Mainstream media is dead musings…

Julian Assange takes his revenge on both Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton.
That’s how all the good journalists used to be once upon a time.

1974.
All the President’s Men = Journalists go after President’s men.
2016.
All the President’s Men = Journalists are the President’s men.

Hillary Dillary sat on the wall,
Hillary Dillary had a great fall,
All the Prez’s spinsters and all the Prez’s men,
Couldn’t put Hillary together again.

Time for a sequel to The Fifth Estate on the 2016 US Presidential elections.

There is only one thing that keeps the mainstream media alive.
Not news.
Not analysis.
Not integrity.
Not right predictions.

These versions by Sunil Rajguru

The Real Wars on Terror…

Corruption = Financial Terrorism.

Wah wah WikiLeaks whistleblower, khoob kaha!

Pakistan = Centre of Terrorism.

US = Centre of Diplomatic Terrorism.

India = Centre of Financial Terrorism.

Berlusconi = Centre of Sexual Terrorism.

And Nobody’s really fighting against these Wars on Terror.

Random Thoughts 24

• Old age saying: Walls have ears.
New age saying: Firewalls have ears.
(The WikiLeaks effect)

• Let’s have just 6 months in a year from now on…
That way you’ll live twice as long and be hopeful that your luck will change every 6 months instead of every 12.

• A million websites and nothing to read…

• Indian batsmen are like lemmings.
If one commits suicide in an innings, all the others feel compelled to follow.
