Extra! Extra! Canada is different from
the U.S.! 12/02/2003 11:02 AM
Canada's View on Social Issues Is Opening Rifts With the U.S. (note: NYT reg. required) "Being attached to America these days is like being in a pen with a wounded bull," Rick Mercer, Canada's leading political satirist, said at a recent show in Toronto. "Between the pot smoking and the gay marriage, quite frankly it's a wonder there is not a giant deck of cards out there with all our faces on it."

Being different is good, right? Right? Vive la Difference!

Robert Kennedy, Jr.

Robert Kennedy, Jr. 11/25/2003 08:39 PM

Robert Kennedy, Jr. - Interviewed at Salon.com...

I remember where I was when THEY killed his uncle.I was a freshman at the University, playing chss in the student union, and I distanced myself from the horror by declaring "That's politics."  I dropped out of school and went to San Francisco a few months later.  I read Ayn Rand, drank chianti, ate bread and cheese, hung out in North Beach, and later in the year I hung around the edges of the Republican convention, celebrity spotting.  I was appalled by Goldwater's nomination.Even then, before the CO and CO2 had risen to levels that threaten human survival, I was pretty well convinced that nuking the DMZ would be a bad thing for the enbvironment and every living thing on the planet.  I wasn't yet 21 so I wasn't faced with the choice of voting for Johnson (who many of us suspected had a hand in the dirty deed on 11/22/63) and voting for Goldwater (who many of us believed was crazy as a loon).

I don't remember where I was on April 4, 1968 when THEY killed Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.I was in school, I know.  Two months later when THEY killed Robert Kennedy the whole thing was at such a bizarre level that reality was suspect.  And I watched and I protested and I made loud ineffective noises.  There were optimists among us who went "clean for Gene" McCarthy. It was a lost cause. 

From the day after King's death through the end of 1969,  the Black Panther Party was decimated by the FBI.  There was no effective news coverage of the events.  It wasn't until the National Guard killed white students at Kent State in the spring of 1970 that our national consciousness began to shift.  And even then, people were reluctant to call Richard Nixon a liar. 

We were saturated in the truth and nobody would print it.  Today, conditions are a lot worse.  Robert Kennedy, Jr. is doing what he can on the environmental front.  Here's some of what he has to day in the Salon.com interview: 

Why isn't the media being more of a watchdog...

The consolidation of American media over the past decade or so has dramatically diminished the inquisitiveness of our national press. There are now only 11 companies that control virtually every radio outlet, every TV outlet and every newspaper in our country. And because of that media consolidation, the news bureaus are no longer run by newspeople. They are now corporate profit centers. Most of these companies have liquidated their foreign bureaus, because they're expensive to run. That's why you can't get foreign news in this country; you have to go to the BBC. And they've liquidated their investigative journalism units, because that kind of reporting is also expensive. So news has become the lowest common denominator, which is why you see sensational crime coverage, you see Laci Peterson and Kobe Bryant all the time, you see celebrity gossip, which is really just a form of pornography. And you see murders, which is really just another form of pornography. You just see notorious crimes, and you don't really see much substantive news anymore.

The Tyndall Report, which is the service that analyzes what's on TV, recently surveyed the environmental content on TV news and of the 15,000 minutes of network news that aired last year only 4 percent of them were devoted to the environment. And this is at a time when we have a president who is dismantling 30 years of environmental law, and when we are going through a global environmental crisis, including mass extinctions comparable to the disappearance of the dinosaurs. Global fisheries have dropped to 10 percent of their 1950s levels, the ice caps and glaciers are melting, sea levels are rising, and one out of every four black children in New York has asthma.

Today, while hundreds of thousands of britons protested the presence of George W. Bush, American media focused all its bandwidth on Michael Jackson.

Senator Kennedy on "no-fly" list

Senator Kennedy on "no-fly" list 08/20/2004 12:33 PM
Mark Frauenfelder: Senator Ted Kennedy says he was denied boarding on three shuttle flights in one month, because he's on the federal "no-fly" list of terrorist suspects.

His aides had to call Tom Ridge three times to get taken off the list. Imagine how hard it would be for one of us lesser human beings to get taken off the list.

A Transportation Security Administration spokeswoman's explanation makes me even more nervous about the way things are being run be the feds. She "insisted Kennedy 'is not on the list, not now or ever. His name was similar to someone else's alias.'" [italics mine] Is it supposed to make us feel better that innocent people can be denied boarding for having a similar name to a suspected terrorist's alias? L ink (Thanks, Paul!)

My goal was to see one of the two IMAX movies that are showing there. (Exercise for the reader: try to find the show times in advance on their web site.)...
