a new world

Our world has become so political that no one can even enjoy the pleasure of a winter storm. A winter storm used to be the news for days. Now a winter storm only transfixes us for hours, as we wait for the latest news on Anna Nicole and Brittany. Although that is not political, it shows where our media has shifted their attention. They have gone to the more sensational, attention grabbing headline stories, that, we as a nation have tended to grasp and hang onto. We as a nation need to look through the bullshit of mainstream media, and grasp the idea of alternate media that reports the real events of our ever-changing world. Look at events in Russia, Venezuela, Cuba, China and the Balkan region, to name a few. Africa has become a breeding ground for fundamentalists. We are a very vane culture that has a lot at stake, that effects the welfare of the world. We need to grow up and understand the realism of our current crises.
