Spin Cycles

For the past year or so I have been on my soapbox whinning about the media and how they have let us all down, with respect to Bush and Iraq. Rating and profits have eclipsed integrity and sense of duty...

CBC radio has done an excellent peice on this very topic... and much of it will surprise and sadden you (or perhaps not). Though all 5 parts are enlightening and eye-opening, it is the 5th and last episode that everyone should be aware of... [Note: You'll find each episode's audio along the right hand menu column, under the appropriate heading]

I've said it once and I'll say it again:

We are all just monkeys with car keys...

(and governments such as the Bush administration know this all too well)
