"A human being should be able to change a diaper, plan an invasion, butcher a hog, conn a ship, design a building, write a sonnet, balance accounts, build a wall, set a bone, comfort the dying, take orders, give orders, cooperate, act alone, solve equations, analyze a new problem, pitch manure, program a computer, cook a tasty meal, fight efficiently, die gallantly. Specialization is for insects." - Robert A. Heinlein
On the radio this morning:
"In London, over 40 so far dead and 350 injured as bombs went off in several subway stations and a double decker bus.
More on that in a couple minutes, but first, over to (name) for 'Celebrity Sleaze' here on (station name)"
And that, ladies and gentlemen, is a fine snapshot of what's wrong with the media today.
*Sigh*
