Dear FOX News, CNN, and other so-called “news” networks at Daniel Spisak on Technology

For the love of Christ almighty stop fucking talking about these subjects and all related stories:

Anna Nicole Smith

Brittney Spears

Fluff/Puff pieces in general

I mean, seriously here, you folks (the news media) are supposed to be the 4th fucking pillar here! And you’ve spent the last two weeks talking about Anna Nicole Smith’s death? What. The. Fuck. Now its Brittney Spears, thanks to her stunt with her hair and her yo-yo-ing in and out of rehab. In the meantime the mainstream media has let itself forget that its job is to report that which is newsworthy, not what they decide is to be newsworthy.

You think that your audience is stupid, when the truth is that you’ve MADE them stupid by feeding all of us this crap and calling it “news”.

For example, instead of reporting about ANS’s (pronounced “anus”) death for two weeks you could have been telling your viewership about how the government asked The New York Times to not report information about Dick Cheney’s trip to Pakistan. I guess Pakistan isn’t the model of stability Dick and Bush keep telling us it is?

How about doing some investigative reporting into things people don’t know much about, but really should? Like how many new bills proposed in Congress are not even written by the Senators themselves, but by their favorite lobbyists!

I mean, I realize there is such a thing as the “slow news day” but you could try a bit harder to fill the dead air with something at least informational and that doesn’t assume its primary viewership is retarded monkeys that fling their own feces at each other.

I am also involved in technology & security consulting firms as well as being a freelance technology writer. I also contribute to Jerry Pournelle's website and Chaos Manor Reviews.

This blog is one of the main locations where I do my writing, which is then automatically sent to my LiveJournal, VOX, and MySpace accounts. I can also be found on a variety of social networking and microblogging sites like Pownce, Twitter, Brightkite, Facebook, and LinkedIn.

If your viewing this site with Internet Explorer it may not look correct because IE is horrible about following W3C web standards properly or consistently. I suggest you try browsing the Internet with Firefox. It is much better and not as vulnerable to security flaws as IE can be.
