Can't stop the signal...

Found this macro in [livejournal.com profile] ontd_political's Iran post-election Live Thread, and just had to share!

title or description

Especially apt when coupled with this photoshopped image! ;)

And a couple of quotes from Andrew Sullivan, since I'm here and they tie in with everything else:

"We have entered a wilder world of journalism, one with less control over primary sources and places a greater burden on readers to use their critical faculties instead. However, it is not by its nature a less truthful world. Our understanding and accuracy will only improve the more citizens participate, whether by creating, aggregating, or interpreting the aggregation of the instantaneous raw observations,"
- David Ogles.

A reader writes:
Over the weekend, attempting to get the latest news on the Iran elections aftermath, I tuned into 'The Situation Room' on CNN. Wolf Blitzer began the program with the latest on the David Letterman/Sarah Palin uproar. Meanwhile, last night the Daily Show led off with the story of the Iran elections. They've even had a correspondent actually in Iran the last couple weeks.


The world is a strange place these days.

I love that photoshopped image-- LOL!

And that's why I so rarely bother watching CNN these days!
