Katie Couric is our BuzzFlash Media PUTZ of the Week

But as distasteful as what Williams, Gibson, Stephanopoulos, Brown, and Hill did, what Couric did was such a violation of journalism ethics that she should be fired. America's "sweetheart," Katie Couric isn't just the anchor of the CBS Evening News, she is also the managing editor.

How Did We Get The Media We Have?

What happened to our media over the past three decades? How did we get to the point where someone like Molly Ivins couldn't get a job as a receptionist at most major papers, while conservatively-correct dingdongs like David Brooks, Michael Gerson, Debra Saunders, William Kristol, John Tierney, and Ben Domenech are considered smart hires?

I can afford to pay 600 dollars for a phone

But i have no brain cells....

I have so called bricked my ipod touch 3 times and have gotten it back fine each time - using the same functions for reset they would use at the Apple store or repair center. Easy to use
The Google
to find that info as you should be able to if want a IPhone.

The Wiretapping Bill: President Bush, and Fear, Lead the Senate Off a Cliff

The results were so thoroughly precooked that there was no surprise in the Senate’s 69-to-28 vote today to gut a law that has protected Americans from spying by their own government for 30 years. Still, it was distressing — and depressing — to watch Congress wrench Americans’ civil liberties back to where they were in [...]

US: A Force of Stability in Iraq - Oh who are we kidding

My point? High profile killings by US forces in Iraq go by with little news coverage (more examples below). Countless similar incidents occur without any comment.
