Newsquips Friday

…Updated through the day as I see fit… new items added to bottom today …

image  1.   Seriously.  No seriously.  That McCain headline actually appears in the CTV.ca News web site today.  … What you can’t take seriously is CTV News.  And liberals generally.  … (Hat tip to Matt B.)… 

2. Is freaking out and depressing Canadians their perception of their job description?  Over a CBC Newsworld channel banner reading “FEAR FACTOR” (one of 8,000 similar freak-out negative banners they present all day long, each and every day), we are informed by news anchor Nancy Wilson, exactly as follows:  “Our top story this hour—fear factor from Wall Street to Bay Street!!  Worries of a recession are dragging down the markets and news today of more job cuts at Chrysler!  The auto giant is laying off 25% of its white collar workers.  And we want to tell you that we are standing by to take you to Niagara Falls where Finance Minister Jim Flaherty will be talking about the Canadian economy. image That is one sensational view of course that’s where the finance minister is, and he’ll be speaking to the local chamber of commerce we’ll carry that speech live but certainly that view reminds us we certainly have seen cascading information and data—bad economic news—certainly it’s all been going down down down we’ve been looking at the markets uh not so bad as when the markets began certainly in North America but uh they are in the downward mode uh which seems very apt as we watch the Niagara Falls… cascading…”  …  And then to the news.  (So-called).  Have a happy day! 
image 2-b.  Serendipity… I swear I didn’t construct this or Photoshop it.  But during the CBC’s video transition from their scene of (if I’m not mistaken) our country and its economy tanking and going “down down down” like their video of Niagara Falls, and back to the focus on the anchor, this ghostly image was caught by my computer’s screen capture software—catching just the right frame …of Nancy Wilson going “down down down”“cascading” … in “downward mode”, which “seems very apt”… to me.

image3.   Liberals shield your eyes!  Here comes another hunk of what you call “lies”.  Yet another poll has McCain and Obama statistically tied, today.  The most accurate pollster in the 2004 election is the latest to suggest such a “lie” tie at this time. Obama: 44.8%, and McCain at 43.7%.  This poll by IBD and its polling partner, TIPP, was the most accurate pollster of the 2004 campaign season.  Recently, Associated Press released a poll which said much the same, as did the GWU/Battleground poll.  The media only refers to the poll by the liberals’ in-the-tank-for-Obama New York Times, and team-mate CBS, which shows a hideously out-of-sync spread, and which nobody truly takes seriously.  Except Henry Champ and the CBC, who can’t stop referring to it. 

4. “Stocks fall on fears of global recession” reports Globe and Mail today, as if it can read minds of investors.  Toronto Star reports “Recession fears leave markets black and blue”.  CBC Newsworld: same (see above).  And others of their ilk can also read minds.  Or should I say, others can also mess with and/or control your minds?  Well how about:  “AN OBAMA PANIC?”.  Nah.  Couldn’t be.  Don’t even consider it. Let the totally in-the-tank-for-Obama liberal media TELL you what is driving the markets.  (Also see my own mind control article).

image5. Remember that story of the girl who said she was robbed at an ATM and then the attacker carved a “B” into her face after seeing a McCain sticker on her car?  Apparently the “B” stood for B.S.! 

6. The New York Times endorsed Barack Obama today.  image - smiley

7.   The CBC “Newsworld” channel just laid out a “news” story about Barack Obama’s inevitable win on November 4, with an EIGHT MINUTE fluffball interview with… a Democratic strategist, who waxed Obamaton upon the friendly invitations offered by the CBC Newsworld anchor Andrew Nicholsimage - smiley

8.   FROM THE U.S.:  “Voters overwhelmingly believe that the media wants Barack Obama to win the presidential election,” a Pew Research Center for the People and the Press survey released Wednesday discovered. image - smiley Specifically: “By a margin of 70%-9%, Americans say most journalists want to see Obama, not John McCain, win on Nov. 4. image - smiley  Fully 90 percent of Republicans recognized how journalists hope Obama is victorious, yet so did 62 percent of Democrats and independents. image - smiley  This according to one of my favorite sites, the Media Research Center

9. And in these financially troubled times, we’re supposed to take voting advise from the New York Times?   Since I’ve opened the smileys door and the financially failing New York Times door hasn’t quite closed their for business yet, this made me laugh…. Standard and Poors, the investment ratings firm, has lowered the ratings for New York Times to “junk” status—“BB-minus”.  Meanwhile, ratings firm Moody’s said it may do the same.  It currently has it rated in its lowest investment grade category, “Baa”.  Or to put it in terms regular PTBC comment readers and writers who use our smileys understand… PTBC's SHEEPLE smiley.  … (A.K.A. our “sheeple” smiley)
