Krystal Ball: the snooze media’s future

I can see (and hear) the executive meeting in the publisher’s office where the print bigs ponder what to do, what to do, now that they have lost forever the bills-and-salaries-paying classifieds to the Net and the alphabets seek a remedy to Fox News.

Ah, ha, they hit upon it! If you can’t beat the Net, then you join the Net, and not with just a blizzard of advertising pop-ups on your snazzy new subscription site where subscriptions are going begging.

No, the brainstorm is more obvious than that (though, granted, snooze media executives have real problems with the obvious). It’s this: which Net product (after the ancestry sites, that is) makes the most money? Okay, after Fox. Exactly. Porn.

Well, you could go for a real merger, but probably not. How would you continue to get all those young PC women journalism school graduates to work for peanuts, for the thrill (down the leg and elsewhere) of helping the Democrat party maintain (and, yea, verily) expand its hold on America?

I’ve got it, yells the new up-and-coming rising exec star. And, lo and behold, the new angle is unveiled on MSNBC, the most blatant of the Democrat-pushing snooze sites: Introducing…. ta-da (or, more appropriately, ta-ta) Krystal Ball.

Krystal Ball. Get it? Sounds like a fifth-tier porn queen with grotesquely-inflated breasts, a MILF with pets, no children, who actually prefers DP? Yeah, okay, so what? That’s the point, ace. It’s the future.

Religious sincerity

It’s amusing to read the oh-so-troubled quotes from the seculars who get their panties in a twist whenever someone appeals to the Supreme Being, particularly when they link soldiers and deity in the same sentence. 

Mrs. Palin does it in a church youth fellowship video the establishment media thugs at MSNBC have scarfed up for their next round of Sarah-bashing. These people really are running scared. They prove it by not reading their own polls, which show that three-quarters of Americans are believers whether they attend services or not.

So urging the believing youngsters to pray "that our leaders — that our national leaders — are sending [soldiers] out on a task that is from God,” as Sarah apparently says in the video, is just common sense. Unless you’re a secular media heavy who gets all squirmey at the thought of anyone believing in a higher power than you.

Even Baby Barry prays to be "an instrument of God’s will," though his church bashes whitey.

Oh, Fred

Just chanced upon a picture of Fred and the Mrs for the first time. Had not seen her before. His "child bride" as his detractors put their 63-40 age difference. Indeed, she has liability written all over her commodious decolletage. Getting her into modest clothing would be a good idea, but it may be too late. Maybe nobody will care, but crotchety old prudes like me. I fear they will, and old Fred will flame out. Envied, I suppose. But not president.
