It may not be as noteworthy as Time’s Person of the Year, but CNN appears to have actually stuck to the results of its voting in selecting WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange their “Most Intriguing Person of the Year.”
Though the article spends much of its time carping about whether Assange is a hero or a villain, and went on about his Saturday Night Live character, it at least acknowledges what is truly the big story of the year, the leaks.
Assange beat out President Obama and several others in the poll. The only person seemingly deserving comparable levels of attention, Pfc Bradley Manning, was once again snubbed by not even being on the list.
CNN tapped as 'most irrelevant media outlet on the planet'. The small if not totally inconsequential "Citizens Panel For Accuracy Concerning Media Hypocrisy" announced their choice at a 'newsy conference' just about noon today. Slapsbergen Tokenesque, speaking on behalf of CPFACMH, also stated for media consumption "Wolf Blitzer should be executed for impersonating a journalist."
Whoa, dude. Impersonating a journalist IS a serious offense, but execution is way out of line. Much more realistic would be twenty years of isolation at Gitmo with weekly "treatments" for his part in lying us into a war of aggression.
THE MOST TRUSTED SHILL ON THE TUBE
Judy Miller could be in the adjacent cell.
Yeah I know, that was over the top. Sort of a semi-comedic shot at Tucker Carlson. Hmmm, Carlson would be irrelevant. Seems that tossing the old 'execution' term around has become quite vogue amongst the media divas. Targeted for execution,Julian Assange and Michael Vick. The really curious part is, real treasonous dogs that SHOULD have been stood in front of a firing squad are roaming our planet free men and/or women.
Is probably a good thing that comedy is NOT my day job. However, gots to keep on trying. One of these days I'll make someone laugh so hard they'll spit coffee out they nose. Yup.
I'll second Alberts recommendation. Wolf should partake in enhanced journalism/interrogation sessions, much like a CPR dummy, to help freshmen torturers. Imagine how much "truth" could be extracted from this "trusted" actor.
Oh, darn! I voted for Kim Kardashian!
Well, I guess I see the logic in selecting Assange, but Kim K has better T&A.
Even CNN has more balls than Time. I'm only mildly surprised.
CNN? Oh lord. That's saying something.
Yeah, and Assange has the goods on Israel but won't tell us for 6 mos…just enough time for the Zio-Nazis and neo-Pharisees and Israel-first evangelical "Christians" like Hagee to campaign to shut down the net…Hmmm, why can't we hear right now that Israe-hell killed Rafik Hariri? Assange is a counter-intell pro and Wiki was a Mossad/CIA operation..Assange's lawyer? Oh, he handles the Rothschild estate in the UK…"Yeah, well if I was in trouble I would want the best too"…Yeah, right…does anyone still not know that 9-11 was a Mossad/Mossad asset/CIA false flag? If Assange will lie about that….
Don't expect WikiLeaks to reveal the truth about everything. It can only reveal what American diplomats and bureaucrats were reporting in diplomatic cables. Those will reveal their thinking (with all its fallacies and miscalculations), and what they claim to have heard, been asked or witnessed. The leaks are useful tools, but not a fount of all knowledge.
Also, your Mossad/CIA/false flag argument is based on what? Pure suspicion and speculation?
I wonder what would happen if Assange had and released "the goods on mohammadan behavior " across the globe …eh Bill ? Ya think maybe he would meet the same fate as the Dutchman ? Face it Bill 9/11 was p[lanned , facilitated and executed by your mohammadan brothers , as for Harriri , it is obvious to even low mentalities that it was Syria who had him asssasinated , and the Syrians …uh ..er …rather wisely killed their own General …just in case he might have been an embarrassment by hid implication in that assasination .
When are you gonna learn Bill , you cant blame non-gentiles for every thing you mohammadans do . Only dhimmis and appeasers buy your line of standard mohammadan propaganda . But I guess that's what Taqiyya 's all about ….eh Bill ?
And as far as Assange is concerned , I doubt he'd have the cahones to bring any dirt to light about what the mohammadans are doing and saying ….lol…after all no one need hack any computers to find that out …the mohammadans display that publ;icly EVERY DAY , in arabic amongst themselves , and then doublespeak their B.S. to western idiots .
