Coming Soon đ At the beginning of April, youâll be
introduced to a brand-new GoComics! See more information here. Subscribers, check your
email for more details.
Since itâs news in the digital age with all its trappings, I would have expected the stand to have some form of âWant to know more?â Click-bait device.
126,000+ deaths, he played 2 rounds of golf over the weekend, his VP is stumbling between asking people to wear masks and insisting the administration has beaten the COVFEFE-45 virus. Nothing to see here, folks, move along.
A friend in Austin has had to break off communicating with an upstairs âneighbor.â Seems the woman has charts, graphs, websites, as well as the names of all persons and groups who have perpetrated this world- wide coronavirus hoax, and is bent on letting all her neighbors know the âtruth.â
Sadly, itâs getting so that I donât believe the news. While I know that is a no brainier for some people, I grew up with Walter Cronkite and the Huntly Brinkly report and I respected them. Now its all opinion pieces and slants. In of world of instant communications and the internet, I feel more ignorant and confused than ever. Sad, that.
I remember a military saying that went something like this: âIf you believe 90 % of the bad news and 10% of the good news, youâll be right 99% of the time!â I may ne wrong on the percentages, but you get the idea. (not Ikea)

One of the signs attached to the news stand says, âWhateverâ. Seems appropriate. Makes me think of the song âWhateverâ by Godsmack. ;)

If they move along without stopping, then there is no way for the news to spread.

Strangely enough the viral news never have an impact on reality. Itâs all superficial and doesnât leave any traces when itâs gotten old.

There are no longer any sources in the public view that can be trusted. News is defunct and replaced by opinion and innuendo.

The advice is useful for people who wish to be reassured, rather than informed.

Like any ânewsâ service with the letters âFâ or âXâ in its name?

When the news source is malicious, you need to be Afraid.
