The Media is Dead and No One Cares

I have a dilemma, as I’m sure most political junkies do.

I breath news.

Any sort of news. Mainly political news. It’s my drug.

So what happens when the quality of your drug really starts to stink? When it’s been diluted with a cheap substitute. Where it’s expected to have meaning instead I’m getting ad space.

I love the Nine Inch Nails song, “Heresy.”

That’s how I feel about the media.

I feel like I’m feeding on a dead carcus. With Tim Russert political news died. I’m getting cable this next week. Maybe John Stewart will help. Likely not.

But the truth is the media (and by media I mean mainstream media) is dead.

Ask me if I care.

P.S. I guess I should use this post to say, next week will mark both the 1 year anniversary of this blog and a renewed energy in drawing, along with a new theme.

PS to the PS: Can I just say, Wordpress 2.6 is awesome…it embedded this YouTube clip without me pulling my hair out.