If Assange were a "true champion " of humanity , he woud accentuate with or without his little "hacking habits " , the plight of christians in mohhammadan dominated lands like Egypt , Iraq ,Nigeria and the Sudan where christians are being murdered , raped , forced to convert , falsely accused of breaking sharia blaspemy laws. Just turn on today's news , Assdange is no less a coward than the western media , the Obama Administration , and the general populace of naysayers on this blogs , AND others , who remain strangely silent , as the mohammadan "CHRISTMAS GIFT " of blowing up churches and people on christams eve and day are unfolding before their eyes .
HYPOCRITES ALL …..and you lead their chorus Bill .
Assange runs a website that is a depository for whistle blowers. He reports what he is given. Sober up.
Indeed…and THAT according to personal agenda , not any "moral imperative " as pontificating ego would have all to believe .
Get off drugs .
Assange knows DAMN WELL , that the US will not hunt him down and slit his throat, as that is the fate of those who criticize and expose mohammadans ,and their deeds . He also knows damn well that the possibility of any prosecution by the US is roughly 60/40 in his favor .
So what kind of hero is he ? Why should he be considered "man of the year " by any western news rag ? Or anyone else for that matter . He's no better than one of Tiger Woods' whores doing a "TELL ALL " to ingratiate themselves for the sake of fame or money .No , the TRUE HEROES , go unsung , and "unnoticed " as they are persecuted and murdered by your lot . THEY are the men and women of COURAGE , not some cyber-punk with a large ego , publishing embarrassing gossip and personal opinions and assessments of western diplomats , who pose no threat at all to the "courageous Assange " and the dupes who think he is worthy of praise .
2011….may this new year expose the liars , propagandists , phonies , like yourself Bill . May the western media and present US Admin , finally grow some cahones , and expose the reality of where the murder , savagry and mahem is REALLY coming from and by WHOM . Pick up your newspapoer and read about the bombings in the past few weeks and months and years , and see WHO is actually killing more mohammadans that any US drone attack , more than any Nato or US military action . Face the hard and ugly truth about yourselves Bill . Make it a new years resolution …that you'll never keep
This entire Assange ordeal has been interesting to say the least. I had to wait for awhile to make up my mind on this I must admit. The final clincher for me on all this has been the recent uptake in media on Egypt. All of a sudden Egypt is the bad guy. Cant say I believe that Assange is an innocent justice and treuth seeker at this point. It is clear he is not part of a U S effort so I'm going to say he is a part of some other intelligence community. People forget there are more than just U S and Israel intelligence groups. British? It is odd that Israel has been deflected from any news worthy coverage.
What MSM harps on won't necessarily represent what's in leaks; they'll likely distract from meaningful leaks whether they are of the Wiki-type or not. I imagine Rick Sanchez has no comment.
There might be another explanation if there were a relative dearth of Israel-adverse leaks…?: an objector there might not see worldwide exposure as a preferred means of objecting… or might not see the Israeli press as a less favorable avenue. The Bush-era here would have greatly harmed confidence in the legitimacy of classification and the ethics of the press, but has there really been anything quite like it elsewhere? E.g., is IOF 'fed up' with Bibi and mistrustful of Ha'aretz? Also, (here) if they're already reading your mail, and they've already made (or spared) your career, you don't necessarily talk about them in the way one might expect…
Cnn "irrelavant " ? ALL media is "irrelevant ' as far as truth is concerned , and that includes 99.999% of internet blogs . All heavily opinionated and totally subjective , depending on the assorted agendas floating around .Go to Fox or Frontpage , and unless you agree Obama's a marxist communist cryptic muslim set on destroying America , you immediately become a 'persona non grata " , and your posts get deleted , same goes for the left side of the isle , go against the flo , the accepted echo chamber hype and b.s. and you're branded a troll or "agent ' of the opposition , whoever that may be . LGF is no better , where the moderators /owners ego trumps free speech .
So why exactly are YOU here?
entertainment . why are you here ? to change the world …one biased mind at a time , with your own biased mind ?
yea , that'll do it .
Ah!… You're one of those cats who shows up, as scheduled for one topic, only to vanish until he's called for again. Too many blogs to visit… so little time.
And they leave you as totally confused as your screen name sounds ……..lol….yea you got info huh ?
How come you keep on talking about Christians being persecuted in muslim lands? Never hear anyone talking about the illegal invasion and killing of muslims in their own lands by Christian armies. Don't you realise that the Christian persecution, if at all, is the result of their invasion and murder of muslims, not one or two or a few dozens, but hundreds of thousands. Wake up!!!
