The media is hyping up and
sensationalizing the story for ratings and to sell newspapers. Because they are
NOT covering the story in a responsible fashion, they are causing
people to panic and fire hundreds of others, downsize, not spend as they would
normally, etc.
I was in English major in college, took journalism AND
I've worked as a professional journalist. I only hope I can help make the
public aware of when the media are SUCKING ASS.

  • story:
    The media is quick to sensationalize a story, so
    don't believe (everything) you read, most of it is crap. ....


To be honest, perhaps
it's the conspiracy theorist in me, but I truly believe
there's someone else at play here other than
the media after $. I unfortunately believe that there are possibly some
parties out there that would LIKE our economy to go into the toilet.

Some very powerful parties.
They would
benefit from our economy going
into the crapper. I will not say who I think they are publicly yet.
Let's
all be aware and DO WHATEVER WE CAN to keep it afloat and have the
courage, resourcefulness, and perseverance to make it THRIVE again once
more. Did you know that with all the media articles about financial
doomsday out there, I did a yahoo (& google) search on "how to
help our economy" and only a few tiny comments from random blogs came
up??? 




The media is putting forth NO articles
about solutions, just
CRAP. WE (& our
future generations) DESERVE MORE THAN THAT. What we think about, we bring about
- SO THINK POSITIVELY on this one.
....

....FOCUS.. ..ON.... THE SOLUTIONS. It's very, VERY important!!!
So, if you can, go shopping. Buy what you can!!! Whenever you are able to buy
what you CAN afford, you are HELPING our country and future. Continually
focusing on the positive on this IS VERY, VERY IMPORTANT.

Thanks,


Jackie
