About Kate
Why this blog?
Until this moment
I have been forced
to listen while media
and politicians alike
have told me
"what Canadians think".
In all that time they
never once asked.
This is just the voice of an ordinary Canadian yelling back at the radio - "You don't speak for me."

Canadians elected Zoolander ... what could possibly go wrong?
He is simply the sugar-coated face of the coming Islamic conquest.
And just today... I think I am going to vomit.

Looks like a late attempt at ass covering, half hearted at best. You burnt the last of your credibility in the 60s or 70s. It's all denial for them since then.
...because the Liberal Party of Canada hired a shitload of journalists into government jobs after they got elected. If you assume many Canadian journalists are actually producing resumes while pretending it is unbiased reporting then you're probably not being overly cynical.
Not sure if it will make her feel better, but I don't expect them to know better. I expect them to witlessly burn the last of their integrity and credibility supporting a liberal politician, particularly one that most of them - male or female - would like to kiss. With lots of tongue.
Maybe someday the press will get a rare picture of Justine sitting behind a desk working. They would of course have to stage some papers and files and help him adjust the chair, maybe find a laptop somewhere and open it up and turn it on for him.

"I think I am going to vomit."
I can't decide who makes me want to vomit quicker, Hitlary, Pelosi or Trudeau.
Seriously I can't listen to any of them, even glance at a photo without feeling ill.
That is unbelievable. The write up on this is so utterly sucky that at first I thought it must be a spoof. This guy is supposed to be the Prime Minister -- not Mr. DressUp. I am embarrased and appalled by both the pretend Prime Minister and the ignorant journalists who gobble up these PR stunts. They are all complete jerks.
The Media are part of the Librano team, they helped get the moron Juthtin elected last time and they'll help get the hair turd elected next time too, no integrity, no problem. To pretend the Media were "fooled" by Juthtins PR stunts is insulting and ignores the fact that the Media are Juthtins personal PR team. The Media are also Juthtins protectors and fluffers. Criticize the imbecilic sociopath Juthtin and watch the Media run to his defense. The Media aren't "fooled" by Juthtins PR stunts, they're an active participant.
...because the Liberal Party of Canada is considering bailing out government friendly Canadian media by legislating a "Netflix" tax on Internet services that will be used to prop up old media. I guess screwing over consumers, robbing Peter to pay Paul, guarantees Paul will provide flattering media coverage.
We no longer have a "media". We have an organized, telecasting, sycophantic, fan boyz (and girlz) fan club. The "media" fawns over Obama and The Offspring Legacy PM. They're kewl, they're hip. They are Nobel Peace Prize Winners (Mark my words ... The Offspring will get his). The "media" wants them to know just how "in-love" they are with the "Greatest Leaders of the 21st Century". So, of course the "media" will broadcast, comment, and fawn over the latest PR stunts. It helps them avoid things like a struggling middle class, immigrant overload, and budget deficit. Awwww look how cute ... the healthy, fit, vibrant liberal leader photobombed the kids Prom. Awwwwww ... so cute. So hip.
Uhhhhhaarrrggghhhhh uuuuhhhharhhhhhggggurrrrp ... sorry the prefab media candid story about the PM made me hurl. Made me toss my cookies. Projectile reaction
"The media should know better but you don't" because even if you're being a super beyond the pale belligerent ass in the face of enemy politicians to the point of provoking assault it only makes the story better and increases the personal reward. News Reporters can be news generators too.

They still kiss a$$.
Pasty white people throwing wannabe gang signs - neither cool nor cute, and in another milieu could result in being condemned for cultural appropriation, and possibly hurt. Stop it. It's not funny.
The Spawn is a piety-regurgitating dynastic celebrity elevated to God-like status in the minds of the mindless. His Court Eunuchs are the media whose only aggression was last seen while working to depose Harper and his Party. This article represents an accidental spillage of conscience by an employee of the state-run and highly conflicted media.
