just watching pbs newshour report on record setting arctic heat, which in many places has reached 38C or 100F recently. an expert discussed some of the ramifications of the rapid and alarming warming of the arctic in recent decades/years. what struck me more than her words was the stupid and utterly inappropriate grin on her face at times, as if this matter is amusing.
i think american corporate funded and influenced media like pbs goes out of it's way to choose scientific experts to discuss ultra sensitive topics like this one specifically for their perverse ability/inclination to make dire pronouncements appear to be not dire. it's like a doctor informing a patient (s)he is terminally ill with a sick, idiotic grin. the message and the manner in which it's conveyed are completely dissonant.
hey, lady! wipe that stupid grin off your face! and corporate media, stop wrapping truth in the guise of bullshit, and vice versa!
corporate media. the slickest misinformation and propaganda that money can buy. as the world burns, america turns on it's tv's and is bullshitted to death/sleep.
