I rarely sit down to read the Real Media Riffs column from Media Post, but today, for some reason, thankfully, was an exception.
Taken from the article "TRUTH IN MEDIA."
"Let's be honest with ourselves. You want the truth? You can't stay awake for the truth. We want police chases, mudslides, and world leaders caught on tape having sex with their daughter's piano teacher. We don't give an embryonic rat's ass about Enron, the Middle East, or the new Campaign Finance Reform bill because it's way too complicated and depressing. When we come home from a hard day at the office, all we want is to kick our feet up on the coffee table, pop open a cold one, turn on the television, and be reassured that everyone in the world is more fucked up than you are, especially the people reporting on it."
Good stuff Pumpkin, good stuff.
