MONDAY MOANIN' QUATERBACK
By Steve Baxley
ok so its been a while since I last did a MMQB,sue me, things have really been crazed since our last get together.
so now lets dance!
Issue 1:OSCAR AFTERMATH, or a practice in free speech that SOME celebs didnt quite dig!
Ahh,the oscars, the pagentry, the glitz, the glamour..the complete unpredictablity of live TV, yes folks thats what this years Oscars were all about.
And while some parts were a snoozefest, teh one thing that could liven it up was the MOAOW, bigger than the mama of all bombs, this was the mama of all oscar winners, and it was one winner who blew up the kodak theatre crowd of celebrity glitz and hypocracy with a free speech bomb blast that stole the show.
Flint,Michigan native and now OSCAR WINNING FILM MAKER micheal Moore took teh Oscar for best Documentary for his film "BOWLING FROM COLUMBINE" and ripped right into a anti war /anti bush speech that even susan sarandon couldnt top.
Ohh man,even tho Chicago won the best picture, Micheal Moore stole the show , in fact he was the big talking point on ALL the morning shows cable and otherwise.
Not bad, but you gotta ask what would happen if EMINEM actually was there?? hooooo boy! what kind of controversey would be there.
And although there were more cheers than boos, the boo birds forget that what Micheal did was prove that in this country unlike others,we cherish the right to speak out and voice our opinions whether you agree or not, you have the right to speak out.
And micheal proved that last night...and we applaud him.
Issue 2:WAR ON TELEVISION: Why ??
Ok, now since ive blacked out war to war coverage for personal reasons , I only watch when there is something worthy of it, or I watch the 5 minute recap on KTLA news at 10,now as for who did good, I must admit i praise TELEMUNDO and FOX NEWS for providing the BEST coverage of this madness.and MSNBC the worst, and to use it to promote jesse ventura, NO THANKS very tasteless!
but still the FOX guys and gals have litterally taken this war from CNN.
Now i dont watch much,and already the coverage has hit its first slide, thanks to IRAQI TV and the arabic news channel AL-JAZZERA
who did the unthinkable by shhowing some very vulgar and sickening tape which decorum and taste I refuse to describe.
shame on a news organization and ANY news organization that airs that vile heartless tape.
Meanwhile we've already ot a new "scud stud" and both are on FOX NEWS, and both are embedded with our troops, yes folks we say congrats to Rick Rosenthal and Greg Kelly,and CNNs Bill Hemmer, and the female version of the "Scud Stud" which is the "Scud Babe" has to be Kyra Phillips of CNN..
Now sadly with all good things there MUST be your duds...and yes folks the "Scud Duds" are at BBC, while the female "Scud Dud" really has fallen from the starlight MSNBC/NBC NEWSer Ashleigh Banfield or "SMOKESTACK BANFIELD" as we call her, she has really not been taking good care of herself, and it shows, since her DEMOTION ,shes only been seen briefly on nightly news and has been mainly bagged in Ft. Campbell KY, in fact her bosses have said that her time has run out and that after her gig, she's been ordered to "stay at home until her contract runs out"..How the mighty have fallen...and not so gracefully either, she was to become the lead for War coverage, but after a spat with her boss erik sorenson, which she (through her agent) denied,her days at MSNBC were numbered.
And they were clinched when she had a public disagreement with a manager at a texas hotel when she was covering the shuttle disaster,she now does speaking engagements for six figures...and mainly its all about her! so dull..
