The Circus of the Media

I have previously expressed how I feel about the media. I don't think I need to reemphasize those feelings for anyone, but I don't think there is anything wrong with complaining once and a while either. The media is so hungry for a news story that it is getting pathetic. The Obamas did a "Terrorist" handshake? Please. Cindy McCain stole a recipe? Honestly. The election is all ready a circus, and the media has risen to the rank of ringleader, directing the audience's attention to where ever they see fit. In the center ring, we find pointless talking points such as Obama's version of a presidential seal! To right, you will find the wonderful race and age discussion! Don't worry, there are enough statistics to make all members of the family happy. And to the left, the smallest ring of them all, we have the real issues. Iraq?! That can wait. Tell us more about Cindy McCain's brownies!
