More: Erik Rush Thinks Obama ‘Murdered’ Everyone on Missing Malaysia Airlines Plane

On Tuesday, we noted that right-wing conspiracy theorist Jim Garrow — a notorious con man who now claims to be a former CIA agent — believes that President Obama blew up the missing Malaysia Airlines plane as part of a “jihad” against China.

He said the military forced the plane to “land by wire” at a base in Diego Garcia and interrogated the “nerds” aboard the jet who are working “for China designing ‘classified’ leading edge computer/internet control software and are carrying the matching hardware with them on the plane.”

Occasional Fox News guest and regular WorldNetDaily commentator Erik Rush, who frequently hosts Garrow on his radio show, laid out a very similar conspiracy theory about the missing plane on his blog and radio program yesterday.

According to Rush’s source (we wonder who that could be!), the US took control of the plane, landed it on Diego Garcia in order to interrogate technicians aboard who wanted to “abscond to China,” and then had everyone on the flight “murdered.”

Rush does add, however, that the pilots may have been protected because they are “pro-Islamist.”

Sorry, but the only way i could prove that wrong would be to show the real target of the Swan station magnet. But you haven’t got the clearance and as far as I know are not a close personal friend of Snowden or Greenwald. So you’re just going to have to trust me that you’re wrong.

Twitter usage SOARS in Turkey, let alone succumbing to ‘the ban’

The number of active Twitter users, as well as tweeted messages, has soared since the Turkish government blocked access to the popular social media platform, new statistics have shown.

The access to Twitter was blocked in the first hour of March 21. According to figures published by social media rating agency Somera, over 6 million Turks tweeted from March 20, 23:00, to March 21, 12:00. Only 4.5 million tweets were sent the previous day in the same time slot when there was no blocking. The difference correspondents to a 33 percent rise.

re: #24 Fairly Sure I’m Still Obdicut

I have never understood this either. What irks me is that the media and all the people who run it tell us we don’t want in depth reporting. How the fuck would they know if they don’t give us any? If they can spend days telling us ridiculously asinine and insane shit about this plane crash, then the sure as fuck can give us in depth FACTUAL reportage about economics, science, health, government etc. But no, that would take FUCKING EFFORT, thought, actual WORK, which apparently none of these fucks would have a clue about if WORK walked up and slapped the shit out of them. Or a freaking advertiser might have a fit and pull an ad. Advertisers need a venue just as bad as a TV show needs advertisers. It’s all bullshit, and honestly, it’s making the whole fucking country stupid.

The “media” gave us fucking Kardashians and then told us we’re somehow supposed to care about them. And when idiot drama queen shitheads watch and do care then somehow that means everyone does. NO. Just NO.

Georgia just made it ok to carry guns in bars and churches and god knows where else and made it just fine to test food stamp recipients for drugs. But they said no to cannabis oil for pediatric seizures, seizures which could kill little kids. And since it looks like we could maybe end up with a Dem governor, they went ahead and took away the governor’s power to expand Medicaid. I’ve had 10 things, yes TEN, go horribly wrong in 72 hours at home (everything from a comical outcome of baking a birthday cake for The Teenager who will be 20 on Sunday, to a messed up customer service mess with Sprint, to my dog having a serious staph infection in her lady parts, to a couple of huge unexpected bills that I can’t pay to, oh hell where is my beer…) and I am right on the verge of going medieval on someone’s ass.

Honestly, instead of protesting the idiots in government, it might be time to start giving these fucking so called “news” outlets total unrelenting hell. Flood the motherfuckers with emails, phone calls, and do what the wingnuts do to get their way, intimidate these assholes. Gah! It’s Beer O’clock, I give up. ((((sob)))

In my more cynical moods (i.e.,most of the time), I think the neutering of the media in the US is basically by design.

Back in the days of the robber barons, muckraking journalists were able to bring visibility to abuses, which was a significant driver for reform.

Having learned the lessons of history, oligarchs that have no interest in covering any stories that lead to them have mostly captured the media.

It comes and goes. Partisan “news” has a long history. Ironically the mainstream news from the 60’s and 70’s was fairly straight forward but it was a period of political extremism, assassinations, bombings, etc. The modern trend of mainstream outrage journalism more or less started with Bill O’reilly . Using the Tabloid format with a pundit character. “Real” news doesn’t get much ratings and networks just copied the tabloid/pundit business model. There are some signs that it’s becoming less popular cable news needs revenue and will serve up whatever makes them money.

So much of “news” is just PR. Instead of in-depth reporting and/or analysis, it’s easier to use fill-ins with absolutely no news quality or merit. Reporters themselves are sometimes the news (more often every day, it seems) and get their own interviews, treated more like Hollywood “stars” than simply news readers, where they reveal their neuroses, their habits, more about themselves personally than anyone really has a right to know, or particularly wants to know.

Is it just an outcome of a society that seemingly is becoming more narcissistic, where we elevate the individual so much higher than what we need to know (the cult of celebrity) and neglect what affects the common good?

