What was the point of Scherer's bitchy swipe at Anderson Cooper?
Yeah, maybe Cooper's a bit overexposed, maybe he seems a bit superficial and self-absorbed, but I would suggest that, deep-down, he probably does care about the subjects he covers as a journalist, and given the toxic state of US mainstream media, it's a refreshing change that he has even a minimal progressive stance.
Could progressives maybe, just once in a while, STOP with the whining about HOW a message is conveyed and GET ON BOARD WITH THE F#CKING MESSAGE ALREADY? Can we stop eating our own for a few minutes and get down to articulating, in simple words, REAL ACTION TO GET THE COUNTRY BACK FROM THE DOMINIONISTS AND THE FASCISTS and TO MOVE THE COUNTRY FORWARD TOWARD PEACE AND FREEDOM AND EQUALITY AND JUSTICE?!
Or are we just going to sit back and bitch and moan and complain about glib pretty-boy newspeople, even when they manage to do a little bit of good?
