This is a weekly
series that will include a brief summary of the latest articles that have been
published on The Tribulation Times Herald-Exhorter. Hopefully, this will encourage you to go
check out some truly outstanding articles that have been published by a number
of truly outstanding authors. Moreover,
I hope this will also encourage you to want to become a contributing
member/author, as well. The “Hear
Ye! Hear Ye!” site explanation near the
top of the side-bar should answer many of your questions. Yes, this series also included an “SOS! (Spam
On Saturdays)” segment before, but it
just wasn’t working for me. Therefore,
that will be replaced by a republishing of one of the Trib articles.
[Birther Blather] has a video presentation of the alleged facts about President Obama
being born in Kenya, amongst other things.
[By Their Own Authority] has a video of a worship service at T.D. Jakes’ Potter’s
House.
[Whattahey?]
contains the first edition of a weekly series featuring really bad video
advertisments/television commercials that has been subsequently abandoned in favor
of bringing back Good, Bad and Ugly Ads.
[ESPN Additions] contains the ad with the running of the sausages.
[WhiteHeart Wednesday] contains a video and the lyrics for Carry On.
[Demonic or Divine?] has a video clip from a National Geographic show on child
preachers.
A
few nights ago, my wife and I were watching the 10 p.m. newscast on [KSPR] when
we heard the anchor report that there have been no confirmed cases of the [West Nile Virus] in Missouri so far this year, according to the [CDC]. We looked at each with a befuddled look on
our faces almost immediately. For we
were both sure that we had heard otherwise, and a visit to the CDC website a
couple of hours later [confirmed] our suspicions.
Ah,
but I took a gentle approach when I sent an email to the anchor. For I asked if we may have misunderstood what
she was reporting.
Well,
I didn’t receive an email back from the anchor, but she did pass on my email to
the lovely and talented Ms. [Mary Maloney], who did email me back. As it turned out, Mary had actually written
the copy for the piece on mosquitoes threatening to take over [Nixa], and I was
delighted with her freely admitting that all of the facts had not been
rechecked before going on the air with a story that KSPR had obtained some of
from one of their news partners. I was
also delighted with her expressing a desire to get things as right as possible,
and I thanked her for wanting to be more than just another very pretty on-air
personality.
Yeah,
she might have been just shining me on.
For on the very next night, it was reported that a judge had ruled that
Apple and Samsung had both infringed upon each other’s patents, and that Apple
would be owing Samsung a tidy sum of money, which left me with another
befuddled look on my face after hearing from CNBC and several other news
outlets a day or so earlier that Apple had clearly won in their lawsuit against
Samsung over [patent infringements], but Mary may have had nothing to do with
that KSPR report.
Just
in case I have left you with a befuddled look of your own, there wouldn’t have
been any confusion with the KSPR piece if it had of just included some
context. For the KSPR anchor was
reporting on a ruling made by a [South Korean court], which came after the
ruling for Apple in an [American court], which is what I had been hearing about
before.
Evidently,
the markets don’t hold much stock in the South Korean ruling. For the price for Samsung stock [plummeted]
anyway.
In
any event, I have no doubt that Mary has some work ahead of her in the fight
against misinformation, and I am afraid that she will not be able to get very
far with it. For it couldn’t have become
as bad as it has without someone higher up on the management ladder being
asleep in front of the monitor. We’ll be
watching to see how it goes.
