Irrelevant Reporting: Obama Bumps Head: This Is Newsworthy?

Video here.

Meh. That was just a tiny bump. He obviously didn't hurt himself. What's the big deal?

Oh, of course... if it had been Bush, they'd angle the story in such a way as to say, "this confirms what a bumbling idiot the President is" or something like that.

But in Obama's case, it's just another excuse for the likes of the Big Media (in this case, MSNBC) to do yet another fawning, looooooong report on what their exalted Messiah is up to today. The irrelevant, non-issue little, tiny head-bump is just an attention-getter. Once folks see the video, it's a disappointment. Ok now... back to watching stupid teens doing stupid, dangerous stunts on skateboards, breaking their bones, cracking their skulls and squishing their balls on railings... Obama's accidents so far aren't worth viewing, but the Big Media will report his every little boo-boo just to have an excuse to fawn over their heartthrob...

Next thing you know, CBS or ABC will have a headline, "Obama farts", "Obama burps", "Obama picks his nose" or something like that. Bet the Big Media wishes he was a woman so they could take his picture getting out of a car pantyless, like Britney and Paris, whom they just looooove to fawn over, too, and would probably make just as good a President as El Dumbo.

Let's have some real news reporting. How about digging up the inconvenient truth on Obama like you guys, the Big Media, always dug up the dirt on Bush, and how you guys are digging up irrelevant, trifling, hardly-damning dirt on Canada's newest Aboriginal Senator, a Conservative (you just know that the Big Media will dig around in the backyard for anything weird, given the guy is a Conservative!).

As for Mr. Brazeau, he explains, and one can see that it's the Quebec Revenue people who ought to be blamed, not Brazeau:

He said he was aware some payments have been late "in terms of processing, but I have always issued cheques to Revenue Quebec in which they internally deal with forwarding the payment to the mother of my child."
As if unionized bureaucrats never are a little late in getting the job done... trust me, things move slow as molasses in such places as tax departments...

Nevertheless, it does make for a great, damning headline to make a Conservative look bad, the Conservative Party look bad, the Prime Minister look bad, and make irrelevant the fact that he appointed an Aboriginal to the Senate. Obviously, the appointment tends to make Harper look good, especially as the Hard Left and the militant Aboriginal propagandist lackeys of the corrupt Aboriginal politicians who're angry with Mr. Brazeau for exposing their corruption have accused all Conservatives as "hating Aboriginals" and so on. But anything that makes Conservatives look good, well, the Big Media, as it's predominantly Hard-Left, dutifully gets right to work around the clock trying to dig up dirt on them, and will headline even the tiniest of irrelevant findings which they'd never care to report if found out about a Leftist.

Boyoboy... talk about irrelevancy masquerading as "news". Instead of all kinds of news the Big Media refuses to countenance every day. You know what I'm talking about... unless, of course, you've been brainwashed as has the typical Leftist into illogically believing that if it isn't reported in the Big Media, then it didn't happen. And believing, also illogically, that just because something is reported in the Big Media, it's necessarily true and necessarily relevant and important and worth thinking about.
