US President Barack Obama has criticized new forms of technology, such as the iPod and the Xbox.
The leader, while addressing students at Hampton University, Virginia, also pointed out that journalists and news outlets these days have become obsessed with superficial coverage.
"You're coming of age in a 24/7 media environment that bombards us with all kinds of content and exposes us to all kinds of arguments, some of which don't always rank all that high on the truth meter," the Telegraph quoted him as saying.

He may be trying to short Apple stock. Hillary did this during her attempted coup on the medical industry. The went out and trashed the pharma industry while at the same time shorting their stocks. Or it might just be Apples turn on the chopping block. They are targeting every industry in this country except the compliant media.
Gad! Every morning I want to sharpen my sword once again.

I’m an Alliance player, myself, and a Priest, nonetheless!
You FR fools! Don’t you know that the only factual, truthful and reliable news comes from the Ministry of Truth?
All other news is lies, deception and outright rebellious illegal propaganda against “The Chosen One” and his politically correct Utopian plan for all of us proles.

He gave her Royal Majesty the Queen an ipod filled with his speeches.
I’ll sum up Zero’s speech in just a few words:
LISTEN & OBEY ME YOUR SUCKERS!!!!
As I wrote in an another thread, young people aren’t going to like this. They like their Xboxs and iPods. Obama sounds like their parents telling them to turn off the XBox and read a book or something.
I wonder what all of those young people who voted for Barry because they thought he was hip are thinking now?
Obama uncool? That is a real problem for Zero.
