You are so right.

I just thought of another ‘New Headline’ btw:

New Headline:
Stop watching Cable News or we’ll shut if down for you.

Yeah, but that isn’t just like Bush saying nu-ku-lar instead of nuclear. /s

Well, he is no better than Bush when it comes to public speaking - he just has a better press and knows how to use a teleprompter.

The point is, when a Republican or conservative screws up, its FRONT PAGE NEWS like nobody EVER DID IT BEFORE.

AND, since OBAMA is SUPPOSED to be the “smartest President” ever, I guess its less excusable in HIM, no?

He's a lying, phony bastard and deserves all the ridicule we can give him. He is a fraud and an impostor.

At Seeking Alpha Jeff's bio says:
I spent most of the past two years writing the Mixed Media blog on Portfolio.com, the website of Condé Nast Portfolio magazine, which shut down in April. Before Portfolio, I covered media, entertainment and politics for the pop culture magazine Radar (another victim, sadly, of the great magazine recession). And before that I reported on media and advertising for the trade newspaper WWD, where I wrote a daily column, "Memo Pad."
Jeff, in a decade you'll be a middle aged white man. And some young jerktwerp such as you are now might be cutting you down just for that.

It's ironic -- future shouting middle-aged white man Jeff is today preaching on behalf of the crazy senile mainstream media.

Obama’s message was to “Stop listening to anyone but me”.

This asshat thinks that’s a good idea.

Dumb fark!

People are watching cable new with a laptop on their lap or adjacent to a desktop. They run-out, surf, look at the news print ineptitude and bias. News print is getting discredited with lightning speed. If a good percentage of page hits to a news print article coincide in a timely fashion with a cable news story => the gigs up.

Jeff Bercovici is listed as a Media Communist

...sorry I meant to type “Media Columnist” for ‘Daily Finance’

Question: If the “media columnist” says in essence, none of it matters...wouldn’t that put him at the top of the layoff list?

Dick went on to say that there was more to it. Why does he have to be so thin skinned? He can’t stand any criticism. He just wants us all to bury our heads in the sand and let him do his work.

The fact is, if you're getting your news from cable, you're getting misinformed. You're being told things are important that aren't.

Yep! It would be so much better to limit myself to that one daily paper laying on the lawn each morning. One point of view to digest and only on the subjects they like to write about! How simple!
