On the subjects that interest me I try to see both sides, sometimes more. If not I would just be reading a "partisan" newspaper/website and get all my views from it. I'm trying to get more knowledge on the subjects that are of interest to me and ignore the rest. I cannot deal with all of it anyhow.
Now : can I influence what happens in Palestine, terrorism in the world, famine in Africa, floods in Indonesia ? Do you really think YOU have an influence on wall street, unemployment, fire, civil unrest and shootings on the highway ?
More importantly : does it make you happy or a better man to know about these things ?
So, my choice is to try to live happier and become "a better man" by not considering what does not make me better.
Wall Street news sure doesn't. Recession and unemployment news also sure doesn't. BTW I now consider them mosty as futile, unnecessary things. (Look : Wall Street dropped 2 points. Do you even know what it means ? Is it in volume ? in value ? Is it really important to you that instead of trading 100 million shares they only traded 98 millions ? and why should I care ? Euronext should care, are they are paid on share tradings. I sure am not...)
So instead of lamenting myself in front of impeding doom and damnation of the working class on TV I tend my own garden and help my family, my friends, my neighbors and the strangers I can help. And it makes me happy, in a more simple, less cosmopolite way.
I know I cannot solve global problem, but hey, if we all do something small localy it's better than if we all do nothing globally...
Please, next time CNN or Fox news makes you feel a better man do not hesitate to contact me. To save you some time I'll tell you now when that can possibly happen : When you'll stop paying attention to all those alarmist, futile things and try to find what is really important to you...or you can keep on being a global sheep playing the damn rat race....
Remember those ads and trailer you couldn't fast forward through with a "compliant" dvd player ?
I remember that MOST of the dvds I took from a rental had them, while the shop version had it more rarely... at the time "all I had" was a dedicated "compliant DVD dedicated pci card" and a "mint" PowerDVD on a PII233 that was too weak to play dvds on it's own (compaq deskpro...anyone remember them ? ended up being my "home media player" way back then...along with one of Logitech's early wireless keyboard / mouse combo... I remember buying 10 meters ps2 cable so that the receiver would be under the couch)
The moment I heard about dvdcss I invested in a larger HDD and learned to divx or vcd/svcd my rentals (thx Doom9, DVDdecrypter, DVD2AVI,TMPG) to escape the mandatory viewing of a POS movie trailer I didn't care about. That and that RIDICULOUS fbi warning telling me I couldn't broadcast this movie in a Prison or Petrol Platform. lame.
All this to say... Nowadays they might be the same (didn't go in a rental in a looooong time), but long ago they weren't (/rant finished; as you were)
I have the same feeling on that point. I even stopped watching tv news 18 months ago as all I had to look at was :
1 - Israel/Palestine 2 - Terrorism/War 3 - Wall Street collapsing 4 - shit I didn't care enough about to keep interested
As usual. And for most points I had the "news" some time before on a webfeed.
The only advantage of newspaper is that the journalist is conveying an OPINION on what he reports. TV is giving the same slanted view, but no arguments carefuuly constructed, just a "here is what we think you should think about it in 90 seconds"
I now use google news and tailored it according to my points of interest, and I get the luxury of actually ignoring the rest as I DON'T CARE. I also get to make my own opinion.
"A specialist is someone who knows more and more things on less and less subjects" So I am now a specialist news consumer.
I should bomb something...and it's off the cuff remarks like that that are the reason I don't log chats

Hmm did you hear the rest of the story on that one ?
They refused "free" gm crops seed and food, worked hand in hand with ONU to alleviate the food crisis and started sowing "normal" traditionnal seeds that were acclimated to their country.
And now they have almost reached food production independence.
Can you remind me what happened to the neighboring countries that accepted ? They actually sowed some of the grains and now pay the "Monsanto Tax"...and even if short term they solved the problem, they now are in a problematic situation for years (possibly decades) to come.
Have a look at a documentary called "the world according to Monsanto" and what happened to some south american countries that are now paying millions, if not billions to Monsanto each year. Also have a look at Indian (like in India) cotton farmers and their suicide rates since they switched to GM cotton. One of the worst human tragedy of the decade, because they had to buy fertiliser and RoundUp, got more heavilly in debt and commited suicide when they couldn't repay it all.
And I'm not even a green activist. I just despise the bastards from Monsanto...
Well, I do remember my father telling me about playing Cow Boys using sheep jaw bones as pistols, because they were poor. He also told me about using old wheels to run along with a stick and a nail to direct them.
One thing that you could look at to understand the situation is the change in expectation in Bhutan since they "opened up" (The only country in the world that calculate Gross National Happiness...) Now they have TV. And ads. And higher expectations about what they "need". And less happiness...
