Charlie Brooker on the American News Media. Funny (via cbsection8)
and this comment:
“Trust me, our news has only gone downhill from when this was made. Glenn Beck is prettymuch on the brink of lunacy on live TV. I swear, I think Im gonna tune in one day to him in a leotard eating his own hair.”
Warren G. Harding invented the word “normalcy,”
Also the lesser-known “bloviate,” meaning, one imagines,
To spout, to spew aimless verbiage. He never wanted to be President.
The “Ohio Gang” made him. He died in the Palace
Hotel in San Francisco, coming back from Alaska,
As his wife was reading to him, about him,
From The Saturday Evening Post. Poor Warren. He wasn’t a bad egg,
Just weak. He loved women and Ohio
