Yesterday, ABC lead news anchor Charlie Gibson admitted that he didn’t know the story of James O’Keefe and Hannah Giles (as of yesterday The Beefboy’s Gladiators of the Moment) who single-handedly disgraced ACORN by posing as a pimp and a prostitute and exposing the corruption of this government funded organization. This story has been developing for Two Weeks and caused ACORN to lose the 2010 American Census and lose funding from an overwhelming vote in the senate. Even if you’re not following the story of O’Keefe and Giles, how can Charlie Gibson possibly miss the fallout? Where is the mainstream media, or Old Media on this story?
Gibson is a good example of what’s lacking in Old Media. If the guy who is the LEAD ANCHOR of ABC News knows less than the Beefboy, then Old Media has just proved conclusively how radically irrelevant they are. I don’t have a news team, so I’m not going to suggest that you should get your news from me, but I will say that I don’t exist in the Old Media Bias Bubble, so what you do learn from me is unhinged from the myopic vision of a handful of people in the elite entrenched establishment.
If Gibson is ignorant of the ACORN story, which is one of the most fascinating and important stories of the year, then what else are he and his buddies at NBC, CBS and editors at ancient newspapers missing? And what are you missing by paying attention to Old Media? What irrelevance are they currently parcelling out to the masses? If they can miss a story that has corruption, fraud and felony in a multi-national organization, funded by United States Tax dollars, then they can miss ANYTHING!
Gibson just passed the torch to cable news, the internet news of Matt Drudge and Arianna Huffington, to the boys and girls of Talk Radio, to the infotainment shows of Bill Maher and Stephen Colbert, and to the Beefboy in the blogosphere!
Thanks Charlie. You and your posse are done. Viva le Beefboy!
