...they show up without admitting that they're paid...they're instructed to not reveal who is backing them...they're given a script...a script about a current issue.
  
  AHA.
  
  They're "Crisis Actors"!

  Dateline Indonesia, 2021: Naruto, the famous monkey -selfie-photographer died sometime over the weekend apparently at the claws of a large Javan hawk-eagle.
  
  PETA has announced that they legally represent the children of Naruto and intend to pursue royalty fees from the photograph on behalf of Naruto's children. It is noted that Naruto passed away Intestate.

  Re: Re: "For Offending Himself?"

  I once asked a priest if 'jacking off' was NOT a sin for queers, since the places where they were likely to deposit their sperm would never result in a pregnancy. He glared at me & would not answer.

  "For Offending Himself?"

  As right Twitter should ! Because, technically speaking, from a Catholic Theology perspective, "Offending Himself" is a sin ! (venial? or mortal? I forget...)

  Re: cognitive dissonance.

  An interesting question: does being a lawyer in the government sector cause one to develop cognitive dissonance? Or does having cognitive dissonance drive someone into being a lawyer in the government sector?

  Consume defecation

  ACLU's Jamie Lynn Crofts: "It is, in fact, legal for anyone to say, ‘Consume defecation, Bob.'”
  
  Maybe legal, however...defecation is an act, not an end-product.
  
  Ingest feces, Bob.

  The importance of midle-schoolers

  "...besides the silliness that kids are worth hearing on complex techno-societal topic."
  
  The legislators who are paying attention become aware of how important an issue is when middle-schoolers show up to lend their voice.
  
  And since when is not having your information sources fucked with a "complex techno-societal topic"?
