RE: Daily Thoughts: False Advertising — Nothing to Do With ANYthing!
You're so right my friend, we live in an age of deception. I've just passed the age of a half century myself and I can vividly remember a time when news, advertisements and entertainment were separate things; now it's all infotainment and infomercials... Those are actual words now! It's not myself or boomers I'm worried about in this respect; there are generations that know nothing else and I've no idea what this will do to them...
Anyhow, thanks for this wonderful article! 🙏🏼
Thanks for stopping by, and for your kind words!
The whole notion of "if it BLEEDS, it LEADS" in the news media is pretty old, but now we are artificially manufacturing blood and unrest simply for the purpose of gaining ratings and selling something.
Every time I come across yet another insane idea portrayed as "newsy," I can't help but have scenes from the movio "Idiocracy" playing in the back of my mind...