“We intend to accept the first applications 8 a.m. Monday morning,” Gleason said.

“Gleason said he also expects to have ministers available in the office to make the marriages official. He said at least one minister plans to be in the office Monday. Follow this link for information from the Clerk’s office on what couples need to bring to the courthouse.” More

Our politics are based more on loyalty to TV characters than the politicians themselves. Socially, I don’t think we’ve seen anything like this since the televangelists.

Of course, you can see right through the hypocrisy of the “tech giants” who want to maximize their own profits (in addition to looking like the “good guys”) and minimize their own responsibilities to the public by insisting the govt take the blame for “invasion of privacy” which is their own bête noire simply because of their very own existence in which your privacy is more often than not exploited by those companies themselves.

“But how to accomplish that goal remains an open task. A report prepared by a presidential review panel last month suggested that the records be maintained by telephone companies or a third party. But companies have been resistant to that idea, fearful it could sour their relationships with customers and prove expensive.”

Comes down to the economics of 24-hour cable. Too expensive to put on an actual NEWS show 24 hours a day. So they cut the foreign offices. Then the reporters in the US. They call for people to send in iPhone pictures for regional bureaus. Eventually, it comes down to a huge, fancy studio, a few bookers with Rolodexes, and some spokesmodels. They should be running CBS Evening News from the ’60s, half an hour a day — never did get commercial hour-long news, the advertisers never did go for that — because it’s just not that interesting for commercial ratings. But you can get a hardcore audience of zealots if you don’t have news.

News is facts, and facts is hard.

I think the rescue for 24-hour news is to be about 50% normal programming. News cuts in if something is really breaking. The CNN that covered the bombing in Baghdad live didn’t get complaints, they got numbers. And you have maybe four or five hours a day on the 24-hour channel. Documentaries, history, and Anthony Bourdain can have the rest. Get those blondes off my TV.

Early in the Ukraine crisis, when the Europeans were working on bringing Ukraine into the EU system and Vladimir Putin was countering with threats and bribes, one British analyst lamented that “we went to a knife fight with a baguette.”

That was three months ago. Life overtakes parody. During the Ukrainian prime minister’s visit to Washington last week, his government urgently requested military assistance. The Pentagon refused. It offered instead military ration kits.

Putin mobilizes thousands of troops, artillery and attack helicopters on Ukraine’s borders and Washington counters with baguettes, American-style. One thing we can say for sure in these uncertain times: The invasion of Ukraine will be catered by the United States.

He goes on from there.

You know, because arming Ukraine and getting ourselves into a military conflict with Russia would be easy. It’s not like they can land any missiles on American soil or anything.

$80 Million for 6 Weeks for Cable Chief

Robert D. Marcus became chief executive of Time Warner Cable at the start of the year. Less than two months later, he agreed to sell the company to its largest rival, Comcast, for $45 billion.

For that work, he will receive nearly $80 million if the deal closes, a severance payment that amounts to more than $1 million a day for the six weeks he ran the company before agreeing to sell.

To what end? What are we arming up Ukraine for? You start shipping that much hardware into Ukraine, Putin’s only conclusion is going to be (with good reason) that we’re arming them to go to war.

re: #115 Amory Blaine

There is no theory of the value of labor that can get to $80 million for six weeks work in putting a deal together.

Instead, CEO compensation is embezzlement made legal. Proximity to large piles of cash somehow legitimates a fraction of that amount ending up in the pockets of executives, independently of performance in nearly all cases.

As such, their doubling down on such interventionist foreign policy shows they’ve learned nothing, and are probably past the point of no return.

They really don’t get the simple central fact in all this: the US cannot run the world indefinitely in a unipolar configuration. With only 4% of the world’s people and territory, the US just doesn’t have the resources to maintain such an ambitious project much longer.

Please don’t tell me you believe in corporate governance at the BigCorps as anything other than a sick joke.

I worked for a law firm in DC that specialized in stock offerings.

While I don’t claim this to be anything but specific to the story at hand, it really wouldn’t surprise me if it was highly indicative of any number of companies.

The company at issue designed high-traffic web sites for national companies. My boss was the corporate secretary, and took the minutes of the Board of Directors meetings. I typed up the minutes.

While I’ve never been the brightest bulb in the closet, after transcribing minutes of several of those board meetings, I soon came to realize something that I thought at the time was amazing: much more effort went into how much these guys were paying themselves (“how can we attract and keep talent”) than into the actual design of the websites or even the process for acquiring new projects.

It should come as no surprise that this company left our law firm holding the bag for a very large unpaid legal services bill (“we’re getting a new round of investors, and we’ll pay you as soon as that round of financing is complete”). Calls to the company’s California headquarters went unanswered, and eventually my boss lost her job as a result of the shenanigans that went on.

I’m a lot closer to you on this one in defining this as “embezzlement” than I am “good corporate practices.”
