We should pay more attention to objective indicators. Like those indicating healthy amounts of TV watching.
What a difference the internet makes. Thanks Al Gore!
Good job. Now, millions of people have seen the cartoons whereas a week ago it was mere thousands.
Now Fox news has put a face up as target.
Any news paper that prints the photograph of a person who is targeted by terrorists is aiding those terrorists. The US MSM does it all the time. Zimmerman and the cop in Fergusion are examples.
Unfortunately when these people get their heads blown off as a result the photographers/reporters are NEVER held responsible.
I can remember when the first airplane hijacking occurred. Mom said “That should never have been reported!” How right she was. We have been paying for that ‘freedom of speech’ ever since.
The “MSM” – and small, local newspapers or media outlets for that matter – aren’t really journalists any longer with integrity and moral fortitude to report the truth. Secondary education, i.e. college, no longer stresses the quest to do investigative reporting and to be non-political. Today, everything must be about what angle you’re coming from, and argument/counterargument AKA truth is de-emphasized. Right or left (primarily left) ideology of the media affiliates doesn’t matter: just move copy so they can remain profitable.
Charles Kuralt is rolling over in his grave.
It is understandable, however, from the perspective that since the 1980’s and the advent of cellular telephones and video games the population’s attention span has been ever shortened. Advertisers used to have ten seconds in which to capture a potential consumer’s attention; now it’s three. The media has limited time and space in which to make a case for the reader to keep reading and thus are forced to sensationalize their reporting. That wouldn’t be so bad if not for the fact that younger demographics are ill-equipped to think critically, be inquisitive, and do more than merely accept at face value whatever is being spoon-fed them by “news” organizations.
There’s a reason why “low information voters” are no better than non-voters.
“…There’s a reason why “low information voters” are no better than non-voters.”
Low information voters, those who make decisions based on headlines and emotions rather that thinking are much worse than non-voters. They are the ones that the Fabian/Progressive count on to wipe out the USA.

Dead on!
This has puzzled me for a while, if images of Muhammad have been banned how do we know what he looks like?
So I did a little research.
So The Guardian says
“To many Muslims, any image of the prophet Muhammad is sacrilegious, but the ban has not always been absolute and there is a small but rich tradition of devotional Islamic art going back more than seven centuries that does depict God’s messenger.
It began with exquisite miniatures from the 13th century, scholars say. Commissioned from Muslim artists by the rich and powerful of their day, they show almost every episode of Muhammad’s life as recounted in the Qur’an and other texts, from birth to death and ascension into heaven.”
and Wikipedia says
“The permissibility of depictions of Muhammad, a prophet in the Islamic faith, has long been a concern in the religion’s history. Oral and written descriptions are readily accepted by all traditions of Islam, but there is disagreement about visual depictions.[1][2] The Quran does not explicitly forbid images of Muhammad, but there are a few hadith (supplemental teachings) which have explicitly prohibited Muslims from creating visual depictions of figures.[citation needed]
Most Sunni Muslims believe that visual depictions of all the prophets of Islam should be prohibited[3] and are particularly averse to visual representations of Muhammad.[4] The key concern is that the use of images can encourage idolatry.[5] In Shia Islam, however, images of Muhammad are quite common nowadays, even though Shia scholars historically were against such depictions.[4][6] Still, many Muslims who take a stricter view of the supplemental traditions will sometimes challenge any depiction of Muhammad, including those created and published by non-Muslims”
I liked the sometimes challenge bit.
In keeping with the spirit of ‘freedom of speech’ here is a link to a piece on Mohammed’s image

I post this only for those who will not be offended and enjoy freedom, for all others look away now!
And France has a new hero.

‘Anonymous’ Member Calls For Revenge On Terrorists For Charlie Hebdo Massacre
Guess only Muslims watch CNN now, nobody else does http://edition.cnn.com/2015/01/13/living/muslims-respond-hebdo/index.html
“Zineb El Rhazoui, a columnist at Charlie Hebdo magazine who worked on the new issue, told the BBC that the staff didn’t want to express hatred toward the terrorists who killed her colleagues.”
Madame Rothschild tells Lasha Darkmoon in a private email that the Charlie Hebdo affair was a Mossad operation.

Anti-Semitism runs deep in Europe
Also unfortunately it runs deep in the USA.

Dr. Paul Craig Roberts was Assistant Secretary of the Treasury for Economic Policy under President Reagan and associate editor of the Wall Street Journal.
I find this sad because it poisons the well. My husband considers the man a whack job.
Dear Lasha,
… I am a resident of France and have many friends in high places in Paris and elsewhere: not only do I believe that the Paris circus was not done by the Muslims, I actually know for a certainty that it was not…
A few young ladies whom I know and who are active in the Palestinian movement—with your own countryman, George Galloway, I believe—explained everything to me two days ago. This whole event was organized in Brussels. Even Ahmed Merabet, the first French policeman purportedly shot dead, is actually not a Muslim at all: his real name is Avigdor, and his brother’s name is Maloch, recently changed to Melek—all of them crypto-Jews in the service of Israeli intelligence, i.e., Mossad agents.
Avigdor is in Buenos Aires right now, and will remain there for six years, a standard operating procedure with those deep in Israeli psyops. After this he will resurface with a new identity, by which time of course the populace will have forgotten all about the Paris attacks.
That’s rich! Something else for the Truthers to drool over. 😆