Christians have killed far more Muslims than Muslims have killed Christians. That is true both historically over the centuries and over the last decade.
That's a fractured fairey tale . Muslims have killed far MUSLIMS , than christians , hindus , buddhists , put together . In addition more Hindus were killed by muslims than any other group . Perhaps you overlook the Moguls , the slaughters perpetrated on East Pakistan by the Sunni West Pakistan in the early 70's , or the genocide of Armenians by the Turks , There have been 16.000 recorded incidents of bombings murder , and mayhem committed by muslims on various people on the globe , and THAT just since 9/11. Historically ….your head's in the sand .
That is understandable though , for criticism of this cult bears risk , and the fearfull tip toe around it .
We are comparing how many Muslims have been killed by Christians to how many Christians have been killed by Muslims. Besides the 500,000 Iraqi children killed by US sanctions in the 1990's, there have been untold tens of thousands of Iraqis killed by American military (most of whom are Christian) in two wars since 1990. Thousands of Afghans and Pakistanis have been killed by US military attacks in the last 10 years.
Oh really ? 500,000 is it ? funny though , there were no dsanctions on medicines or foodstuffs .Saddam kept on killing Shia in the south , building more palaces for himself and family , buying air defense sytstems from the Chinese , and rebuilding his armies ….and you say the deprivations visited upon his own people , initiated by Saddam himself , was caused by what ? The UN sanctions ? You need to get out of your ideologically biased cave , and find out what's really going on . [ and went on ] I challenge ANYONE to verify that phony propagandist figure of 500,000 and it's alleged cause . You IGNORE the HARDFACTS . I am not nor was not in favor or approval of the invasion of Iraq , however I am not ignorant of the facts , nor gullible to such propaganda .
The 500,000 figure came from the UN and was never disputed by the US. In fact, when asked about it, Madeleine Albright told 60 Minutes that the death toll was worth it. "It" being what is unclear.
Ok , how about Hindus in Kashmir , India and Bangladesh ? How about Siiks in Pakistan ? How about Buddhists in Thailand , Bahai in Iran ? Copts in Egypt ? Berbers in Africa , black Sudanese in the Sudan ?
WHO are they invading and murdering ? WHOSE ideology is supremacist to the point of the exclusion of 4/5ths of the human race as lesser human beings , all other ideologies inferior , not worthy of freindship or association ? WHO are you trying to kid Simmar Shah ? …..Yourself ??
Naive psuedo-intellectual B.S. , which falls flat on its face in the light of reality .You keep believing that , and the ignorance will never end .
Maybe an "earnest study " of the headlines in Phillipines , Indonesia , Thailand , Kashmir , Nigeria , Sudan , Algeria , Iraq , Iran , the Russian Caucusus , Egypt ,India , Pakistan etc , may help you face reality .
I think you are a Zionist intent on spreading hatred of Muslims. You can't wash away your guilt in killing, exiling and brutalizing the Palestinians. You are tribal and divide humanity into us and them, and "they" are unworthy of compassion, empathy or justice.
Well you "think " wrong , it is your own bias that leads you to such a conclusion . Now whether it is purposefull or just plain ignorance ….only YOU know that . There aremen who would tear the world down and watch it burn , and then there are those who wont , THAT is the only two divisions in the human condition . Again do an "earnest " study of what is going on around you , outside the confines of your comfortable living room . BTW , NOTHING was said of the palestinians , YOU are the one GUILTY of polarization , and that is because of your own personal bias . A bit self-introspection might do you a lot of good .
You my freind are just more proof of what I stated earlier , your sum total knoweledge is that which you absorb from blogs such as this one , because it is filled with opinionated people , no better or worse than those on the right , whose blogs will show you your mirror image . Get off your soap box and do some honest investigation of the events happening to "others " in far flung places , which YOU have never seen nor visited , nor can you even envision . I have been to those places and seen , and smelled the slaughters , these things are nothing new , although you may think so . You haven't a clue aside from your parroted talking points .Things you repeat but know nothing of .
Amused must have got his talking points from HQ. Shows up, like the spook they are, and will vanish into the night. So little time when you've got to check off all those blogs you've visited in your progress report. Git along now little doggie.
Mot , the more you speak , the more obvious your ignorance . Juvenile and sophomoric remarks , are all one would expect from a bigoted and biased mentality , such as yours. Good luck chump , and don't go thinking too hard , you might hurt yourself . Go get a room with "The Legendary Bill " .
