Dishonest hackery

Did you hear ATF agents are going house to house confiscating guns? No? That’s because it’s not happening. But you might think so if you get your news from the dishonest hack who “rules the world” of your stupid media:

If you click the link attached to that screaming headline, you’ll find a Houston Chronicle article about a specific program tracking down the US origins of guns used in Mexican drug cartel murders. But somehow I doubt deranged, paranoid gun-hoarders bother to click the links.

Jesus H. Christ. No wonder our media establishment sucks big green gators. This is nothing new, of course, but every now and then it makes me want to pour a half gallon of cheap vodka into a roasting pan with 12 packets of blueberry jello mix and put myself in a coma by doing the world’s biggest jello shot.

C’mon, Betty.  To refer to Drudge as “media” is a stretch.

I didn’t mean to, Sunkawakan: Drudge is a hack, but the so-called legit media invest him with way more credibility than he deserves, apparently on the strength of his being right once on a blow-job story. That’s what I find both pathetic and disheartening.

And if there’s anyone whose ears perk up at the sound of a blow-job, or of burly, muscled federal agents in skin tight uniforms and mirrored sunglasses conducting house-by-house full cavity searches, it’s Matt.

Don’t you just love the word hack?  Some definitions:

1. a person, as an artist or writer, who exploits, for money, his or her creative ability or training in the production of dull, unimaginative, and trite work; one who produces banal and mediocre work in the hope of gaining commercial success in the arts: As a painter, he was little more than a hack. 

2. a professional who renounces or surrenders individual independence, integrity, belief, etc., in return for money or other reward in the performance of a task normally thought of as involving a strong personal commitment: a political hack. 

3. a writer who works on the staff of a publisher at a dull or routine task; someone who works as a literary drudge: He was one among the many hacks on Grub Street.

Hopefully enough paranoid creeps will click on the link. When they see that the guns in question allegedly belong to Mesicuns, their heads will explode.

Betty - great minds think alike, I posted the same thing over at Politijab.  Both Drudge and the Houston Chronicle (original article) used the headline to stir up the masses regardless of the body of the story.  It obviously had the desired effect because the comments section is riddled with references to gestapo and SS.  Idiots.
