Note To Self: Don't Post A Blog Before You Have The Means To Research It. Also, Don't Post After Working 72 Hours.

So I learned something today in the blogging world.  At first I was going to just put in a note after having looked up stuff about Reuters after I posted about them. The more I saw the more I got pissed.  Then I still wasn't satisfied because the whole thing made me mad.  So I call redo.  REDO.


I ran across Reuters, which I know I'm super late, but I didn't really know much about them. All I knew about them was that they were a British company.  After looking them up, I realized I really don't like them at all. Which honestly, I'm not sure why I thought I could ever find a conservative or even balanced news site aside from Fox (which has its liberal moments) and drudge. 


Reuters, apparently, doesn't like to use the word "terrorists." Because "We all know that one man's terrorist is another man's freedom fighter, and that Reuters upholds the principle that we do not use the word terrorist."  That just makes me mad.  That's freaking stupid.  It's pretty obvious who's being the terrorists.  The ones attacking their own people usually. They've also been accused of having a bias AGAINST Israel, which I also, am not cool with.  Still like the pictures with the photographer's captions in the archives, however.  Not so okay with Reuters so far.  Stupid, liberal, biased. Like everything else anymore.


I did have a link to some pictures from Reuters. But I'm exhausted. And I really don't feel like linking to an even remotely liberal, lying, cheating website and complementing any part of it at the moment.  Some of those pictures were fantastic though. Maybe I will post about them at a later date. Nah. Nevermind. I'll just let you have your own opinion.


But now that I've changed this post at least 7 times, my eyes are half closed, and I keep finding more and more things to get really pissed off about, I'm just going to give you one of my pictures instead of this political liberal shit. Excuse my french. But seriously.  There's some freaking baby birds I took a picture of the other day.

Reuters is commonly called Al Reuters - (Al Jazzera West)

They certainly are a propaganda machine generally speaking.

So I noticed! haha yeah, I'm not so okay with these corporate people that run it..they sound like a bunch of people run down with political correctness and being "nonjudgemental" to everyone. Well, I don't know about you, but if you plant a roadside bomb and kill a bunch of innocent people, I'm going to think less of you. Just saying. That and they were apparently cutting things out of some of the photographer's pictures. That's why I like looking at the photographers personal portfolios. They're honest.

I don't know how up to speed you are with the propaganda machines, but in today's world, it is all out war. Reuters has serious financial backing. But yes, I enjoyed the series of photos. War time images are high on the list of the most profound. Most often life and death, compassion, suffering, all presented in the extreme.

As far as the propaganda machines, there is no limit - Image manipulation, and of course textual propaganda like water out of a broken dam.

I've seen pics of Michele Bachmann already that have been altered to make her look older than she is - as a small example.

For me, Reuters, Atlantic/rabid left, Salon/rabid left, CNN, CBS, NBC, MSNBC, Huffandpuffingtonpost, ABC, USA Today, Wall Street Journal to some extent, all shouting out the Emperors New Clothes story lines. Washington Post very left. Probably the most left of who more people still think are 'credible'.

Watch how rabid they get with attacking anyone who is conservative and who they think has a chance in the next election.
Except Romney - they love that liberal. I think it's going to be shocking how low they go, even for me that's been watching it a while. I'm sure you can make up your own mind.

No kidding... Like I said,the more I see, the more pissed off I get. There really is no such thing as any sort of publicized conservative, right wing news company. It's making me mad to a point where if you see this whole post disappear, you know why. In fact, I probably will. News companies just piss me off. Period. I made the mistake of not being able to see what I was looking at before I posted something on it. I can't watch the news hardly at all anymore.. I get so mad I'm screaming at the TV half way through one broadcast.
