It does prove that celebrity is more important than knowledge and actual worthy of sadness
We are (overall) sitting ducks...

Or, OP, some people do care. The media reports what they think will make people watch. People want to watch this.

I agree OP.
How many of you got choked up about the recent death of Harold Greene? How many of you even know who that is?
But hey, let's saturate the airways with the news of an entertainer's death, like he was the greatest person ever.

Nah, advertising revenue via the amount of people who tune in couldn't possibly drive what is broadcast.

I just saw a report that he did a bunch of USO shows so the military appreciates his effort also.  He made a lot of people laugh.  Depression is a serious thing.

You a super cereal smart and speshul for paying attention and ignoring all the distractions.



How do you do it?


















































Sorry to tell you, but pop culture is here to stay.  Don't be a slave to it, but being ignorant of it isn't the answer either.

In all sincerity, you guys who think the media is actively trying to do anything on some massive scale are crazy. Yes, the media is predominantly liberal, and, yes, most of them want you to believe their guy is the best guy. But above all of that is money. And the media's only real competition for that money is each other. If they work together with some master plan to enslave us all, none of them make more money than the others.

Basic logic says the tinfoil idea is dumb.

I think that's the point OP it trying to make. People would rather hear about celebrities than what is actually happening in the world. A distraction.

Have to agree with the OP here. I don't need to hear every detail of how this man killed himself. I think it is irresponsible for the media to cover a suicide the way they have. I would be very surprised if there is not a spike in suicides because the media kept this person's death at the forefront.

Sure, Fox should report it
IMO, not Hannity or O'really, or even Kelly, maybe Greta
The other networks sure, I don't expect much from them as far as integrity goes, but they don't make much of a point of having any.

Exactly.  I also love it when people take the effort to post just how much they don't care about something/someone.

How long before the conspiracy theories are formulated?

So OP what's your take?

Illuminati took him out because he was gonna reveal their initiation secrets?
Was Skull and Bones mad he talked about that one time at Bohemian Grove?
Perhaps the Reptilians caught him snooping in the basement of Denver International?

Wait - I got it - he was about to expose the TLC, BBG and NWO unified plot to install Agenda 21 in every community?

In all seriousness, I do wish the "news" companies would sprinkle a little news in with their nightly tmz update, but I understand the money/viewership side of it.

None
Its Entertainment news
Not news I expect from the few newscasters I watch or listen to
They have B.S. departments for that
I'd respect if they mentioned it and moved on

Yes, because it's totally fucked up that the news would take great concern in the death of a man who entertained multiple generations. I grew up with the dude, like most of us. I was sad as shit. It's okay to take a break for a day or two.
